Good to know that is seems to be a quality line. I'm always wary when a certain type of company (in this case rod builder) magically develops and brings to market a new product. Did they slap together a PE factory, or are they outsourcing and if so where and with whom? Questions I always like to kn...

This is one helluva good quality line. I'm running 30 on my Steez A HLC 6.3 paired with a custom Otterod MHX CB907 for 5/8-1.25 oz moving baits like lipless, topwaters, chatters, wakes, buzzbaits. The 10lb is very thin, excellent body/form, casts great and is strong and quiet. I have it on a Daiwa B...

Excellent read and write up...this rod will be en route to serve as a multi purpose light swimbait rod for 1-3 oz baits. Thanks Cal! Two years later? I'm surprised it's still available :lol: :lol: :lol: Haha...for sure. I have gone through a few sticks the last couple of years trying to find a 1-3 ...

That Bates Hundo has the looks down for sure.

Dang excellent and in-depth review...it's always good to have another quality player in the arena. And a Legendary American brand name at that.

if it records how many farts are laid during fishing I'm not buying it.

Has anybody else noticed that the Sleeper Craw has a Fook Guard? ABCF61A6-C138-401C-B783-CE3CB1EBA7C0.jpeg Weren't there twin Korean Sisters with the same first name, followed by "Yu" and "Mee" on Gold Member? We're going to see the twins! Haha...yeah man! :lol: 8-) :big grin:

Wow, insane videos of Josh Jones and this new technology/weapon, like it or not, is here to stay.

Just wanted to bump this article up as I don't see a lot on the SS Black version...sounds like this model is specifically more inclined towards power moving presentations and has larger fill sized guides, which I really prefer for larger diameter lines and connection knots on a few of my current rod...

Neat little reel, and so much akin to Daiwa in the form factor. Also, this is a unique take on how to maximize the versatility of braking systems and essentially almost achieves the same application as Daiwa's 3-D Magforce, IMO.

It was fun writing the article. Probably my most used Daiwa baitcasting reel this year.

Excellent job brother, thanks for putting the work in.

Ahhh yup... confirmed they're Alconites ... ... thanks for the heads up dragon1 ... i'll get to work on the corrections.

Koolio, thanks Cal. Alconites are an excellent and durable all-purpose guide. SIC are a nice upgrade but honestly not needed for most bass fishing.

Another excellent write up Cal, thanks for putting in the work. This rod has me intrigued as well, especially given the price.

The price is crazy and you're welcome... thank you for the note!

Also Cal, are these guides SIC or Alconite? The TW site reflects Alconite.
