There was talk in 1982 of the school changing its name for better recognition. Maybe University of Honolulu, or Saint Louis-Honolulu, something like that. But when the world learned there was a Chaminade, the school wasn’t about to change its brand. “I think that game kind of set our name in stone,” Rodrigues says. “It didn’t really hit us until the next day,” Rodrigues says. “The news stations were all calling the athletic department and we all had to go down and do some pictures.
The best baitcasting reel on the market depends on your particular needs. So, the line spooler should be easy to store between jobs, whether it’s full-sized or portable. Stashing the spooler out of the way reduces clutter and protects the spooler from damage. Enough nets were lost or discarded each year to cover Scotland. If all types of lost line was tied together, it would be able to stretch round the Earth 18 times.
When a bowfin bites you need to hit it hard and muscle it in, and if your gear isn’t up to task, rods will snap as they dart, jump, and thrash from hookset to landing. As with many “trash fish,” look hard enough and you’ll find plenty of people who will tell you you’re missing out on some great food. In parts of the Midwest, fried carp sandwiches are staples in bars. People of Eastern European decent love them so much they’ll purge them in clean water for days to remove the muddy taste before feasting. But, edibility aside, carp are brutal fighters regardless of what kind of gear you use to catch them.
In addition, fishers lose over 25 million pots and traps and nearly 14 billion longline hooks each year. A school of bonito can change geographic locations in a tail beat. All of a sudden, the cooling water started feeling uncomfortable on their sensitive gills and they made a beeline to the south. Some went through the gap between Anacapa and Santa Cruz islands and some went down the coast between the mainland and Anacapa Island. Where I grew up, pike weren’t readily available, but there was no shortage of pickerel water. From lakes to ponds, swamps to creeks, I quickly learned that pickerel were hungry 365 days a year.
First and foremost, you want a baitcasting reel that fits your hand properly. While there are still some round-bodied reels on the market, most of today’s offerings have a low profile which allows them to be palmed. Finally, there are plenty of baitcasting reels that serve a wide variety of purposes and applications.
For bigger jobs, like changing line on a dozen reels or filling large reels with line, ask for a full-size line spooler capable of handling a bulk filler spool. This is a game full of specialized gear, such as electronic bite alarms, bait-feeder reels, and premade baits and chum. Then there are carp fly addicts like me that will spend all day sight-fishing for them, hoping one makes a mistake and sucks up my wooly bugger. The point is that carp fishing can be as technical or simple as you want to make it. Even if you just pin some corn on your trout rod, you’ll catch them, and they’ll let you know how good your reel’s drag system is in a hurry.
