Re: How do you tell what rod is for which lure?

Put in a set of Abec 5 ceramic bearings and a set of carbontex drag washers.

You can get both at Smooth drag. 1-888-206-4656

Re: Worm Rod GLX, IMX, or dropshot crucial for chronarch 50m

Try a 703C or 704C Dobyns rod. They are both great worm and jig rods and would be a nice balance for the MG.

Re: Is it just me or is the XRap..

I agree. I have a box of JDM pieces of garbage jerk baits that I have never caught a fish with.

I like the XRaps. They work great for West Texas Fish. It may be the fish here do not understand the rattles that are in the JDM jerks. :lol:
They don't have the Cowboy slang to them.

I fish Lilly pads a lot and use 50LB Power pro braid.

Re: plastic frogs

I have used the Spro frog for a few years and liked them until I got out fished 3 to 1 with Splash using a Snag Proof frog. Both my frog and his Snag Proof were about the same color and we were fishing the same lilly pads. The snag proof got a lot more blow ups and hits than my spro. I will have a f...

Re: Dobyns 703c/704c with Revo Stx

If you want to go to 1 oz then the 704C is the rod. The 704 is my # 1 jig rod. I use 1/4 to 3/4 oz gigs with trailers on it. It is one sweet rod for what I use it for. I use my 703C for plastics of all size and rig it T/rig most of the time with a 3/16 to 1/4 weight. A Revo reel will be a great reel...
