  9. Went to pick up my reel on Friday because i need it for a fishing trip but the reel hasn't been repaired yet,when I walk in to the repair shop I see about 5 quantum reels on the counter and the owner is on the phone with a client. Owner gets off the phone and we started talking and he tells me all the reels have the same problem as me a defective anti-reverse bearing,and the bearings are still backorder and not sure when he will recieve them.
  10. I fish in the montreal area.I have all the proper tools and I use a cradle for release. I went out this morning had 4 attacks on a seducer but couldn't land them.Is there a lure for fishing in heavy weeds? Thanks for the advice about proper release.
  11. I'm pretty sure I have the right equipment: Rod:Techna AV med/hvy Reel:Abu Garcia Record with 65lbs line
  12. I wanted to know if one company's model is better than another. It's not that i don't want to spend the money (muskie=$$$),i don't want to but a bunch of lures and have 75% of them hanging in the tackle box. I want to get 10-15 lures.
  13. I would get an Abu Garcia or Shimano,parts are easy to get.I just bought a Abu Garcia record 61,looks like a good solid reel.

  16. This is the email sent to quantum "me" Hi It is NOW May 27....I would like to know WHEN you will recieve the anti-reverse bearing for my reel?? "Quantum" These are due in at the end of next week. Thank you, Not even a sorry for the backorder,any compensation, regrets or replacement of the reel. No more Quantums for me,Shimanos from now on
  17. I have been waiting 9 months for an anti-reverse bearing for my energy pti reel that's not even a year old,sent emails every month they say it'll be in next week. I recently sent an email about their poor customer sevice and never got a reply. If you get a new reel stay away from Quantum. I am still waiting for the part....
  18. Got the box at Staples,it was on clearance for $2.00 I thought about making it that way but didn't have enough surface to glue the tubing together.I kept some space to store pliers,gloves and other stuff.
  19. I'm just started to fish for Muskies and didn't want to have a huge box for 50 lures and don't think i will buy that many, so i made my own total cost $12.00,the box was on sale. Here are the pics. Box $2.00 Square tubing $10.00/10' Cut to 10" Grooved on table saw 3/16" Final prouduct

  23. I want to start making leaders for muskies,I have dbl barrel sleeves but not sure what is the proper way to crimp them. I went to 2 different tackle stores and i get 2 different versions. One told me to crimp in the center with the sleeve like this 00 and the other told me to crimp the round part of the sleeve like this 8,what is the proper way?? Will these pliers be ok for crimping??
