Re: Project T 22: 2 new Tatulas
How's the casting distance on these? Do they feel choked off? I don’t think so. I finally tried a tatula and think the distance is fine. If anything, I find that the latest tatula requires a bit more care than the effortless free floating sv spools in zillions, etc, particularly against the wind. T...

Re: Casting Ned Rig rod
For what it's worth, I've been able to fish the Steez AGS "Finesse Game Special" a bit recently and it is indeed a great casting finesse rod. I didn't have any issues maintaining bottom contact with 1/8oz heads + worm in 18 feet of water, but on deep offshore spots (22-25 feet) I'll go to a 3/16oz ...
