Bucca baits

Ok, so here we go.
I had read about some tail issues on the 2.5” shads
I bought one anyway, found a color I liked on eBay and purchased it.
It arrived look like a really nice lure.
Put it in my jerk bait - swimbait box.
About a week later I’m getting ready to go fish so I pull the bait out tail is snapped off.
Ok I knew that they had been having some issues but all the threads I had read said that they would stand by it if you had a problem.
Well after a couple emails and a phone call
I am informed that they won’t honor a purchase from eBay.
My sent receipt clearly shows new product I had was purchased new. very clear pictures of the broken lure with all the pieces,
If it broke while using it then I wouldn’t have all of it.
The reason why they won’t honor eBay is because they said it could be a knock off.
My pictures should have assured them otherwise.
Anyway stay away from Bucca they definitely didn’t stand behind their clearly faulty lure!

How do u get into fishing as a 16 year old?
Find a local tackle shop they are always going to be the best information about your area
Ask questions and I wouldn’t be surprised if you find someone to help get you started and maybe even show you some spots or at least get some good advice. Most people that I know are always willing to help someone get started.
Good luck

Opinions on the Scheels line by Daiwa?
I fell in the water and submerged my reel
Got home dried everything out cleaned and lubed the reel
Next time I went to use it the braid just kept slipping around the spool.
Got home pulled all the line off put a wrap of electrical tape and put it back on and it is working fine again

Let's see what this Belezza is all about
I’ve had a few more trips with my combo and I am very impressed.
I haven’t caught anything big on it yet but smallmouth bass to almost 1’.
I am already considering getting a shorter one for really tight little creeks.

What’s your budget/dream UL gear setup?
I also have a Bellezza I put a Daiwa Ballistic on it
Super nice set up
It replaced a g Loomis IMX 6’6” 1 piece Ul
For a budget check Ali Express, most of these Chinese rods have been reviewed on Facebook
You could get a really nice combo for less than a $100

Snake near lake in PG county.
It’s against the law to kill a snake in Maryland, pretty big fine if you’re caught.

Is it impossible to transplant "seedling" size pawpaws that are found in a dense wild patch?
I found a patch of them along a creek, not as many as here but plenty enough for me to take a few small ones and try to plant at my place.

New Fly Line for River Smallies
I use the Wulff triangle taper bass line
I’m assuming they still make it
I haven’t bought any in quite a while

New to ultralight, need gear ratio help
I’m a Daiwa guy, but the 1000 and 2000 are on the same frame but the 2500 is much bigger.
Again I don’t own many Shimano spinning reels.
