Re: Shimano Core MG7

I have no issues with this reel and would buy another one in a heartbeat. They are pretty smooth (not much more so than a 200e7 though), fit comfortably in my hand, and casts quite well. It is also quite easy to set up as I do not think I have had a single birds nest. Adam You are a Birds Nest Mach...

Re: Sunglasses for fishing advice for the rest of us? -/+ $5

After going through 3 pairs of $200+ sunglasses, I went back to buying cheap ones. It seems go through sunglasses like soft soft plastics either dropping them in the water, stepping on them, leaving them places and even managed to get a pair stuck in my head in a freak accident. Currently i have 3 p...

Re: Towng aluminum boat

I don't see you having an issue. I've pulled around an aluminum boat with a camry (4-cylinder) and i have seen numerous people with a sunfire and/or cavalier even civics pulling a boats around.

Now that being said, I am not a mechanical or a car expert at all

Re: Quiet Muskie Opener?

My brother and I fished the rideau and didn't get much, saw two in the morning, one missed the lure about 10 feet from the boat made, the other was off after about 2 solid head shakes. Both came in about 6 FOW. We did manage to land a few decent pike and a few OOS bass. Every year I'm amazed on how ...

I think i'll end up picking one up, they are great price, i would love to invest in a color with GPS but ...

I figure if...
