[quote Fin_Addict]You're the one that brought physics into the this discussion so the burden of proof is on you for proving what you claim. If You're going to claim physics as your basis show me and others some mathematical equations to prove your claims. Just as you I can argue the use of longer rods versus shorter ones. Has to do a hell of a lot more with action, rod speed, and angler experience, and line selection than rod length. I can teach someone how to use a 9' long rod with the right line, reel, and rod action and speed as you can with your short rods. I can keep just as much tension and drag on those fish and catch jut as many fish. Guaranteed. I just found it falsifying and misleading to tell people that physics had anything to do with it. That short rods are somehow "scientifically superior" based on "physics" as you claim, this longer rods. A seriously misguided claim. Prove me wrong though and I'll sing your praises. I'll happily buy one of your rods and pit against any of mine and see which one performs the best. My feeling is it has a hell of lot more to do with experience than the individual rod.[/quote]
Holy crap, you're a condescending, know-it-all.
[quote Fin_Addict]I'm sure it is and I'll try one without prejudice. I also feel that guides are somewhat of a hoax as far as fishing goes. With enough research and study of a species a guide is not needed.[/quote]
Wow.
