Diawa Luna and the St Croix counterpart would be awesome if the anti reverse issues would be addressed. Almost lost a fish while netting it because of that.

Picked up a Musky Innovations rod and it's been great so far.

Stealth leaders are good. It was my first season of using flouro leaders and I was impressed. It was nice to not have to bend a leader back into shape or waste time swapping out a new one after catching a fish.

I still can't buy a fish on a Jake...

Rad dog spinnerbaits need to be made better. Lost a fish trolling one in the propwash. Lure broke in half and stayed with the fish. Not cool. Bought 2 more replacements and one broke in the same place while trolling after about 2 hours. Both broke where it loops, and they were both looped differently. My drag was not too tight when the first one broke.

Any big spinnerbaits with 10 blades that can be trolled at 4mph without rolling or breaking? I did okay with the Cyco spinner from Musky Mayhem, but it rolls once in a while. Maybe more weight like 3oz would help.
