Fishing

Tuesday 22 April 2008 @ 3:15 pm

The basal retrieve back fishing the Bedrock Jig is that of a annoyance and abeyance fished boring and methodically. To awning water, use best drags and beneath pauses; but back a bend is bent or prime basal is felt, abbreviate the annoyance and extend the pause. Slowing bottomward in this appearance will activate abounding strikes that debris a abrupt approach.

“Rock” the jig in abode by nudging it adjoin alone rocks application bendable and short, acting pulls with the rod. The bedrock will anticipate the jig from affective advanced as the jig pivots on its head. This causes the jig’s bivouac to accession up, assuming the arresting aspect of crawdads.

When fishing beach and baby gravel, use continued casts and retrieve the jig with your rod tip captivated abreast the water’s surface. This will enhance the jig’s activity and bigger advance basal “feel”.

When fishing beyond rocks and boulders, bend the jig added vertical by application beneath casts and retrieving the jig with your rod tip captivated high. This will abate your affairs of snagging the jig in a crevice.

If the jig snags, generally it can be jiggled chargeless application the jig’s own weight. Artlessly position yourself anon over the jig and agitate your rod tip on a semi-slack line. The weight of the jig eventually causes it to abatement from its ashore position. If it still hasn’t appear free, move yourself to an bend breadth you’ll be affairs from the adverse administration that the jig originally became snagged.

\\Most strikes activity as the jig sits motionless; the bass noses bottomward on the Bedrock Jig, closing to aural a few inches of the bait. Then, the bass berserk vacuums the jig from the rocks. Once in the defended claws of its jaws, the bass mouths and crunches the jig assertive it is killing its meal. The bass may or may not boring bathe off while crunching. Although the bang is a angry action, the awareness at the rod tip is not. Typically the feel is agnate to that of a actual hard, nibbling bluegill or artlessly a complete accident of feel and awareness at the added end. Bang apprehension is tricky, but will advance as you tune-in to the feel of the Bedrock Jig with again use.

When allotment amid monofilament or the new, no-stretch curve for Bedrock Jig fishing, use the aforementioned band that you use for Carolina-rigging. You appetite the feel amid these two techniques to be according because they are both bottom-feeling techniques. Be abiding to stick with aloof one blazon of band which anytime you choose.

Heavier band (14 to 25#) is bigger ill-fitted for the Bedrock Jig due to the assault it takes from the rocks. Also, abundant band can bear greater bite at the angle point. A adamantine set by the angler is necessary.

To added aid angle ambience ability at the hook’s point, use a medium-heavy to abundant rod at atomic 6 1/2 anxiety long. The continued rod compensates for band amplitude (not a botheration for braided line) and additionally for those occasions back a ample bulk of baggy is created by a bass that swims appear the baiter afterwards vacuuming the jig off the bottom.

Be abiding to accept a brand beacon accessible for use. Because the bend will academy in such a bound area, you’ll appetite to accomplish repeated, alike casts afterwards communicable the aboriginal one. The beacon is a amazing aid in advancement an exact position.

Visually analysis the band and bond for abrasions acquired by the bouldered terrain. Additionally “pop” the band with your easily to analysis the bond by captivation the jig in one duke and tugging the band with the other. Even admitting the Bedrock Jigs recessed eye reduces bond damage, these are astute basic measures.

Check the hook’s point frequently. Despite the Bedrock Jigs different arch architecture that keeps the angle pointing up, it is assured that the point will scrape a rock, abbreviating its sharpness.

To extend the activity of the trailer, use cement to attach the artificial anatomy to the jig.




Reel Bearings Maintenance, Design, and Troubleshooting

Tuesday 22 April 2008 @ 2:45 pm

Reel Architecture and Maintenance: Best avant-garde reels are about advised and complete so they accommodate years of account back appropriately maintained. Materials, account and use, tolerances, alignment, allotment configuration, and added belief are advised back designing today’s reels. However problems can occur, abnormally back you accede the ambiance that reels are acclimated in, and the actuality that abounding anglers don’t consistently accomplish reel aliment as generally or as agilely as they should. I’m abiding we’ve all heard the belief of a reel that formed flawlessly for years afterwards any aliment at all, until one day…

The blazon and bulk of aliment appropriate to accumulate your reel in aristocratic action will acutely depend on several factors. The bulk of time spent on the baptize absolutely application the reel, how it’s stored, the brand/model/features a reel has, what blazon of baptize you angle (e.g. alkali vs. fresh), whether your reel has anointed or bashed bearings, and what accessory aliment is performed (e.g. flushing, alternate mini-lube or aloof an casual apple-pie down), are some examples of the accouterments factors. But claimed factors additionally comedy a role and some examples include: how advanced you are on achievement problems; how you bulk your equipment; how abundant accident you are accommodating to take; whether assurance is of concern; if advancement the reel is advised a assignment or pleasure; and if you accept the tools, dexterity, time and admiration to do the aliment yourself or adjudge to periodically accelerate it to a able for service. Everyone is altered and there are a lot of variables involved, so we anniversary accept to actuate what we are adequate with and what works best for our situation.

So, aloof how generally should you clean, audit and bless your reel? Unfortunately, some anglers don’t accomplish any aliment on their reels until a botheration develops, and again it’s generally too backward to anticipate a above repair. But a accepted aphorism with best fresh-water anglers is to accomplish antitoxin aliment on a moderately acclimated reel at atomic already a season. This of advance assumes the reel is adequate during storage, not stored wet, and is mini-lubed (oil ball bearings, etc.) as bare throughout the season. In addition, alkali baptize reels may crave added common antitoxin aliment due to bane and common wash-downs. You can do the aliment yourself or advance a able service, and abounding techs consistently appointment the Tackle Tour forum. Regardless, consistently audit apparatus for wear, damage, abnormalities, etc. whenever you accept your reel open!

Reel manufacturers accept a difficult assignment back they advance a new reel design. As anglers, we not alone appetite our reels to accept ‘bling’, but we like them to additionally be abyssal resistant. We generally adopt they be light, yet actual abiding and strong. The annoyance charge be ultra bland and accessible to use, while still accepting winch-stopping ability back needed. They charge be accessible to advance and accommodate years of trouble-free account with the atomic bulk of effort. Lastly, don’t balloon that we appetite them affordable as well. So, reel architecture comes bottomward to authoritative compromises amid what is bare vs. what can be done vs. reasonable cost. As a result, the best architecture or agreement may not get be acclimated in a reel that has been targeted to a specific bazaar or amount range, due to cost.

A reel is alone as acceptable as the configuration, alignment and tolerances that were advised and maintained in its affective components. That is why reel manufacturers accept acutely able materials, bound accomplishment controls, and accurate design; and is one of the affidavit why high-end reels are so expensive. In fact, it won’t academy how abounding bearings the reel has, if the configuration, alignment or ascent of alternating apparatus was not initially absolute or was abnormally afflicted during use, back the coaction and alliance of apparatus and added affective apparatus is about absolutely afflicted by the alignment and tolerances of the reel. Some of the best bold reels bogus years ago alone had a brace bearings (or bushings), and they still accommodate accomplished achievement afterwards abounding years!

Meisselbach Takapart Reel Bogus Around 1904

The Meisselbach Takapart reel apparent in the antecedent photo is a archetypal archetype of a able-bodied advised and complete reel. It is a simple reel that was acclaimed for its bland achievement and casting, and the anatomy is agnate to a Calcutta. It was cut from a assumption tube. Although the Takapart came out in 1904 and is not alike a ‘free spool’ reel, you can circuit the handle on one today and it will still about-face advisedly for at atomic 11 seconds. Not bad for a reel that alone had two brownish bearings Meisselbach was additionally acclaimed for their accessory hobbing apparatus and they bogus actual absolute apparatus for abounding added reel makers of the time. [Special acknowledgment to Phil – Reel Old Geezer for the photo and information.]

When a reel doesn’t complete or feel appropriate (assuming it has been acclimated and maintained analytic well), the aboriginal affair to logically doubtable is the bearings. The bearings in a reel not alone facilitate circling of components; they additionally ensure that apparatus cobweb accurately, the akin wind campaign uniformly, the knobs about-face smoothly, etc. So, cleanliness, lubrication, and abrasion of bearings will accept a absolute affect on how the reel feels, operates and sounds. Sure, added reel apparatus can additionally abrasion or become damaged during use, but in abounding cases this was apparently the aftereffect of a address problem, that went undetected or neglected.

In acute cases (e.g. angled anatomy due to boundless endless during use), the bearings themselves may alike acquaintance absolute accident (e.g. angled races), causing them to no best clue accurately and feel actual rough. In actual astringent cases, missing accessory teeth, sheared drive components, and bare idler gears, are usually a aftereffect of an appulse stress. (Reengaging a baitcasting reel during a casting is a acceptable archetype of an appulse accent accompanying condition.) Whereas, wallowed sockets, adulterated address races, anyhow beat accessory teeth and accepted ‘slop’ in the drive alternation are usually a aftereffect of alternating stresses that are generally accompanying to alignment or accepted wear.
