Did you guys see the nat-geo program- monster fish- about that? the first pongees were smuggled in for food, then discarded in the washington Dc area waters. now they're trying to get a grip on the population and the rapid infestation.

Hi skunked. nope not yet. no rod yet either. I did see the curado and citica "e" 's on tackletour. looks pretty good. lots of new reels coming tho. will keep you posted.

I remember having a berkley combo. the rod and reel was blue, no roller on the bail and I lost the handle after using it only the 2nd time at the Haleiwa breakwater. The reel was dumped, the guides all rusted off and the blank was turned into the best oama pole. Then I had a Garcia Mitchell 308. Goo...

Hey CaBass
Make sure you've got a good cover for the tank or you many find your snowflake eel dried up on the ground somewhere. They're notorious for that.

and anyone knows how they got there? talk about "bass" kept secrets!!!!

Awesome smallies! Great catch. I've lived all my life in the Kalihi/ Liliha area and have never tried those little streams other than for medaka/tilapia/crayfish. The miracle of freshwater fishing!!! I'm a little confused tho... the smallmouth thrives in the little ponds/streams but is scarce in Lak...

To all the tackle ho's out there.....
BPS reels are made by daiwa?
Who makes the Cabela's private brand reels??

Hey Ca_Bass
Congrats on your two new babies!!!

So what kind of boat did you get Ca_Bass??

If only there was bass in enchanted lake..........

No problem Ca_bass
I had a chance to try a friend's 7' ML w/ fast taper rod. It was a BPS model, not a shimano or ffenwick but it sufficed. I got a good feel of the flex of the rod. now just gotta decide which one......maybe both.....

Wow. I've yet to experience some huge fish attacking a tuc!

Kahuna- so I guess we're back into "big bait big fish" season yea???

FW fishing is big in the americas as well as asia. What about Europe? I havent googled it yet, just thought I'd get some input first........

Skunked, damn that antares looks sweet. $700 bux for a reel......... Have you tried the calcutta DC? the calcutta is what, about 5 bills? Is it worth it? And no, still havent decided on a reel. Too many choices. The core DC is coming out too? They've got a metanium Dc posted on japantackle. And I th...

Howzit Kahuna- thanks for the input. Are there any brands that are favorable to you?

Ca_bass- no problem. when you have time is ok w/ me. Which BPS in FLA are you going to and how far away is it from where you are?
