Still looking for good stuff for the Pastebin and Imgur. Maybe we can get a list of Youtube vids and put them in the Pastebin or keep a couple important ones in the OP.

Every one I ever owned was a piece of shit compared to any Shimano i've bought.

Every shimano reel i've bought is still being used today, while the Abu's are long gone and in the trash.

What's up y'all? I've been out for months because it's pissing rain for weeks on end in cali. Just got back from a trip to Hawaii. Got some fishing in, caught myself a nice 1-2lb Papio (bluefin trevally) from the shore and god damn was that insane. It hit like a god damn truck and took a ton of drag, I thought it would be a huge fish from the fight. West coast truly is the shit coast because now I feel like I know what I'm missiing with amberjacks etc

Curado and citica have no where near as smooth of a reeling action in the crank to my feel. Idk if it's that they have less bearings or what.

I have both and like both but to call the revo line trash is pretty funny.

Diwali the tatula type r is good too. Can't wait to see how you trash that as well.

Let me guess? You wasted money on a stella and have to justify it daily?

That 20lbs of drag is VERY useful to have maxed out on fish in heavy cover and grass or pads when you use 60lb braid.

You're a retard obviously. I have never had a bass break like peeling drag nor do I think their drag isn't smooth? I don't understand lol.

Their inshore reels have never had fish break off for me on shifty or sticky drag. Only on cover.

I personally do not own a Curado, and haven't in many years.

I went on to better things, Chronarch and upwards.

I haven't bought a Stella...yet. I'm In the Market for one and I am debating wither or not I should go with a Stella + a 7'6-7'9 Mebaru or a Twin Power XD and a heavier action rod.

I'll admit though, Diawa's aren't all that bad, as long as you buy over a certain price point.

Have you ever fished a Stella?

If not, then how could you ever know what they feel like?

In fishing gear, and technology in general, there are levels.

Stella's are without a doubt the best spinning reel ever made, and that is not "fanboy" speaking.

I've fished Everything from Pfleuger, Penn, Abu and Diawa. Shimano hands down makes the best stuff, and you will never have to worry about parts ever drying up.

When you buy High end shimano, You buy for a lifetime and an heirloom.

You should always treat your rods and reels how you'd read your firearms.

You have cheap shit you have no problem throwing around. Perhaps you buy cheap Stevens shotguns as well.

I have enough respect and appreciation for my gear, that I will not throw it on a boat or set it on the ground.

Lol. What? A firearm? What kind of fag hunting do you do that your gun doesn't get beat aroud? I buy vortex optics for a reason. Because I actually use my gun and hike with it and shits gonna hit and bump it and the scope around and vortex will replace broken shit.

You're a fag. I bet you sit in a tree a stand or truck and road hunt because you're 350 pounds.

gear nigger? Fishing and hunting equipment are tools you dumb fuck. If you honestly think that the Stella isn't going to get bumped around you're a retard.

Do your guns sit in the safe being wiped daily with oil and never fired because the slide or bolt will get wear marks? Good lord you're a homo.

>clearly bought a used OLD Stella, probably from Japan from the infamous Broke reel sellers on Ebay

here is something neat to know.

1. Shimano sells referb and/or for repair reels to some individuals in Japan.

2. These Japanese businesses (ebay) straight up sells you the broken reel, or the attempted fix

3. You cannot send it back with tracking, so in the event you obtain a broken reel, buyer will ask for you to send it back

4. Reel loses tracking after it leaves a US facility

5. Buyer claims you did not return item

6. No tracking proving delivery

7. Ebay sides with Seller, you are out a reel and your cash

This has been going on for a while now, and Ebay being the kikes they are allow this to happen.

These dumbasses should have bought new.

So you're complaining about my argument points and yours is that I'm mad I don't like "superior" products? Lol what? I admitted to owning shimano product and liking it. I like my curado.

I have Daiwa stuff too. I'm still not going to buy a Stella or saltiga because I'm not a retard and I know I'm going to actually use it and not just talk about it on the Internet and post pictures of it to try and make people jealous online. It's a waste of money. A good rod is more important than a reel. Any reel over 500 bucks is ridiculous for most fishing unless you're getting monster conventional reels or vertical jigging on wrecks and need stupid drag power

The only reel that could possibly handle catching a bowfin is a Shimano stella. Even it would likely fail under the immense pressure given by a bowfin, the God of all fish.

I'm not recommending it but I'm saying they are actually hard to break just bending or pull them dude lol. YouTube it if you don't believe me. Glass mix rods are harder to break than graphite or other types of rod blank mixes.

I don't even know why you're worried about breaking it. You would never spool line strong enough to possibly snap a rod high sticking on a fish. You're not vertical jigging 60 pound amberjacks on an ultralight.

Depends what you are trying to do. Sometimes it's fun to let bass run a little bit and tire them our before you get em close to shore and they throw the hook. Other times you want to crank them in fast before they can dive into the lilly pad bed nearby.

>>961101
Ehh, you can catch common bowfin on anything. But if you are targeting the mythical "Southern Asian Striped Bowfin", nothing less than a Japanese made Shimano is up to the task.

My uncle's father in law's second cousin claimes he landed one on a Swedish made Ambassadeur but I think it's just another tall fishing tale.

I'm gonna assume you're Australian so your dad will be fishing for black or yellowfin bream.

Bream rods are rated between 1-4 kg and range from 6 to 7 foot in length. I can't really tell you more without knowing how your dad plans to use it.

Usually I hold the line and pull on it, and set the drag to release when the rod is bent to what I consider a "reasonable amount". If you want to pull fish away from rocks or weeds quickly, just crank the drag up all the way and hope you don't get a monster.

The floating minnow in the top left of your picture is a great lure. It isn't the most realistic compared to what's out now, but it has god-tier action. If you do a steady retrieve, you can slow your reeling down to a creeping slow pace and the lure will keep its swimming action. Got a nice trout on this when they were ignoring everything else. I also use a small gold one with trout spots (same size as the two little ones you have) and it gets me a lot of spotted bass and trout in the river.

Need it because motorcycle. Tried to strap my 6.5ft pole but would get a ticket/unable to steer no matter how i did it.

Figure I'll just make a PVC rig to slip it in or take in a backpack, but have no idea what a quality rod would be.

Lake/river/pier fishing, for deep sea I would go with buddies who have deep sea rods.

It's shitty and not even worth it. They give you like 20% or some other low number of the value towards a new rod so if you bring in a used rod that was $100 new, they will give you $20 off the new rod you buy. Not sure if they take abused and broken shit but that's the only way I would do it.

Not sure, but fingerlakes (esp Seneca, Cayuga, Keuka) in upstate NY is as far as I know. Probably southernmost is in Nevada/Utah/Colorado area. Lakers need 50-60 degree water year-round or at least access to it.

haven't tried the shitshamo but i'm sending my kastking stealth back in hopes of a replacement. i think it's got a bad spool bearing or something, it's just not as smooth as it should be. the drag and overall performance is not bad, a step above the silver max for sure. their customer service is actually pretty good. still no speed demon in stock.

i just want to see kastking prove itself to be able to compete in the sub-$75 reel market.

anyway what scale is the go to for fish weighing? i don't need something that goes to 25 or 50 lbs, something in the 15 lb range would be great. preferrably cheap and on amazon/ebay.

The Vortex is the one on sale for $15, right? Did you get a spinning one or casting one and what reel did you get?

I'm still like 80% convinced those Vortex rods are the Abu 24 ton blanks they use for the Cardinal SX rods.

Not him but this is what i'm seeing on their website:

http://www.gandermountain.com/modperl/product/details.cgi?pdesc=Gander-Mountain-Vortex-Casting-Rod-66-Medium-Heavy&i=715771

I'd assume they have more than just 6'6" MH in stores. Sounds like a good buy for $20.

So wut did you pay for that? And I love how thick that crank handle is with the dank carbon fiber look.

The Silver Max reels still cast decent and stuff but you can't compare em to the more expensive stuff with better materials. I just love the small and light body of the Revos because they feel so balanced and nice to palm.

>>961704
Memecasters are still good for that 10% of time you want to cast a 1/2oz crankbait.

They have had em at the Gander Mtn by me for $19.99 and they have/had 5'6" UL, 6'6" M, and 6'6" MH. They are probably still there and I really wanted to buy one or two but I don't need another 6'6" M.

The sign always says "$60 Value!" and idk if they are worth that much but it's probably a $40 rod. Def worth the $19. The M is just like the Abu Cardinal SX combo rods or whatever other "24 Ton" rods. The action isn't super fast but they are pretty sensitive and light enough.

My 100 pack of #7 swivels came in from amazon today as well. No more buying overpriced 12 packs.

I think I might be addicted to amazon prime and may never be able to go back to slow 'free' shipping.

Just keep doing it until it doesn't spook you or go out with a friend. Start car camping. If you just want to fish stick to public places.

I grew up in the woods, and I'll still get spooped out sometimes if I hear something in the dark every once in awhile. You could also consider carrying a gun, but pls don't shoot at someone because you thought they were following you.

Yeah man I think you just need to stop reading the spoo/k/ threads and get out and do stuff. You're way more likely to die driving to wherever you're going than from a wendigo in the middle of nowhere.

Honestly just grab a friend and go out one day. Go to a small state park and don't venture too far from camp at first. If you have to just stay for the day and leave before it gets dark. Or you could just jump right into it and for a 3 day hike or something. You'll get more comfortable the more time you spend out. Life's too short to not enjoy the outdoors.

Also, it wouldn't hurt to talk to a doctor, but I get why you wouldn't want to.

Going fishing in about an hour, taking a mates boat out instead of mine because the outboard needs servicing. He has a 15hp Yamaha, how else can we slow the boat down enough to troll lures besides going upstream with a bucket hanging off the side? Even in idle it goes way too fast for luring.

Treble hooks are fun with carp sometimes because their mouths are so small. Every once in a while when I would go for them back in the day, I would set the hook when they have the whole thing in their mouths and two prongs would come out the top lip and one in the bottom and they were almost impossible to get out. You just had to try and grab the shank with pliers and force it back in. They are trash fish in the US tho so might as well throw them back with the hook holding their mouth closed and they will just starve.

For some reason they are considered good sport in over here.
I regularly see guys in full fatigues, sat in a bivvy (basically a shit tent), with three matching rods, with three matching reels, sat on a stainless steel "rod pod" with three matching "bite indicators" that have radio emitters (so you can get the bite alarm relayed to a walkie talkie when you're sat on your shit tent). Plus a forth "spod rod" and maybe a fith "marker rod".
And worst of all for some inexplicable reason they all seem to have branded fishing "distance sticks" (which as far as I'm aware are no different to any other kind of stick) which you put in the ground at a known distance so when you loop your line around them you can measure out an exact distance then clip the line up to ensure you always hit the same spot.
It all sounds very boring to me,

They are still confined to a smaller area in SE Florida but yeah they are bad for the waterways. I have said it before on here, if you see how they hit baits compared to native predators, it's easy to understand how they can fuck up ecosystems. Most other large predators in the US are much more oportunistic feeders so smaller fish have a chance if they are smart. Snakeheads ambush smaller fish in the same places they would normally hide from bass and will chase the prey a lot more.

Most of the Dick's have a real similar mediocre selection. Bass Pro #1 and #2 have some slightly different stuff and I think Gander Mtn might actually be a little better for bass tackle.

I have a PiranhaMax 197c sonar and Navionics on a cellphone. I'm trolling crankbaits and spoons, but I also have a ton of salted minnows left from ice season. What should I do with them?

Not really sure, maybe try tipping the spoons trebles with a minnow or two but only if it doesn't fuck up the action. Other then that idrk besides using them for pan fish or just tossing them out

Further cast distance, less shit that can break and when a shark does a blistering run sometimes the levelwind can't keep up causing the line to rub and snap.

You need a EWG hook. Best bet is the ones with the screw locks like the other anon said. I like the weighted EWGs because they make the bait land the right way up and don't twist as much keeping the hook facing up and reducing snags

Wish my phone had that feature. Amazing how I've lived here for 24 years and never fished this spot 20 minutes away, limestone cliffs go on for about 30 kilometers straight and the water is 17+ metres deep, perfect place to troll large lures and this place is beautiful to look at to look at. Probably the deepest stretch of water in the entire Murray River too.

No but I probably could late next week when I stock up on this seasons supply of line. I'll tie several of each not and attach it to my scale to see which holds the most or if both just snap before the knot.

You should do it at home too. I found that there's a massive different from knot to knot for the same exact knot using the same exact line. You can't just tie 1 and test it. You have to tie a couple dozen and test it. That gives you a proper range.

My main problem is never the knot, its the line. The knots I tie don't pull out and rarely ever break. It is the line that fails above the knots. Knots that pull out, I don't use simply because they pull out.

You also shouldn't, for the most part, fanboy one knot about another since most knots are meant for a specific function used in a specific way. Knowing which know is best used with the type of tackle and hook is key. Some knots are not good for thick 4x or 6x strength hooks, but work great for the normal thin wire hooks.
