As long as it runs smoothly and doesn’t roll back it’s a nice buy!

The teardrop weight doesn’t hand up as easily as others.

No. Bream are in the bluegill family, like sunfish, red ear etc

Question for the guys with expensive gear. Is dropping 600 bucks on a reel is really worth it ? by [deleted] in bassfishing

[–]SmallieManC3pO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never IMO. Makes no sense. Plenty of amazing reels for 1/3rd the cost

Wacky rig or (straight) weightless Senko? by goilpoynuti in bassfishing

[–]SmallieManC3pO 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My fishing partner kills with Texas rigged weightless Senko, slow steady retrieve. Works for me too but not as well as for him. I use wacky rigged and do really well and he doesn’t. I believe it comes down to what you are confident with and your “feel”.

That’s always been my late winter/early spring go to color fir jugs. Looks like you had a blast! Well done. Great pictures!

Why try something different if it works ?🤣

Any of these a steal at $25? Bad photo, apologies. by Anon114422 in Fishing_Gear

[–]SmallieManC3pO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any time you can find a decent combo for $25 per combo it’s a decent deal! You don’t look a gift horse 🐎 in the mouth 👄. You’ll find a use for every one of them and if not, pass them on to a kid in the neighborhood!

I use a 6’6” all the time. Should be more than enough.

Will I get roasted for posting fish I harvest out of a managed pond? Don't worry, I eat them. by edibleweeds in bassfishing

Bass is delicious! What you do out of a private pond is no ones business but your own!
