Re: Which Luxxe Oltre is right for me?
Yes the 69MH is the rod you want. I already have many hours on the water with the 70H and while you can use it down to 1/4 ounce, 3/8 ounce and up to 1/2 is this rods absolute sweet spot.

Re: Scorpion DC7 vs Exsence DC
X2 spot on....Bootytrain wrote:I've got both and my scorpion DC definitely has the more aggressive braking. It's darn near unbacklashable. The drawback is that the distance really suffers. I've seen videos and read reports where these things cast super long but my particular reel isn't like that.

Re: Evergreen TKIC-DG69MH Stallion
Bassm1n also has the DG stallion... I have the cobra DG, so the the only reason Im commenting is because it shares the "Dense Graphite" blank technology with the DG stallion. Its 6'6" and I bought it for jerkbaits not knowing what the DG stood for. Had I known, i would have bot purchased it for this...

Re: Shimano Jackal poison Ultima - Anyone got one
How come there isn't any love for the new Steez SV103 ? I thought that SV spool in a Steez body would be great for 1/4 to 1/2oz stuff For me, I only have the MB variants and those only go on MB rods. All other rods get Shimano... at this point though, I honestly like my MB and Shimano reels equally...

Re: 70H Luxxe Oltre... Ultimate test. PASS! new pics added p
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=z5-Ujb8XTX8 The taper looks to be pretty fast from this video. Definitely think that titanium tip contributes a lot to it. I definitely think Ultima is better looking rod, but I am so intrigued by the unique sensitivity Oltre offers. in the video he set pretty good and...

Re: Shimano Jackal poison Ultima - Anyone got one
True. If you're looking for a combo thats overall lighter, then put the Met on it! If you're going to be fishing heavier lures with it, then go Antares...bassm1n wrote:Matches great with met or an antares.

Re: Shimano Jackal poison Ultima - Anyone got one
It is a blast to fish, in part because of the unique feel to it. At first I found it very similar to the 72H Ultima, but more time with it and the differences become obvious. Again, I wont say either is better than the other, just different. The actions are similar but the Ultima is slightly faster...

Re: Shimano Jackal poison Ultima - Anyone got one
I have the 72H and 70M. The 72H I use only for jigs/plastics, the 70M I use for shallow cranks. They are truly exceptional rods... what I have come to find, I love all the different brands (MB, EG, Jackal Poisons, especially the unknown Luxxe Oltre) for different reasons, they each bring different ...
