a Garmin trolling motor would be pretty sweet with all the other stuff they have coming out!

A microcomputer in a fishing reel? Sounds interesting but I hope it's durable and waterproof, and that the brakes still work mechanically when the computer does fail. If it's all they are making it out to be that could be pretty sweet though especially for skipping and stuff. 

 

Edit: Guess I've been living under a rock, the technology itself isn't new but I guess for that price range of shimano's reels it is. 


fishing user avatarburrows reply : 

I wonder what diawa is bringing to the table?

If it helps me skip, I’m in, because I can only do it with a spinning rod....I know, it’s user error

Berkley is coming out with 16 new topwater hard baits it looks like.  One looks like a whopper plopper knock off:

I am interested in these Berkley top water lures.  We do not have a bait store in the Owosso/chesaning area. I have to go to cabelas out post in Saginaw (which sucks) or Hicks in Clio ( mainly walleye gear). I bet Walmart would carry some of these Berkley top water stuff.

Isn't Frank's over your way? Have you ever tried Jay's in Clare?

Franks and north woods is about an hour away.  I have never been to franks.   I think jays in Clare is way better than bass pro or cabelas. I try to stop by when I am heading up north alone.

 

Hicks is actually a a very good store that is priced reasonable .  Hicks is where I bought my Accurist baitcaster from . they have a decent selection of bass stuff but, it is  mainly walleye a walleye store. 

 

My issue is I work 13 days in a row untill a day off with a lot of 10 to 12 hrs days.  Also a new 9 month baby at home. It’s either shop for tackle or fish.  I do buy stuff online but, some stuff I like to see in person first and I like being in fishing stores.

You tried the Arashi wake crank? Love that bait. Caught my PB on it this past February. 

 


fishing user avatarSam reply : 

Wouldn't it be interesting to have a 10-foot cane fishing pole introduced at ICAST?

 

Like the ones used back in the 50's and 60's.

 

They were not highly sophisticated, but they did catch bass, bluegill, crappie and catfish with no problems.

I was looking at it on tw but I passed on it I’m not the biggest fan of the arashi line up but I’m thinking I might reconsider that now.

Bass in my profile picture was caught with one. Only issue with them is that you can’t burn them across the surface. They’ll turn over if you do. But I prefer it to my other topwaters in one of the ponds I fish where they mow the grass frequently. Anything else besides a frog (whopper plopper, popper, etc.) gets covered in cut grass and/or fouled up. Something about the wake crank keeps that from happening.

I actually added to an order this morning I needed to get over that 50 bucks for the free shipping I figured what heck I’ll give it a shot ????

If nothing else, I find them fun to fish. Something about trying to get the speed just right to get the perfect wobble appeals to me. You’ll know if you’ve got it, you can hear the thing rattling across the pond.
