I have a couple of Calcutta TE 401's with the power handles and they work well but for big blades (size 13 & up) I like this 7001 by Abu Garcia. It has a low ratio (4.1:1) and is a beast but it also weighs 21 ounces so that is the trade off. http://www.muskyshop.com/modules/cart/products.php/nav_id/...

This is why I spent the time to grind down all the barbs on all my hooks with a Dremel tool. This way unhooking should go very swiftly and the fish will be back in the water. I know the theory that if you apply the proper pressure and technique that you will not lose any fish with barbless hooks bu...

Re: Boat Rental
I think that Lake Ovid rents boats but I have never heard of a place that would rent the whole boat and trailer.Jim tenHaaf wrote:Does anyone know of a rental place that actually rents out the boat, motor, and trailer for a week or so?

Okay so I get what they're saying so do you just guide the line with your finger in the same way a levelwind does? Yes, as the line comes in you use your thumb to keep it even. If you have ever seen the videos where a guy gets pulled overboard most of the time that's not the drag set wrong its a lo...

Re: Levelwind question
I understand the theory behind a levelwind but what is its advantage(if any) over a non-levelwind reel? Why do freshwater reels have them and saltwater reels don't? Check out the 4th post down and it makes sense and I grew up saltwater fishing and all the reels did not have levelwinds and keep in m...

Re: GPS lakemap chips
Do you GPS users out there have any preference for the Lowrance vs. the Navionics chip for small-lake use? Which is the better deal? Thanks, Larry I purchased the Navionics hot maps premium 2008 based on coverage and what the guys at Cabela's recommended. I bought the East map and only used it for ...

That 4:1 might be good for a grinding reel, lots of power for double 10 blades and big cranks. One of the most important things that I have learned on my reels is to get one with a lower ratio. I would also look for one that either comes with a power handle or you can add a power handle for double ...
