  1. I’ve heard some very productive captains make mention of importance of running the same spoon stacked (mag low standard high). I’ve heard most specify this tactic for early morning fishing with glow spoons, carbon14’s, etc - for first bite of the day. Usually chute rigger.

    Question is: is it more effective to run a stacker with each spoon on separate rod, or a slider (with the standard spoon being the slider)? Also, short leads or long leads? Run these deepest?? If stacking, distance between the two on the rigger cable???

    Are these even viable questions or is there a different technique that works different days or for different boats?

  2. One BigJon mast with base. No reels or pulleys. $50.

    Two homemade masts with Ryobi reels and clothesline pulleys. Don’t laugh cuz they ran mint and you’re jealous your homemade rig doesn’t work this sweet. $50/pair cuz that’s how much I have into materials to make them. I made new taller dual masts and took the reels and pulleys off the BigJon.

    Located in Holley. Shipping on your dime.

    Trades for???

  3. Any bad press about Okuma drags was from many years ago (some people can't give it up)
    I have used Okuma reels for well over 10 years and have found many ways to loose a fish but it has never been the  reels fault (including Magdas)
    Yes, drag washer upgrades might be needed on the older ones, but I believe all new Okumas use the Carbonite drag washers.
    If you want to talk about drag problems contact Tuna Tom in Ludington  and ask him what is the #1 reel he has had to upgrade the drags on!
    It starts with a T and everyone acts like those reels are the best thing ever made
    I will keep my Okumas and spend the extra money on drugs and alcohol (I do not condone this type of activity, but it has worked for me)

    Fkn savagery, especially after a long day of boating many fish - using Okuma reels..... you sumna**** I’m in.
    I’ll run em full of power pro and not look back.
    Ps, you won the internet today.
    PPS - idk if I could justify Tekota prices.

  4. I’ve heard of sticky drag, catastrophic meltdown when a big king goes for a 200’ run, inaccurate line counter.
    I’m well aware of the brand loyalties.
    I’m not familiar with the Stratamaster like I am with Convector or Magda so my curiosity was if anyone had any experience with the stratamaster and good/bad/indifferent experience relative thereto.

  5. Have two okuma stratamaster sm30d reels. Curious with all the negativity associated with Okuma reels if these are going to run as well and are as tough as my daiwa and penn reels? I run primarily Daiwa 47 reels. Few Penn 320’s. These would be serving as rigger rods for me. 

    not sure on their age, but they’re in seemingly excellent near new condition.  If they’re inferior to my Daiwa and Penn reels, then I’ll just use them for spring brown trout planer board fishin.
