I can comment on the lake. I have fished it off and on for about 20 years and guide on the lake when someone wants to try a different lake. It was a smallmouth - largemouth lake until recently when spotted bass have found their way into the lake, as they always seem to do. A 7 lb 3 oz smallmouth wa...

yeah they went around like Almasey's spiral light rods? I remember they had a senko rod correct? my buddy had one always thought it was pretty cool.

Decided to repair rod

I'm using pretty much the same setup as you--Powell Frog Rod with a Phat Frog (hooks bent slightly outward). No problem walking it, it's just on the cast where it comes back and hooks the line. 20lb leader solves that problem, but not crazy about 20lb leader tied to 65lb braid. As a side note: I em...

I've used a lot of different frog rods and honestly the best results I have ever had have been with the powell 736. hands down the best frog rod I have ever used. pair it with a high speed reel and 50lb strait p-line braid to a river to sea bully wa or snag proof phat frog, you are good to go, all t...

I know we are in a day and age where everything is almost always replicated, however upon viewing the bassmaster site icast 2017 product i came accross this jig that looks strangely close to a local favorite made by none other than Cooch. So i had to share https://www.bassmaster.com/gear/slideshow/1...

Decided to check it out today. They have paved most of the road going in the back way now. Pulled up and holy crap this was the fullest I've seen it. Lake is up to the top of the ramp. Theake was a zoo. Never seen it soooo busy. Years past there would be a few people on a Sunday but nothing like th...

From Bobby Barrack "They will starve to death in Bethany. It's all part of the plan." Ive caught some big largemouths in Bethany, its a very small lake however it is fun to fish. I Do not agree with them dropping off delta fish in that lake, why wouldnt they just dump them in another lake...

The 766 Flip is my personal Flipping rod choice. It has enough tip for pitching smaller baits but has plenty of power for any type of punching. It's a great flippin stick. I would not use for frog rod or jig rod. We have far better choices for these techniques. The 766 is a great flippin stick but ...

POWELL 3d 736 and inferno 725(rod is a beast and stiffer than the 736 IMO) on a lews super duty 8:1
BOOM!

bustout wrote:Does anyone know which company makes them. Are they good reels?

Look at the Construction of the reel and see what brand they look similar to. I think thats how you will find your answer, the newest pro qualifier looks exactly like a lews reel.

DDG

just buy some chatters in brown,pumpkin, or black and put a red trailer on it that works or buy the bait dye in blood red, also the blade runner wobble head jig works i paint the head black in that color and sometimes rip the weed guard out but that bait works. theres many options out there.

Jason Cordiale at it again!

i guess i'll just stick to the bubba shot

Lews Super Duty is a great option for swimbaits and such. It's heavy (8oz) though. Left hands are limited to 7.1 gear ration only. I use Super duties for everything it works great for 1/4 oz baits. yes i do use tournament MB for squarebills and other lighter line applications, however the Super Dut...

Lews super duty i think is hands down the best reel for price and quality, they weigh about 7oz bout as much as older curados but built to last SERIOUSLY
