Chinese junk.
Permalink  
 


I am really frustrated with the Fishing industry. I buy expensive Mayhem Cowgirls and the blades fall off in 1 week. Cat's Tails Lures are 1/2 the price and not 1 blade has fallen off in 10 years. I buy Eppinger spoons ($12) and the gold wears off in 1 week. I have my grandpas $1 spoon from 1966 and it is still gold. I buy expensive rods and the eyes fall off. I have my Dad's rod $20 from 1972 and it has all eyes. I lost 2 rods, reels, line, leaders and lures on one trip when muskies snapped the Atwood rod holders at the base on impact and everything tumbled in the water, I lost money on the guide trip. They said they were not made for muskies. I told them to put a damn warning label on the package. I snapped 2 Beckman net hoops. I couldn't bend my Frabill if I netted Oprah. They raise the price of boats so you have to get financing and pay interest . $50,000 for cheap junk. The knobs fall of the compartments and chairs. Hell the gas gauge quit working in 1 month. The red/green bulbs blow weekly. I am ready to fish like Loius Spray. He shot 3 muskies over 60 pounds with a pistol. To hell with rod, reels, line, leaders, and lures. I am going muskie hunting with my deer rifle.. You girls in bikini's that want to go muskie fishing with me better spend some time at the shooting range first. Call Terry Mcquoid he can help you with that!

Talked to Eppinger MFG in Dearborn Michigan today. They are taking extremely good care of me. I guess it pays to bitch, my wife learned that years ago.

I sent my wife to Brainerd to get me muskie rods. She came back with 5 Fleet Farm muskie rods. I had the Aitkin DNR Fisheries along trying to get scales so they could age the muskie to see how fast they were growing. The muskies snapped every Chinese junk rod on impact. Ever fight a 53 incher with the butt and the rod tip slowly making its way to the fish? They put on gloves and grabbed the line tugging the fish towards the boat. They looked like a bunch of uneducated Mexicans fighting a marlin without a fishing rod. It was hilarious.

Shame it sold out so quickly, I could get a spare one. Howerver, I'd also get a quick detach mount this time. I had to purchase it because the turret body on my scope was too big for the QD mount I had in mind. The distance between the rings for this mount is about 4". I intended to use this on a .308 rifle and I knew for a fact that the adjustment screws would loosen up after a few shots. A very nice buy overall, still.

This industry requires more and more from us and we should try harder and harder to increase income. So, fishing can be a bit easier and beneficial with the usage of night visage technology from https://www.agmglobalvision.com/ I think it can be one of the most appropriate ways out in our common situation.

Quality varies a lot manufacturer to manufacturer. For example, I've ordered some decently priced fishing+wading pants few years ago from amazong or something: 1 season and they were done for, started leaking everywhere and I had to throw 'em out. On other hand, last year I've got Storm Nano pants from https://gritroutdoors.com/apparel/fishing-clothing/pants and it's been a blast! Didn't have to fix anything except some waterproofing after 12+months! Huge difference in quality for around the same price.
