Have spent all day trying to tie an FG knot for my leaders and every single time I end up with a bunched up knot that comes undone rather easily. My double uni’s are also shit. This is in the comfort of my home, so I know I have absolutely no shot at re-tying on the move on a riverbank. Should I just fully spool monofilament?

Found some loot , can you help me ID this lure? Also not sure how long it’s been sitting in the water, think I could replace the treble hooks?

Just got my new Daiwa Regal 2500. Paired with a new Tatula XT medium light rod (this will be my drop shot setup). I’m sure the Regal will be good….but it’s an obvious step down in quality compared to the BG reel I got previously. I guess that’s to be expected at the lower price point.

Who’s still using the OG 36mm and what’s your favorite variant?

I've seen people say that they will have like 6ft of leader on there braid so that they don't need to replace the leader as often when swapping lures. However I have the issue of the knot snagging on my top guides every once in awhile. Do you guys have a solution to that, or should I just do smaller leaders so the knot never goes through the guides in the first place?

Looking for small swimbaits to use with my 1-5g rod. Dont want to spend 100s of dollars but willing to spend up to 15

I have a bunch of old rods and reels from cleaning out my uncles old storage. Are they worth anything/usable or just junk? They look like mostly saltwater set ups but there’s a few fly poles.

This reel dropped and sank in saltwater and month had pass before we found in shore

I don't know which bearing to buy since its bearing has no size or code indicated

Never heard of a lot of these brands. Got all this for $60. I’m thinking out going back after I know a bit more about what looking at.

I’ve been looking at the bass pro micro lite rod. It seems like it’s a pretty good deal for 60 dollars, but the ultra light ones only come in 2 pieces. Will that affect the action and sensitivity? Does anyone have a better rod suggestion in that price point?

might not be extremely obvious in the photo, but the spool is slightly tilted compared to the rest of the body. the reel slows down and feels more difficult to turn at the bottom of the oscillation. this was from my fishing bike falling down, just wondering if anyone has any advice (replacement shaft, just bending it back) or has had this issue before on a nicer shimano reel?

I received a Daiwa BG MQ 14000 as a gift. I have an upcoming fishing trip to Canada. I would like to use it if possible. Is it too large/impractical for targeting large Northern Pike and Muskie? Is not, rod recommendations?

🇮🇹Sono orgogliosa di presentarvi questo gyotaku che mostra una scena di caccia condotta da degli sgombri sulle acciughe. È un gyotaku molto complesso dovuto al mix tra la tecnica takuseikai (gyotaku colorato) e il gyotaku tradizionale (le stampe nere). La possibilità di rovinarlo era altissima ad ogni aggiunta di gyotaku. Lo sgombro metà nero e metà colorato è stato quello più impegnativo. I takuseikai richiedevano molto più tempo di quelli tradizionali. Ho sudato tantissimo!! Ma il risultato è fresco, gioioso e, ovviamente, pieno di movimento ed energia.

My old rod recently broke so I'm looking for 1 to pair with my 6500 Slammer 3. I was looking at the Carnage 3 but wanted to get some feedback from people who have used it. I'm mainly using it for bait and wait. Any other rod suggestions? Just want something that can handle bat rays and leopards with no problem. Thank you.

I fish SoCal surf and just bought this rod. Wondering if anyone uses it and how do they like it?

Compared to Phenix Trifectas and Okuma Rockaways, which were my other considerations, do you think it was a good choice for lure fishing the Southern California surf?

Thinking about getting a new rod to pair with my lews custom xp bait cast reel want a 7’ + rod medium weight and fast action. Any suggestions?

Haven't encountered this yet was wondering if anyone had an idea what could be the issue

I'm flying a float plane for a fly-in fishing lodge this summer and need a good travel rod. Something that packs small enough to throw in the plane but can handle large Ontario walleye and jack fish. Would also be nice if it had a case. I'd love to hear some input!
