    I've bought everything from Maxcatch to Orvis Blackout $1000 rods. I'll never buy another Maxcatch or another $1000 rod. There is nothing a thousand dollars about a $1000 rod. There are plenty of cheaper rods that will catch loads of fish.

    A great reel. Machining is good. line is not bad. For the price it is a fantastic reel that has performed flawlessly on everything from Smallmouth & Largemouth, some over 4lbs. Trout up to 21” & even down to the shore for Schoolie stripers. Salt has been no problem. I fish sealed and no sealed reels in salt with no problems. Pull the spool of, swish around in bucket of water wipe down and let air dry. This is a killer reel that if it said O-VIS on the side would cost WAYY more.

    I'm 50/50 on the back pack. Having the option to carry a backpack might suit me better. Also isn’t airflow compromised with the material on the back of the vest compared to mesh backs most vest use? I feel it would be a hot treck in this vest. Saying that, convenience of having one pack would be good. Not having backpack straps over the vest pockets may also work out well. Anyone whose used this vest got any insights pertaining to my issues?? Would appreciate it.

    Good timing here too! I watched your budget rod vid and was looking at the Matchcatch Premier rod. They have a bundle with the Avid reel for 110 or their Toro reel for 123, Avid with a bunch of lines for 128. Think I'm going with the 128 bundle as my 1st setup.

    3 years later I hope it's still spot on. After doing a lot of research, vids, reading, looking at product, tons of fishing vids I decided to try this fly fishing path. Ironically, I just ordered your first pic, the maxcatch combo. Also decided, these will be the only flies I'll ever buy as I plan to tie my own. Lots of fun and aggravation ahead for certain! Looking forward to the adventure.

    Years ago I was fishing with my father and he hooked himself deeply into his finger with a barbed hook. I was freaked out but he calmly sat down and used his multi-tool to cut the eye off of the fly, and then grabbed the back of the hook with his pliers and popped it through the other side of his skin and just pulled the whole thing through. Ever since that day I have kept that trick in my back pocket. I have also considered that hook sharpness is incredibly important, not just for cleanly setting a fish, but for retrieval through the skin. I am quick to discard dull hooks

  • @richarde1355
    @richarde1355 Před měsícem

    I had a Liquid, 8 weight size, for very a short time; the drag was sticky on startup and the stickiness became more pronounced as the drag was increased. To the extent an 8 weight is a line size where the drag may be an important component of the reel, the reel went away quickly. A big difference between the Liquid and rhe Remix is the reel foot. The Liquid’s reel foot is part of the frame, the Remix has a replaceable reel foot. The aluminum material used in forming cast reels is brittle. Drop the Liquid on its reel foot, and that foot will snap. I have a couple of cast reels with non-replaceable cracked/broken reel feet, and those reels are not useable and are parts reels. Maybe I had a Liquid that was made at the end of the day on a Friday, because other Liquids and Remixes I have seen had smooth drags. These reels offered by Lamson seem like a tremendous value, but I’m hesitant to pick one up; once bitten twice shy,
