[QUOTE="Ristorapper, post: 228514, member: 810"] My best reply as well even before you start buying equipment. Jump in with someone you may know or someone that will take you out and give you a basic understanding of pulling cranks. Ask as many questions as you can come up with. Ask about gear; what's junk and what's worth buying. I like braid. Some of my best friends like mono. Stick your money more so into the reel and not so much into the rod so to speak. Master one rod before you want to put two in the water. If you are a river fisherman like i think i heard you say, you need to have those baits on the bottom. That app will give you the lures types, the line in feet out and how far down that will get you. This winter during the dead of the year, (unless you ice fish) pull up everything you can read about pulling cranks. There is an amazing amount of video as well. I remember all too well the first many, many times i pulled cranks on the Missouri without any help. Took me a long time by myself to try to master it, and that i did (I think). Now go out and do all the things we are telling you, to cut that learning curve way down!! good luck. [/QUOTE]
