    OK, I have HAD IT.... LINE TWIST!

    I use the same BPS line on my spinning reels without issue. All my problems with wind knots stopped when I started spooling my line on in the same direction that the reel is spinning. If your reel is turning to the right, you need to be sure your line is coming off the spool to the right. Done...

    Shakespeare EZ Cast

    I'm with baitcaster on this one. Theres not a reel out there that won't give a birdsnest. If you want to get him a reel that he can grow with, and benefit from I would go with something that has centrifugal breaks on it. I know price can be an issue, but there are some good options if you can...

    Senkos

    Just a thought for everyone. One day I ran out of shaky head worms. I know they dont float, but it worked. I was just hoping it back like a jig. I have also seen them wacky rigged with shaky head jigs for a faster fall rate when fishing deeper water. The ways off using these baits are limitless...

    One heck of a deal if you like Skeet.

    They seemed very popular before the Abu rods started coming out. Then I stopped hearing people talk about them.

    They have a ton of names. Stick baits, Senkos, Yum Dingers. I get the 40 pack from Gander MT for $10.00. 4 to 5 o/t hook Texas riged no weight. Give them to my kids, tell them cast it out count to 30, and reel it in very very slowly. My 7yo caught 5 this weekend doing just that. There is no...

    Rehabbing Old Baitcasting Reels

    I'm far from an expert on the subject, but I do clean my reels often. I do alot of bank fishing and they get dirty. There's oil and grease. The oil is for the bearings or bushings. The grease is for the worm shaft, and gears. I tear the real down, and clean it. I lube it while putting it back...

    Baitcaster reel for beginners

    I love my BPS Extreame reels, but they can't hold a candle to my STX dual breaking system. So my vote would be for a reel in your price range that has a dual breaking system. The BPS Pro Qualifier......

    How much do rod recommendations actually mean?

    My first 2 seasons of bass fishing was all done from the bank. Lots of walking, so I try to keep things as light as possible. My suggestion is to hold the rods, and get a good fell for them. I have a 7'0, M, F Abu Garcia Vendetta that's my all around rod. I throw everything I have with it, and...
