Thread: penn live linner

I am not meaning to start anything. Just giving my opinion.

Knowing Peaches I am pretty sure his comments were not serious. Wilson on the other hand is a different story.

Ok, this is not meant to be a thread to start bashing people. Lets either get back to the original topic or kill the thread since a new one was started about the original topic anyhow.

[size=12pt][font=comic sans ms]You didn’t start anything Dick. It just seems like when the fishing slows, the forum members start setting the hook on each other.

I have to agree about fishing the way you are comfortable and successful with; on 7-1-2012 this guy and his son not only got a nice King, but got it on a Zebco 808! Not sure I would feel too comfortable with that setup.

Much more comfortable with my grandson’s Cars Cartoon setup! This may be my funnest moment!

Why does everyone on our pier insist on the live liner type reels? I have seen multiple fish drop baits due to the pressure still on the line while "freespooling"..seriously guys is It so hard to open a bail? But whatever floats your boat....

My original response concerning a Liveliner was and still is:
If you're interested in a Live Liner and can swing it, I would say go for it. I have said it before and I'll continue to say that the 560L is probably the best king reel available for up to three times its price.

Note to idahotater

Don't let all the BS run you off. It's been several weeks since the last ball bustin' and it was over due.
Go to a diving board, golf board, cycling board or any place where equipment is discussed and you'll see the same thing. :slap:
One thing there is plenty of on this board is opinions. oke1:
