boat mounted fishing rod holders 2-Tube Holder – White, – Side-Mount Mounts anywhere Rod Holder - Vertical Side

The outcome: without using my thumb to slow the spool, Im able to cast a lure maximum distance in any wind condition

But these screw locks will only work with traditional soft plastics, not the stretchy ones

I own a DAM 1000 which would be an outstanding reel if the rotor/bail assembly wasn't so awful

Daiwa doesnt claim that this reel is fully sealed, per se, but the reel does have nine internal seals as well as one atop the rotor arm over the drag and another between where the reel handle screws onto the body

As Ive written about previously in The Fisherman , one of the great things about Slug-Gos is that they can be used in heavy, weeded cover, and you can drag them right across the tops of lily pads
