Over the course of the next month or so, I'm going to be testing and refining my rod, reel & line selection for a number of fishing styles and techniques.  I don't have a big budget, in fact, I'm going to work around the gear I already have (this whole season has been a work in progress).   As I become a better educated angler, I'm making smarter choices and I'm hoping to make a system that works well for me.

Don't take this as gospel, but follow along and if I come up with something that could make you a better angler in the long run, then glad to help you out.  I'll post another blog with what I've got for setups, tackle, and then in the future I'll keep you updated on any little tweaks I make.
