I got a couple of the new Blitz DRs

Congratulations
Post Picture if possible

Couldn’t snap a pic of this fish, had everything was all over the place in the boat.
Here’s the bait though:

O.S.P. soft baits are just as productive as the hard baits.

It’s been a while since I’ve used but man, oh man, what a sweet reel for pitchin’ jigs. Even on a Daiwa Signature Tatula 7’3”. Spooled with 16lb Sunline and a 1/2 oz O.S.P. Zero One jig and an Uncle Josh pork rind.

Are you using the original spool?

Yes, Sir, I am.

Well now I’m just going to have to do a comparison of annual rosters. I used my example because the pro had I think 3 rods with his name on them. Wouldn't be any fun if I just named names now would it? :lol: I can’t expect that from you though, you have something at stake. You won’t get the top $$$...

Going from Daiwa to Lew’s, I’m thinking a WHOLE lotta cash better be moving! as with Megabass to Enigma ;) I know of a pro this past year that was given an ultimatum to move to Lew's from their current sponsor because he was part of the Strike King team at the time. He is now no longer with Strike ...

Which begs the question, if all of these guys are “fishing on Daddy’s money” (another well known trope), why do they have to follow the highest $$$? :roll: How many people turn down MORE money???? So what you’re telling me is men don’t mind the chains wrought by their own choices? They are doing th...

I got my Kage 73MH I hate to sound like a broken record across my posts, but I just don't understand Daiwa anymore. This rod is more expensive than the Tatual and yet cosmetically it is a huge downgrade. There are no logos on reel seat, it is unpainted, and just looks like a step down in price poin...

It’s been a long time since I’ve had them in hand BUT has anybody noticed a similarity between the tackiness of the old Shimano Septon knobs and the new Daiwa knobs on the Zillions?
