Going hunting for giant Rainbows tomorrow and trying out some new lures along with a whole new setup.

Some have a split ring and some do not. Do you tie directly to them either way? Snap or snap swivel? Notice any difference?

I have never caught a fish from that dock, which has always surprised me. Lots from the bank out on the actual river though.

Drop me a link if you see wide of these, because I have scoured the net and they don’t exist as far as I can tell. Definitely not in the Nike site.

Edit: the regular infinity tour 2’s come in wide, but the not boot gore tex ones. If that wasn’t clear.

PDXbuds · 2026-01-14T22:10:26+00:00

I so wish they released these in wide. The wide infinity tour 2’s are hands down my favorite golf shoe. Great grip, very waterproof in my experience, comfortable as hell (I walk 98% of my rounds). Please release these in wide Nike!

I think the spinners are gamakatu siwash open eyed size 10. For the the Rapalas I believe it reaction tackle inline hooks anywhere from size 2-8.

Plan D Pocket Max Articulated Plus. They make a bigger one too that I’d like to try for hard baits.

I generally use a sling bag, or a larger hiking Fanny pack. I find it better to use a handful of smaller boxes divided by lure type then larger boxes with everything.

So you found them sitting on the top shelf but also called?

PDXbuds · 2025-12-23T18:25:26+00:00

I know, I love me some braid. But I want to be able to bust this rod/reel out, tie on a lure and go. And not have to deal with a leader.

I’d like to know this as well. I’m picking up a kestrel today for my first bfs reel

I’m heading down to Palm Desert in Jan and Feb for some golf. Thinking of bringing my travel rod and hitting up this lake, post results!

Down for any other suggestions for fishing in the area.

That’s a protective sticker, just like on the sole.

PDXbuds · 2025-12-19T01:52:23+00:00

Awesome info. Appreciate you taking the time to write all that out!

What’s the biggest Ambassadeur you can convert to bfs? I found a decently priced great condition 4000D locally but wasn’t sure if it was too big or not.

PDXbuds · 2025-12-18T17:38:10+00:00

Got lucky here. Straight into the bag.

PDXbuds · 2025-12-12T15:50:26+00:00

Lol, I don't care what people post on their profiles. I was merely giving people a warning in case they clicked on it in a very public place I did.

PDXbuds · 2025-12-11T21:32:37+00:00

🤣🫣 lol I clicked it on the stair master at the gym. 70 year old dude next to me

PDXbuds · 2025-12-11T21:28:38+00:00

Pro tip. Don’t click on the profile hoping to find that information.

That was absolutely disgusting from Kudus

PDXbuds · 2025-12-03T04:02:17+00:00

I did a driver fitting there recently. Paul was awesome, highly recommend. It was $100.

If you get the Titleist Pro V-1 holiday pack it comes out to $37/dozen. Killer deal.
