Re: megabass vs shimano

megabass has more fancy feature which can be quite gimmicky sometime
glorious has shimano proprietary ci4 reel seats which you won't find in any rods others from shimano

Re: Megabass 110's...... Maybe not

Since when was the 110's mass produced? Or any of his baits. You don't see every tackle shop carrying them anf if they do see them having more than 15 in stock of one color.

Re: New Shimano Spin - casting distance compared to Daiwa?

Also, to be fair, I think a 2500 size Daiwa is bigger than a 2500 size Shimano? in term of line capacity,yes daiwa 2500 is equivalent to C3000 or 3000 size shimano, C3000 shimano has deeper spool than it's 2500 counterparts, but the outer spool width, the one which count when casting performance is...
