Re: Yamato shad shape worm?

One of the best lures that flies under the radar.

Re: Hook of Choice for Senkos

For some reason I still like to use Northland wacky hooks in red.

Re: T3 for frogs

I used my T3B for frogging and never felt like the frame couldn't handle it. Sometimes I wonder if it's just perception or reality.

Re: Abu Revo Gen 3

Cal, I'm wonder as to why you guys gave AG a free pass on their max brake result? AG advertise 20 lbs and TT only tested it to be a bit over 10lbs. What's the explanation? I know 10 lbs is plenty for LMB but that's false advertising. Many test you guys do is just a few pounds off but this one is alm...

I stock up on 1.5 but I agree when the bite gets tough I grab the 1.0.

Re: Need Help Picking New Cranking Rod

Yeah I would trade my gl2 for a X10 in a heart beat but the wild card is hard to beat. Plus I got lucky on a crazy deal. Bought a rep sample for 50% off. Then had an issue with it and the shop honor the swap but there wasn't a rep sample left so they swapped it out for a brand new one. Smiling ear t...

Re: Abu Garcia: Gen 2 vs Gen 3

The thumb bar not engaging was a gen 3 issue. It seems like it was a common problem. Well maybe it was just a coincident but I don't even know that many people that personally ownes them and 4 of 6 people sent theirs in.

Re: Envy Black 6'7 Medium

6'7 medium is what I use for flukes and jerkbaits. I always cast with two hands and the rod is long enough for me. Great rod but IMO for those two techniques you can get away with the Omen. My lineup is filled with Omens and the two Envys are for bottom contacts. If you can afford it though go for it.

Re: Need Help Picking New Cranking Rod

I had the Phenix X10 and sold it. Now I have a Gloomis GL2 845cbr. The X10 was more sensitive IMO but not much more. The only thing I like more about the GL2 is the wild card. It probably does look better too if that matters to you. That GLX is looking very tempting but the cost is too much for me.

Re: Abu Garcia: Gen 2 vs Gen 3

Has AG fixed the thumb bar issue on the gen 3's? I was going to get one but I know 4 people that sent their reels in so that turned me away. To AG's credit they did take care of the issues.

So it's been a while, has TT made a decision which reel they are doing a review on?
