Some of the reviews indicate 10 lb ish trigger pull........ put an adjustable or replaceable trigger on it and I would be interested.

JTT...... what's the .17 WSM or .17 Rem do to a fox?

I purchased a CZ 452 in .17 HMR 8 or 9 years ago, and put a Leupold 3 x 9 Vari-X III on it....... It's been reliable and accurate. Good for fox, coons, and walking pigeons...... a little too lite for yotes IMHO. I'm itchin to get a .17 WSM......

EMT Gel will help with cuts and bleeding.... Ears bleed like crazy

What booth/display will they be at?

Casting is "different". Look up a couple videos on Wallis cast and you will see how to cast with minimal line twist. Like was mentioned, casting off the side is another method. A combination of the two is what most people use. Spending some time in your yard casting just a heavy float will help you get the hang of it. I spent about 10 hours over the course of a week wallis casting a float in my front yard before ever going to the creek, and I'm sure it saved me alot of frustration. Most centerpins have no drag system, so the hand on the reel spool is your drag. In the winter months, guide icing can make for more tangles, so you'll get in the habit of deiceing more often or pay the price. I have changed all of trib trout fishing to centerpinning, and really do enjoy it.

You may consider some "rubber meat"......... MCRockets. There's a learning curve, and a time and a place for them, but I prefer them to real meat 80% of the time.

My experience is that they work very well........ I really can't think of cons...... I've used them for ducks and pigeons, and set up a rechargable battery to use with them...... As for size, I'm not sure it matters much...... I've used a mojo dove in with duck decoys, and they really don't seem to care..... it's the flash that attracts them.....
