Re: MegaBass worm rod

The P5 SD has a slightly lower lure rating on bottom end 1/4 than both FMJ and 2016sd. Everyone talks about how light they are so maybe a bit less power, putting the rod in my zone I use the FMJ as my main 3/8-1/2oz jig rod. I fish the same jigs on the P5 SD, both rods don't feel that different to ...

USDM super destroyer?
2016 SD, I also had USDM FMJ, that's what got me mixed up. Thought they were very similar power/action wise. A bit stiffer than I like.

Re: MegaBass worm rod

I've used these, and tbh I find the dark sleeper rod is just a waste of locker space compared to a lot of other standout models in the P5 lineup. The dark sleeper rod can be used as a worm rod, but excels at tight line sensitivity... where as the X-bites is the slack line rod. Don't get me wrong, t...

Re: Your Path to the Dark Side ...

Only a sith deals in absolutes. Haha. I Got to try a steez 71compile-x and daiwa fuego around 2010. My friend said he got the rod off an eBay auction for $300. It ruined me, the sensitivity, the way it handled fish was, so much better than the BPS rods I had. I immediately started researching and fo...

Kistler klx tech spec

Picked up 7'3' MH Texas, Carolina, jig and a 7' M dropshot finesse during their buy 1 get 1 sale. I was in the market for another spinning rod for walleye and a Texas rig rod for guests. I love my helium 7L/MH. I thought they used same blank different guides for helium and klx so I figured at $150 a...

Nice reel! Have you ever tried strike king rocket shads?! Your post reminded me of them. Super low profile spinner bait, almost like a beetle spin. Used to slay on them bad boys. Gonna pick a couple up now that I remembered.

Re: Googan Squad makes the best rods

Money is calculated different by genre, average view duration and all that. I wanted people to get the info they want without dealing with ads. I don't need the money from what it would bring in. Now with ads being there anyway, kinda makes me mad that I can't choose not to have ads. Anyway... The ...

Re: Googan Squad makes the best rods

My gripe with YouTube fishing channels is all the filler. People intentionally talking in circles to make videos longer for the purpose of add revenue. 'The reel test' is unbearable, 40min vid with 15 adds for 5min of valuable content. I like the Punch Fishing guy but he does the circle talking too...

Re: Is gore Tex rain gear worth the extra $$

Kind of off topic but I have a friend who does a lot extreme hiking like 100's of miles at time. He claims gore-tex or any of these "breathable waterproof fabrics" do not actually breath when they are wet. My response is that it isn't always raining when your wearing the gear and rubber rain suites ...
