Fishing Rods With Aftco Roller Guides ?

admin — Mon, 22 Feb 2010 18:31:25 +0000

Hi,
I recently bought a Okuma convector CV-45D rounded bait-casting reel and I haven’t bought a rod for it yet. I’m thinking of getting a heavy rod that can hold 20-60lbs mono or braided lines.
My questions is: Those rods with AFTCO roller guides, I know that they are good for your braided lines for these type of test lines can break your line guides through frictions. Will someone please help me explain what’s the advantage or dis-advantage of having a fishing rod with AFTCO roller guides and what type of fishing I can do with those rods? I want something I can use for short distance casting and trolling and can hold 2lbs sinker too for Pier STILL fishing.
Thanks

Whats Kind Of Line Should I Go With For River Smallmouth?

admin — Sat, 20 Feb 2010 06:26:10 +0000

Right now I am using 8lb fluorocarbon, and I am having success, but I really don’t like the feel of it as far as casting and sensitivity. It feels like it stretches out and gets weaker when I’m yanking out a snag, etc. I like the fact that the fish can’t see it though.. I’m thinking about switching to a thin braid or maybe one of those superlines??? What about that fireline crystal stuff, it always catches my eye at the store, but I haven’t tried it.

What Rod Will Best Go With Shimano Stella 20000 Fa And Stella Sw20000pg?

admin — Sat, 20 Feb 2010 00:33:16 +0000

I would be using a .55 to.60 mm monofilament as well as braided line of same diameter for casting in big and wide rivers from the river banks. I would like a long cast multipurpose rod of not more than 8′2″ in length(the shorter the beter). Something that can cast all shorts of lures and baits and to be used for varous fishing techniques.

Fishing With A Popping Cork, Inshore Saltwater?

admin — Mon, 15 Feb 2010 06:26:50 +0000

I do a lot of fishing for speckled trout/red drum in the florida panhandle and have heard that a popping cork will work good with live shrimp or gulp. Here’s my dilemma, I cant keep the dang thing on my line. Ive lost 5 of them last time i went out. I even had an old salt show me how but it slips off the line every time. I get them out there pop’em a few times, get a hug bite and the cork pops right off. The ones Ive been using and getting bites on are the 3-4 inch ones with a cup on the top, beads inside, with the pin running through the middle. I pull the pin run the line through the center put the pin back in and wrap the line a few times on the top and bottom. Im using a med-heavy action rod and reel combo with 20lb spiderwire braid, 24-36 inch 20lb fluorocarbon leader connected to the main line by a barrel swivel and a 1/0 – 2/0 hook. Its also awkward to cast with the poping cork sitting above the leader. Is there a better way to rig the popping cork so that it is easier to cast? Is there a better way to keep the cork on the line? Im getting huge bites and reeling in big fish but am losing my cork every time. When I run out of corks I have to wade waist deep and toss the mirrolure but id rather just toss the popping cork out from the beach (bayside) pop open a cold one and pop the cork a while.

What Is The Biggest Fish You Have Caught With 6lb Test Line?

admin — Sat, 13 Feb 2010 18:43:08 +0000

It doesn’t matter if you used mono, fluorocarbon or braid line as long as it is a 6lb test line. It could be a freshwater or a saltwater fish. It doesn’t matter if you used a leader or not. However, please do not include catches that utilized a shock leader.

Mono Fishing Line: I Need A True Mono Line With A Diameter Of Less Than .012 That Is Very Strong.. Help?

admin — Sat, 06 Feb 2010 18:34:45 +0000

I have tried several and do not care much for co polymer lines, or braid, or flourcarbon, I just need some thin, strong mono line, all the ones I have tried with a diameter less than .012 are weak, I pay attention only to diamater and not the lb rating as this seems to work best. Most lines lb ratings seem either too high or low. Ande’s mono is very good but too thick for me in the lower lb class. Some have been very weak have found nothing from pure fishing & shakespeare comes close with cajun line, but not good enough.

Wouldnt It Be Better To Use A Mono Leader With Braided Line Because Its Harder For The Fish To See?

admin — Sat, 06 Feb 2010 00:32:22 +0000

I am bass fishing and starting to throw frogs. I have never used braid before. Wouldnt braid be too dark or thick? Wouldnt the fish see it better than a mono leader?

Filling A Micro Fishing Reel With 50lb Spiderwire?

admin — Thu, 04 Feb 2010 06:30:54 +0000

Heyy so I have this shakespeare micro-spinning rod and reel. I was wondering if it would still work fine if I filled it with 50 lb spiderwire. The spiderwire is a braided line that is equal to the width of 12 lb mono line.

What’s The Best Line To Fish Bass Jigs With, Mono Or Braid ?

admin — Tue, 02 Feb 2010 12:28:46 +0000

Mono & braid are both good for fishing a jig. I don’t use braid because it has the visibility of a light bulb in a dark room. I would stick with an abrasion resistant mono. I would use 10-12 lb. for light cover jig fishing, and 14-20 lb. for the heavy cover (where the big boys stay).
May i also say, i have had great luck with a “Bass Pro Shops Pro Enticer Football Jig” with a “Berkley 3″ or 4″ Chigger Craw” trailer. My all time favorite jig color is PB & J (Peanut Butter & Jelly.). For the jig, i like both the 1/2 & 1/4 oz. sizes. For the 1/2 oz. PB & J jig, i use a 4″ Berkley Chigger Craw in pumpkin green. For the 1/4 oz. PB & J jig, i use a 3″ Berkley Chigger Craw in pumpkin green.
Happy fishing.
