I know my longest casts were about 50 yards (I measured them), and that was exactly how much braid was spooled onto the reel

Heavier weights typically encourage aggressive strikes from bass, who respond better when the bait falls faster into the water

Final Thoughts Ive been a fan of Trika rods for a while now, and I can safely say their new TI100 reels are just as good

Similarly, this is in BG 4500 and up, while smaller reels have a simpler drag clicker design, which still works very reliably

Makes a great gift for the angler in your life

They work exceptionally well when striped bass are actively chasing baitfish near the surface, during the fall migrations
