    Abu Garcia Veritas/Vendetta

    I mostly spin with jerkbaits/floaters, spinners/spinnerbaits, and occasionally spoons, I wanted a stiffer rod but all the stiffer veritas and vendetta seem to be 6'6 and shorter, which I feel is a bit short. anyway 7', medium action, 1/4-3/4 oz, 2 piece is what i was looking at ,as a general...

    okuma aventa vs raven matrix vs rapala r type

    I got an R type but i'll be returning it because its broken already , I knew the drag or w/e you call it on this reel felt wierd in the store and now it just plain doesn't work, if I exchange it I'll go for a drifter, even though its hard to trust rapala now.. at least I get a 1 year warranty...

    okuma aventa vs raven matrix vs rapala r type

    i grabbed an r type from le baron, still have 10 days to exchange for a drifter or aventa, considering trading up to a drifter but I dont know if its worth it tbh, they're both machined, 2 apec bearings, aluminum, to me they basically look the same

    Abu Garcia Veritas/Vendetta

    saw these at le barons today.. very nice rods; read some reviews on the Veritas before and was pretty well reviewed.. anybody have any experience with these? Thinking of upgrading my spinning rod to something thats not a 50$ bass pro combo for the upcoming season, I've been spinning my whole...

    okuma aventa vs raven matrix vs rapala r type

    narrowed it down to these 3, leaning towards the matrix, i know they're cheap but I just need a starter reel edit: rapala classic drifter is also an option

    Nets and the Well Tempered Custodian...

    I'm in the same boat, I feel like I have to put a lot more pressure and handle the fish a lot more with my hands when landing without a net, and for salmon/trout i'm more comfortable using them, also a net is safer in a lot of cases for the angler, lots of opportunities to fall in...

    good resources to read about rainbow trout/steelhead

    the net is good, but it has its downsides, for instance most of the articles available online are aimed at pacific northwest steelheaders, and even the resources i've found that talk about the North East specifically have been mostly geared to the US, even though they are great lake tribs...

    So I broke my float rod, first time using it

    would be awesome if i could just buy the top section, i like that option more than a repair tbh, thanks for the great info update: used it yesterday and it seemed to work well, still gonna try to grab a top section or get it fixed when I have some time, going out again tomorrow

    So I broke my float rod, first time using it

    thanks, i'll definitely get it fixed if its only 20 bucks! Used it today and it worked pretty well, I want my 6 inches back though and fishing89.. I almost wish i had a 9'6 rod for fishing those creeks I fish...should work well unless you''re fishing really big/wide waters

    When I arrived it was pretty hectic, a lot of guys in ball caps i was too focused on looking at all the reels, rods and deals they had to notice anybody I think, they really had some good deals

    New to fishing - quick question

    if a conservation officer catches you targeting pike or bass you'll be fined

    So I broke my float rod, first time using it

    i know people had guides repaired but I didn't realize they could do that il take it to le barons or jbs fishing depot and see what they say, unless anyone has anywhere they'd recommend i saw a streamside tranquility 13' for 89.99 today, so if it costs close to that to repair it I may just...
