    DC is a different technology. If it were for all purposes, that's the only kind of reel Shimano would produce. They do not. DC reels are ideal for throwing baits in tough conditions: Long...

    Same here, 17 pound fluoro for a 1/2 oz bait. The trailer and how you put it on the bait is really important. I like straight tail trailers and they have to be small enough and put on straight. It...
