Re: 13 Fishing Defy Black Crankbait Casting Rod 7'4" update

I have omen black 1st gen and while it is pretty heavy it is nice rod. I have 7’1” 2 piece version and it is still going strong although I haven’t fished it for a while. It was subjected to hell of an abuse, bushwhacking and wading rivers for pike.

Re: Z man/elaztech bag material.

Does anyone know which plastic the bags Z man baits are sold in is made from? Polyethylene modified with silicone release. Turds have similar (or so it seems) composition, but in different ratio (more silicone than polyethylene character) plus, and this is surprising, some styrene butadiene rubber ...

Re: Recommend a 2nd spinning rod? medium light 7ish' $300-$400

Save extra 100 and get 76mml steez. One spinning rod to do it all.
If you are going down the rabbit hole, you might as well jump all the way.

Re: Sandals

Do you wear socks with them??? I get a lot of crap for it but, so much more comfortable. That sweaty/sticky feeling is non existent when wearing socks Dude no... just no ✋😂 #transatlanticagreement Best part...I am not even trolling.

Re: New Poison Adrena

Howdy All, I've been contemplating picking up the 7'2"H Adrena for Jack Hammers. Most of the time I'd be fishing the 1/2oz model plus trailer (generally a Zako). I'd be fishing open water with some grass developing as our short window of warm weather here progresses. For those who've handled this s...

Re: Vibration analysis between '20 Met and '21 Zillion

Spectacular work. How about quantification of rod sensitivity with different variables? For example: rod, reel, line. Place the sensor where your hand would be normally resting on the rod. Letting some line out (10-20 feet?). Initiating some form of ‘tick’ on the line or directly on the rod tip and ...

Re: New St. Croix Bass Rod

These are nice lookin rods. Hopefully some jerk bait model in the lineup.
