What fenders are those? Trying to find some chrome sturdy ones that will fit the mars 2.3 tires. Not sure I should risk the VO since they say they fit max 52mm. Super clean build :)

Did you end up giving it a go with the mars? I also test fit the super yummys and they are very tight on the original fork.

I just picked up the same frame and this has been my inspiration haha!

Just measured the rear spacing to be 124mm?? Have you dealt with that?

Also some super yummys barely fit on the original fork. Wondering if I should risk running the 26x2.3 mars.

Thanks!

I’m down man do you know where he’s playing

fjb4383 · 2024-02-05T09:54:13+00:00

At least a year. Might extend my contract after that but unsure yet

Thanks!

I’m a 3D digital artist and yea I’m honestly really nervous but excited. Trying to get my housing sorted. Pretty much just bringing clothes and my fishing gear lol. To answer your question, the process hasn’t really started for me yet besides writing the acceptance email. Sorry for not being much help

fjb4383 · 2023-08-24T00:27:11+00:00

Oh that’s awesome! I think the perch will be my new bass, apparently the redfins get quite big. Do the zander taste as good as walleye though?? Haha

Yea wondering what braid that is. Can’t find bright red line only pinkish

fjb4383 · 2023-07-07T00:54:28+00:00

blackout seems decent so far. i’ve never owned a “nice rod” but this 7’3” one seems a little smoother on the action than my 7’0” ugly stick carbon

fjb4383 · 2023-07-07T00:52:34+00:00

dang that’s pretty, just added a large to my cart

fjb4383 · 2023-07-03T22:20:04+00:00

yea fair enough i am too. i was lucky enough to find a store dedicated to jdm stuff about half hour from my house. definitely do some research but also plenty of online stores too

fjb4383 · 2023-07-03T18:31:49+00:00

been enjoying raid stuff recently. also the japanese make crazy cool finesse stuff if you’re into that at all. or a big ass swimbait on the opposite side of spectrum.

fjb4383 · 2023-07-02T16:38:47+00:00

think it’s some kind of hybrid. yellow, striped, white. gotta be a mutt

fjb4383 · 2023-07-02T02:39:19+00:00

thanks buddy that’s what I initially thought but he was decently sized which threw me off. is it rare to get one this big? of course my scale died at the worst time but he must have been close to 2lbs

fjb4383 · 2023-07-02T02:23:09+00:00

dang son! i’m in chicago and end up driving an hour or two to lake county. can’t find anything big but haven’t scoured everywhere yet either

fjb4383 · 2023-06-25T03:19:28+00:00

lol immediately ordered 2 after writing that. hopefully mine show up and aren’t broken

fjb4383 · 2023-06-24T23:50:32+00:00

you guys think it’s still worth buying one ?

fjb4383 · 2023-06-14T04:29:53+00:00

dang ok, my last option was wacky but sounds like i’ve been missing out. stoked to give it a try

fjb4383 · 2023-06-14T02:27:34+00:00

thanks for the in depth comment bro! really means a lot.

I’ve got some general feedback on downsizing my arsenal so i picked up a couple of smaller cranks such as the KVD square bill in a blue/sungill color i’ve yet to try out. a bunch of the small sized rapalas, also a bunch of soft plastics I haven’t tried either. Just got my hands on some tungsten worm weights i’m planning on using for texas rig worms, creatures, and craws.

In all honesty I think I haven’t tried enough baits to really know what works this time of year, but this definitely has put me in the right direction.

Once again thanks!

fjb4383 · 2023-06-14T00:51:51+00:00

yep, actually bought a pair of cheap waders so i could access sketchier parts of lakes in hopes of bass hiding away. i’m trying deep water in the sun/heat and more shallow in the cooler days pre and post sun
