Cali's on crank

My bro Dave is visiting from Havasu so we decided to head out to toss cranks at the bass - weather was sorta crappy and SST was around 60 - sorta cold for the action we were after but I had a bag of TJW's just in case...we really had to work for the 25 or so fish we got but it was a blast fishing with my brother - here's the stud in action!

I haven't really noticed much difference - I've used clear & smoke Ande and this particular trip we were spooled up with light blue P-Line. Calico's become very excited when chasing a lure in the top 5' of water and probably never notice the line - most likely could use straight Spiderwire...

Cali's

Looks like you guys were off the kelp line aways, were they suspended in open water?

Nope - we were working the very outer edges. We look at least 100 yards from the kelp in the pic - we were working a patch that was to the left, out of the camera range.

Yep, sure is. When Shimano stopped making them I went around several stores and bought all I could find at half price. IMO it is the absolute best rod for this type of crankbait tossing. I still have 3 of them that see quite a bit of action every season.

I thought so...I had a couple as a youngster. Man takes me right back to days after high school at G-St pier downtown.

Bitchen rods.

Shimano has it all figured out...no blanks for the builders
