Re: Reel Dress Up Parts?
I have about 70 casting reels. Daiwa, MB, Shimano. All but a few are customized a great deal inside and out. You can get parts about anywhere for the new platforms but the older platforms are tricky. Sometimes i have bought parts from JapanTackle, HH Studios, Tackle Trap, Brooklyn Bills when it was ...

Re: TD-Z Owners Guild
No doubt about it. Often over looked by the newer platforms. This one has an Ian tuned TDZ 105 spool and 8# copoly. It checks all the boxes for me for medium(ish) moving baits. The spool has great control and distance for the few baits I have tested with it the one day this spring I have been able t...

Re: TD-Z Owners Guild
I love this platform and years ago I acquired a few 103H’s. Got out of fishing for a few years and getting back into it. Cleaned up this one, cleaned and flushed bearings, did a Carbontex upgrade, Zaion drag star and Tatula 90mm handle assembly with OG Zillion handle nut, blacked out HH studios ret...

Re: Finding a cracked guide ring
Spinning or casting rod? If it is a spinner could the bail assembly that feeds the line onto the spool be the issue or have a rough spot? Have you tried line from a different spool to rule out a possible bad spool of line?

Re: Who is the MOST over rated ?
There is nothing worse than St Crotch. Absolutely garbage in every way. They have the looks of 70s rods. Trash hook up ratio for their jig rods. I have never lost more fish with any rod. You couldn’t pay me to use anything of theirs. I could care less if it is “Made in the USA”.

Re: Bass Fishing Not Very Popular?
This site has always been about the tackle first and foremost, mainly enthusiasts or upper tier equipment. I wouldn’t consider this site dedicated to bass fishing. It is more just general fishing, diverse fishing from all over the world using nice gear. Bass just happen to be pretty common in most r...

Re: TD-Z Owners Guild
Daiwa TD-Z Small Bait Special. IMG_8749.jpeg That's a rare spool. I have that exact spool in an IP68 for pitching and skipping weightless plastics on a gen 1 PP. Does an excellent job. He believes it to be Rays which I would agree. You are probably thinking of the MB honeycomb 36 mm spool. Which in...
