Best Spinning Reel For light lines??

Posted on January 23, 2012 by admin| 7 Comments

Crappie season has arived here in Arkansas and I always have a hard time with the light line and low jig weight.

The line twists, it wont cast far enough, the rod is too stiff, and a host of other problems.

BTW the little tiny “ulta light” combos dont cast far enough!!

Can someone help me out and reccomend a combo with at least a 6 foot long rod. It needs to be able to cast with light line and very light jigs for long distances.
I am looking for a specific brand and model number.

Someone who will say more than……ultra light is what you need??

I am needing one at least 6 feet and length

Also would like to know a good reel

What to use when fishing?

Posted on September 3, 2010 by admin| 4 Comments

Ok, I have a big question. My favorite fishing spot is McCook Lake. It’s an oxbow lake formed from the Missouri river. I fish at the end of the lake. I need some help. I have a hard time getting fish to bite, so if anyone can help me out that’d be awesome. He’s what the fishing spot is like:

- There’s a pipe where the river water comes into lake. The water’s moving pretty fast out of there and cause a lot of turbulence. I’m hoping the fish are used to it and maybe it’s helping because it’s putting oxygen into the water.
- 5-8 feet depth
- Lot’s of vegitation on the shores, but the lake bottom is pretty barren.
- Rocks by the pipe and mud further away.
- Know species of fish there are carp, channel and flathead catfish, largemouth and white bass, walleye, and crappie.

I need some tips to help catch walleye, catfish, and largemouths. I fish from the shore only.

Why won’t my bird climb onto my shoulder or arm?

Posted on January 17, 2010 by admin| 5 Comments

I have a small parrot. We know that he has been abused by previous owners and some guests in our house give him a hard time, but other than that we have shown him love and affection. He will take food from our hands, let us pet him, and even has flown and landed on my head once or twice, but still will not let perch on my arm or shoulder. He is extremely tame, he spends most of his day on a special made perch on top of his cage and only flies short distances to stretch his wings. He lives in my room, so he is used to me and I am his best friend in the house, yet my predicament still stands. I would love to get him on my arm soon because I am soon leaving for college and also will be at home rarely during the summer. Can anyone help me?
