Beautiful combo. I like the upgrades to th SSSV

I just recently purchased another DX casting rod and after a week the cork began to split just under the winding check of the rear split grip handle. I called Dobyns to ask what I can do to stop it from splitting anymore. The pleasent woman ended up transfering the call directly to Gary. I explained...

Just recieved the DX743. My SuperSol has found a new home!

I am not sure if they still have them but St Croix Rods has a large supply at their factory store in park falls, wi (they do ship) I bought 15 last time i was there and they stated they had a ton in the back if i needed more to just give them a call. I don't exactly remember what i paid but i believ...

I cannot answer the is it better or what situation should it be used in. But one thing that i've questioned is, most permanent markers have a strong smell to them. I know it fades over time but how long and what effect could the smell have....

Wow. Id be curious to see follow up research to see what the chemical is (unless its a miriad of them) Its scary if the trend follows the plummeping numbers of fish being caught....

What is the difference between the sol and pixy nose piece? ps, if you want another project I have a sol frame and a few small internals I'd sale.. LH Visually the Sol nose piece is ported where the Pixy is not. The mounting of both plates is the same but the legs that extend twords the frames cros...

Whats p with the nose piece on your reel? I have a sol nose piece if you need it. It has a hairline crack in the bottom, but still works fine. PM me if u want it. It's glare from the camera. The nose piece is a new one from a pixy, it's going to require a bit of modification but I should be able to...

Ian is phenominal! Wise choice Jerry in sending it to him sorry to hear you are having issues with it.

*Progress Update* The needed parts showed up from Daiwa yesterday. The exterior components all came from the Pixy type R. Unfortunately the red nut retainer is the "large" and I need the "small" for the steez handle. Also the front plate will need to be modified to fit (I figured this would be the c...

You guys over at 13 are putting out some really spectacular stuff. I look forward to the release of the left handed concepts so I can jump on board with 13! Keep up the great work.

I wonder if the big fore grip is there to help balance it?

I'm guessing your looking for a lighter set of fast gears for a pixy? One other reel you might check would be the 6.8 Monoblock. I'm guessing they just used the pixy gears for it, and if they did make Al gears specifically for it, you would probably have to do unspeakable things to get them. Just a...

Thanks guys!

Could some one that has had one of the apart tell me what the main gear is made of.

Thank you in advance.
