Re: Anyone tried DIY spools? $29-$40 BFS spools!

Agree. It's the rotational moment of inertia which matters.

Re: New Shimano Rods (Poison Ultima & Glorious)

I was only able to make few cast in a neighborhood pond. The action is definitely fast. It is still able to load 1/16oz jig with 2"plastic well. This one is the best bfs rod i have ever touched. Will report more after catching some fIsh.

Re: Show off your BFS Casting Reels

The KRX BFS is the 6'9" version. I like it more than Major Craft Volkey BFS. It has slightly softer tip than the Volkey. Build quality is first class and it balances perfectly with a 5~6oz reel.

Re: Show off your BFS Casting Reels

Going old school. Abu 2500C with mods including Avail spool, 2 bearing cog wheel and level winder. It can throw 1/20oz jig head with 2.5" baby shad in par with stock pixy 68, but much easier (very hard to backlash).
