I was down in the Fla. Keys a couple weeks ago and went to with a guide to do some saltwater fishing. We had a great time cathing many species of fish between 12" - 28". These are the most aggressive fish I have ever caught and they fight like crazy.
Quality rods and reels are a must. We were using graphite g-loomis rods and some really nice shimano spinning reels. (sorry, dont know the model). I know the rods were over $200 though. The action and feel of the rods were great, and the reels had a great drag system...which was a must.
But for walleyes and smallies in minnesota, I've been using an 6 and 6 1/2 foot ugly stick with a shimano lx1000 and lx2000 spinning reels for awhile now. I have great feel when using 6 lb test and I the drag system works great.
I know I'm using "economy" equipment. A lot of people spend the money to get the quality equipment, g-loomis etc...
I would like to hear how much difference it makes for you guys that do use the better stuff? Is there not much difference? Or is it a big advantage. Like ice fishing without a vexilar, compared to ice fishing with a vexilar. :-)
i always though Taylor was a slim ball!!!!! watching the gopher hockey team last night there were blurbs running across the bottom about the T-wolves sale is off!!!! and A-rods group saying the finances from there end was in order.
this kinda reminds me of Norm Greed, er Green!!!!!!!!
I really don't care about that.
Sad to say the best chance of a championship at the moment in this state is the Twolves.
Used to be such the fan, but the NBA lost me with the pick and roll.
But I'll watch come playoff time.
If KAT can't play worth a darn , the playoff run won't last long.
I thought I couldn’t dislike Glenn Taylor any more than I already did until today:
Glen Taylor with @ChadHartmanShow when asked if the reason for this happening is because the franchise might be worth double what he was selling it for:
"Partly so, yes. I have a responsibility to those who have been on this ride for the last 40 years."
Sellers remorse for sure but too bad for him the deal was inked 3 years ago. Hopefully the league has a way to arbitrate so it doesn’t go to court, but we will see.
