It will continue to go down. As crazy as it sounds, they need inflation in their country.

Haha.

Balance is key, but after last winter fishing Berryessa about 85' deep, spool size and speed is more important to me. A 2500 or even a 3000 would have helped me land more fish. I lost a few fish each trip just because I couldn't keep up with my 2000 Certate. Fish start shooting up and you really rev...

I was finally able to get out and use my Edge 705 during a hot day (91 degree) and the handle was surprisingly okay to the touch. I too had that concern with it being in the Cali sun.

Mnbasser, you hit the nail on the head with the breweries. I would add Knee Deep on that list. But if I had to have only one, it would be Russian River Pliny the Elder (Pliny the Younger is too exclusive).

Just my 2 cent, I wouldn't use a rod at that sensitivity for top water. Just seems like a waste of money. But to answer your question, I wouldn't see why not if you are fishing minimal coverage.

My tackle bag weighs 50lbs. I wish I could go back in time and just buy what I actually use, such a waste of money. I only use 10% of it lol. Very impressive that you can use 10%. I used to bring everything also, but started scaling down and beginning to bring only the essentials. I bring a 3700 bo...

Could be a good thing or a bad thing I opened this thread. They have really good deals on their reels. Especially the Certate 2510PE-H.

Okuma Helios. Won it, so I owned it. No attention to details. The seams on on molded parted were deburred, such as the line guide. The gears were rough and not what a $200 reel should feel like. In addition, I had an old Okuma spinning reel from the late 90s. Forgot the model, but that thing adverti...

Either way, one look at the Wild Header and you can see that the blade is too close. It looks like a well-made bait, but the color choices I saw look pretty limited and the price is a little high. You should just buy them from Japan when they are available. I thought the price was actually reasonab...

I'm looking forward to it. It's essentially a small diving swimbait size lure. I could see it doing damage in the CA Delta during high tides.

I have the 50th with carbontex and it still doesn't lock down. But it is smooth as heck. I remember this topic being brought up, might have to do a search.

Thanks Ty. The Tatula rods are pretty good for the money and they too are on a SVF blank. Maybe not the high end SVF but even the high end Steez SVF is nothing to talk about so it really doesn't even matter. I like Daiwa's rod actions but their price and sensitivity is way off. Agreed. I have been ...

Another one in the dirt. A little dirt on the fish is a lot better than the way I see most Elites treating fish. Flipping them into the boat and letting them bounce around, rides in the livewell, weighing in bins, etc is all rough on a fish. Impact is far worse than a bit of dirt. http://i1310.phot...

I'm a soccer fan and have a great appreciation for the game. They are essentially taking the least coordinated part of the body to use. It is the anticipation of a goal that keeps me glued. U.S. have to do it tonight to get top seed. No draw please. As for flopping, I think it is great to watch. Not...
