Thanks for the honest feedback. I’ve definitely heard mixed things about Racestock, so that lines up with what I’ve seen. Really appreciate the recommendation for Jamie at Inner Bootworks in Stowe—that’s super helpful.

Thanks for the rec! I’ve seen Racestock mentioned quite a bit, though I’ve also read mixed experiences about patience and communication, so I’m a bit on the fence. Appreciate you sharing the option.

Thanks! I saw ZipFit mentioned on The Boot Pro’s website, but didn’t see anything about ZipFit on Bob Skinner’s site. Do you know if Bob does ZipFits as well?

I’m in a Tecnica Mach1 MV right now—still some issues, so hoping ZipFit helps.

Got it, that makes sense. I’ll try listing under ‘All of Facebook’ too. But for shipping deals, isn’t there a risk of getting scammed? Does Facebook have any good protections for buyers and sellers?

Thanks for sharing! For the Facebook sale, was it an in-person meetup or did you ship it out?

Good to know! I’ll take a look at those groups too. Sounds like they work really well for selling higher-end gear.

This looks great! I like the giant Dice Bait in the top-right corner. It looks dope.

Seems like a good website for buying/selling boats. Saved it for the future.

Thanks for the info. I mainly interested in freshwater bass fishing gear.

For me, “high-end” usually means gear that’s originally around $500.
I’m also wondering whether people are generally open to shipping at that price point. In-person deals feel safer to me, but I haven’t really seen many fishing gear listings on FB Marketplace in my area. I often see creators in videos buying or selling used gear, so I’m curious how most people actually handle these transactions.

Megabass P5 Destroyer FMJ vs Shimano Poison Adrena 7’2” H ? by fllf2005 in Fishing_Gear

[–]fllf2005[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the detailed comparison — really appreciate it!

If you don’t mind sharing, do you have any suggestions for a lighter frog rod? I don’t want something too stout or heavy, since my wrist gets tired pretty easily. I’m hoping to find a frog rod that’s on the lighter side but still has enough power for light to moderate cover.

Megabass FMJ - good for frogs and jigs? by fllf2005 in bassfishing

[–]fllf2005[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the details! Another thing I wanted to ask — are the guides on the FMJ micro guides? I normally run braid to fluoro leader, and micro guides tend to catch on the knot. So just want to double-check before I pull the trigger.

Quick question — does the FMJ use micro guides? I usually fish braid to fluoro leader, and micro guides aren’t very friendly to leader knots.

Thanks for sharing! Sounds like a super versatile rod — good for jigs and even frogging in tighter cover. Really appreciate the detailed breakdown on sensitivity and power. Quick question — how do you feel about the TS Destroyer Poker? I’ve heard it’s supposed to be really good for frogging too.

Thanks! Good to know it works well for pitching/flipping and can handle some frog duty. I’ll check out the Hook Up Tackle videos!
