Why do you keep buying Bass Pro made in China products, it is just a few bucks ?

WHY DO ANGLERS KEEP BUYING BASS PRO MADE IN CHINA PRODUCT?  “Inshore Saltwater Rods”
 
 
We started off this morning with a couple of customers who wanted new inshore saltwater rods. As most of us know that depending on where you fish inshore salt the rod of choice can be Spinning because of wind, and a lot of popping cork fishing and lighter lines and baits. So the spinning rod comes into play a lot. Do not want to offend any of the Louisiana anglers who like their casting rods either.
Well to make a long story short , it hit a level of frustration with us in trying to figure out why when you are spending a lot of money to pursue the passion for Trout, reds, calico, Tarpon, permit, flounder, stripers and any other inshore species, why would anyone settle for a half ass (excuse my French) fishing rod. So we took a close look at the inshore products available on our site in rods. We all came to the same conclusion manufacturers would rather offer half ass and save some money and short the anglers on what the right rod is rather that does it right. We know this is only one opinion right, but if you really look at it there was one rod company that has some spinning rods and gets it. Maybe it is because they are in the neighborhood of a great redfish or channel bass as they sometime call it in the Carolina s. We are referring to CASHION RODS.
Cashion Rods are not cheap but at 199.00 for a spinning rod configured for the duty it has and made in the USA and made by some people who get inshore fishing, it is worth a consideration. It all starts in inshore salt with Action and that can be fast, moderate fast, or moderate depending on what you like to fish with, switch baits like mirror-lure, soft plastics, top water, popping cork or even live bait. Length is a big deal to how in the world can all the manufactures not make a 7’6” or longer rod so that leaders and corks can work with it, and if you think about it if you wade you need a longer rod and casting farther in saltwater inshore is pretty important. The guides on the rod have to be set up right and they better be able to handle the braid we all like to use and the abuse the saltwater gives them, not some metal that last 2 years and the epoxy is cheap and the guides start popping off after a year or so.
Look to replace guides and tips on a rod made cheap is 25 bucks and replacing a decent rod every couple of years, really? Why not get a solid built inshore rod that is going to last and has the right people designing it and making it.
Anyway, if you think about it Cashion makes one hell of a rod and so does Cajun Custom Rods and both are right at 200.00 and they try to do it right, we love the redfish spinning rods by Cashion that cover the entire application for inshore light tackle fishing. So we will shut up now, but the next time you see a cheap ass rod made in china at bass pro that says inshore rod for 129.00 think about it before you get sucked in. They are called BASS PRO SHOPS for a reason not INSHORE FISHING SHOP.
Sorry we went off like that, but when you set the hook and it feels good say it loud Wahoo!

So you want to go Surf Fishing!


I WANT TO GO SURF FISHING WHERE DO I START!

Some things you might want to get before you jump in. A few Bombers 16A  bone, black, something with a chartreuse touch in it, SP minnows,  pencil poppers , plastic cotton Cordell and Smithwick  ones are inexpensive and work well but include a couple of good wood ones because the plastic models will not last as long. Add soft plastics like sluggos and Berkley Gulps,  and you're ready to get started. All in all probably 150.00-200.00 if you already have a rod and reel,  Use braid, 20 or 30#, fish with mono you will lose a lot of those lures, IF YOU NEED A ROD AND REEL THERE ARE A TON OF OPTIONS AVAILABLE STARTING AT 150.00 AND UP FOR ROD AND REEL. NOTHING LIKE THE SOUND OF THE SURF AND THE CATCH OF A LIFETIME!

When you set the hook and it feels good say it loud Wahoo!

Ribbit Ribbit it is Frog bite time!


http://b2b.maurice.net/B2BIMAGES/MEDIUM/00697713700084-M.JPG

 

Using hollow body frogs is one of most exciting ways to catch lots of bass, pike, and Muskie during late spring and a;; the way through the summer. There are many different ways to use frogs

 Most anglers’ fish a frog is by slowly twitching it over and through thick, heavy vegetation. There is a time in about May that the frog bite really turns on in the south and about 2-3 weeks later as you move north. The Frogs get active as the water temps rise and this creates easy targets for many fish.   Now that you know where the fish are, we will talk about catching them. Just cast your frog around the changes in structure whether it is pads or grass and some lakes the stumps. Frogs can create awesome action in open water as well. Remember walk the dog or walking the Frog in this case.

Use a walk-walk-walk-pause cadence. Change it up until you start getting strikes.

 

   The best frogs for walking thee frog are narrow bodies and flat sides. If you want to use as a popper type retrieve use the models with the big mouth and wider bodies that create the popping and noise in the retrieve.

The right tackle is critical in frog fishing. Wrong tackle you will give up after missing and or losing a lot of nice fish. Have a great frog rod at lease 7ft Heavy `action minimum with fast or extra fast action. Need a lot of speed on your reel retrieve we recommend at least 7:1 retrieve speed. Check out the Revo Winch, and also look at the Powell frog rods, and also the Cashion Frog Rods.

   Line:  Always use braid and you can cross over the 50lb to recommended 65 lb. braid to pull fish out of the weeds and vegetation and or cover.]

 

We are offering a free Superior frog with the purchase of two  Live target premium frogs.

Superior frog features a heavy-weighted body that cast 70-90 feet, always landing on its belly. Floats

Phenix Rods the best overall premium rod value?


Fishing Rod Blanks


 

 

A Rod's Blank Is Its Foundation, you build a rod on a Blank not right for the application or for the duty you want then you have a weak foundation and a rod you will not use. No angler will argue that fishing rod blanks is the most important piece of any fishing rod. If you ask a rod engineer they will tell you it is 80% of what makes a rod. Then comes the bling or durability of the other components and that is dictated by where and what you fish for. Typically defined as salt or fresh!

 

Fishing rods is the assembly of many different  parts


 

So what are the parts of a fishing rod after you have the blank? There are grips types, handles types, reel seats types, guide types, thread wrapping and even epoxy used to hold it all together. How these elements are place and the detail of the assembly is what makes a rod power, action, application, sensitivity and durability.  Every fishing rod manufacturer has their own "formula" of how to best build fishing rods, some or great others are not so great. Some manufactures fishing rod blanks components are made to their own specifications. The remainder may buy or import  rod blanks and components  from China or other countries.

The blanks are usually graphite, fiberglass, E-glass and more commonly, a combination of the two. Both materials have their place it all depends if you want sensitivity, durability, strength, or a combination of all three. Think of it like this all three cost more than just one. E-Glass is all strength light weight and strong the durability of E-glass can come into question some times. Fiberglass gives you strength and durability but less sensitivity. If you have graphite in the right mixture or what the industry calls modules. High modules is 640 million plus modulus and much more expensive and gives you all three. Standard Modulus in Graphite is 500 million Pulse Modulus and is not as light sensitive is also lessened. If you want to feel a fish think about hitting your bait use High modulus. If you want to feel every tap and touch then Standard which is the norm in graphite is the choice.

A angler can get so confused trying to fully understand the terminology of fishing rod components, especially fishing rod blanks, your head can explode. The important thing when you are shopping for a quality fishing rod is choice and  having a basic understanding of what goes into a good rod. The construction and components are what tells the tale. Not all fishing rods are the same, an ugly stick is ugly and not sensitive and fiberglass and in the end bomb proof and inexpensive for a reason. Not all rods are created equal, and not all rods can claim equal in quality and performance.

 MAKING THE CUT


So why all this chatter about fishing rods?, well if the blank, the components, and the rod design and application are all key to have Strength, durability, and sensitivity I think there is only one rod company that comes close to all three. It is not Shimano or G.Loomis which is not Gary Loomis or TFO which are made in China is not Gary Loomis it is Phenix Rods. With a lineup of rods that cover ground fish, trout, bass, halibut, offshore and more there is the only one in my opinion that truly tells you the blank design and composite story is Phenix Rods. Weight, size, application, durability, sensitivity and application are all addressed by Phenix Rods.  From Abyss Saltwater rods, to trout rods, to world class high modulus Bass rods. Phenix Rods is  my choice in a premium high Quality rod. The Devil is in the details, and all you have to do is look at the handle design, the detail cork work and the handle system all the Phenix Rods have amazingly good attention to detail and bling. There are lots of great rods on the market but I just keep coming back to Phenix rods.

All anglers are opinionated and much of that is caused by confidence and what we have has success with. However if you are not from California and you have not seen, touched or felt a Phenix rod check them out you will not be disappointed.

 

These remarks and opinions are not meant to disparage any rods they all have a place, this is the opinion of this Channel only J

 

Keep your rod tip down and your head up and the worm will turn, let’s go fishing Wahoo!
