animalbarrie Posted January 21, 2020 Report Share Posted January 21, 2020 When it’s 27 degrees in MD and you can’t fish, you get bored and install power knobs. They turned out pretty good. I had to drill out the original knobs which wasn’t too hard. Both knobs are 41mm, I probably should have went with a 38mm, but it turned out okay. Now I just have to wait for big blue fish in the surf. IFish4Free, jon_elc, Basshole56 and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scoobydoo Posted January 22, 2020 Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 Gomexus sells some good stuff. I bought their carbon fiber handles for lowpros and spinners......I liked them enough to have bought multiples for my FW egg beaters. I have 200$ yumeya handles.....and they're really close. I put one on a certate and exist and another on shimanos..... Sheisty and animalbarrie 2 "Panacheless is no way to go through life" Tims Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoping to target some blue cats this weekend or next, as they're the only semi-reliable game in town, well in the salt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like we are getting a lot of rain Saturday and I am sure that will mess up the water for Sunday. It’s 16 degrees as I type this, all my spots are frozen solid.

But yes there is the rain issue...can't win in the winter in MD. Maybe I should just hit up stocker trout streams instead animalbarrie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll start fishing again in mid March. The largemouth might start moving around if it’s warm enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheisty Posted January 22, 2020 Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 Nice stuff for not a lot of coin, I have several knobs on old penn Spinfishers, and even on a daiwa fuego LT low profile baitcaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
