hey, you're the expert on the bass newsgroup, right ??- I've yet to see
you post rod length recommended per lure weight used- which is ancient
rule of thumb for baitcasting- info that a baitcasting guru such as
yourself should know. A few have answered calmly and sensibly and were
informative. You are amongst the posters who attack people, over the
topic is fishing tackle.

you must be really fun to fish with, no doubt...no doubt...really
fun...

This thread reminds me of an old hypothetical question......"How many
angels can dance on the head of a pin?"

Is there really a right or wrong answer?

I also noted that some peope have more idle time on their hands than a
"fisherman" would .

Anyone interested in how the "hot" weather bite is going on Kentucky
Lake?

Why is "duty-honor-country" now posting as "CAINE"?

Charlie Nudo tries to dupe 'em yet again.

no not at all-

yesterday I went fishing with a large plug on this rig- it's casting
better as if the line and reel are breaking in or something- but still
not as far as my spinning rod

I'm just giving an objective view of this, that's all. Rather than
being more accurate and casting further, it is less accurate and
casting not as far as my spinning rig.

So I wanted to hear others' views, as to why they believe a baitcaster
is worthwhile. nothing more than that
