Otherwise what's the odds of salt falling out of the hook hole in a sweet beaver on another rod and eating the frame of a steez limited?

Re: Daiwa Z2020SHL Issues
Sorry for taking so long. I was able to get the reel taken apart this morning and check on all the things you guys have told me to look at. The route of all this drama ended up being the pinion support bearing(the one under the CC knob). Thank you doomtrprz71 for sharing! The bearing was completely...

Re: Inshore reel for 7M Expire glass
I have a custom glass rod for throwing chatterbaits inshore for reds and trout, it had a steez a hlc but it was a bit wild in the wind for my tastes and it now has a jdm zillion HD and it's perfect. Personally I prefer glass for saltwater because it is much better for fighting a fish. I think a lot...

I had a similar issue with my Z2020, it ended up being a bad bearing in the upper pinion support

They are as close as I know to compare an x-ray blank to the C6O2 blank.

Re: Epitome vs Xray
I could see this being the case since one was production, and the other a custom. The only fair way to test this would be both blanks built the same way with the same components. If anything the test is in favor of the Epitome since it has rec guides, that's essentially the only difference is the g...

Epitome vs Xray
So I'll admit I didn't need the Epitome when edge launched the preorder last year but I did need a similar rod so I bit. After I got it I did fish it a couple times and thought it was a plain rod with a nice blank. Well hitting our local trophy PFA and fishing them head to head was interesting. I en...

Re: Scorpion DC vs SLX DC
Now I find myself in a pickle
The scorpion 21 I was looking at on ebay sold, my z2020h is going to fish again, and I found a gancraft tatula mango I forgot about buying off another TT member, looks like I need to be rod shopping

Re: Scorpion DC vs SLX DC
... if I buy an slx it'll be the jdm xt version the us version does have dc-4. Then really only the '17 Scorp DC is comparable because the '21 Scorp DC is a 150 sized reel. It all depends on your intended application and more importantly, preferred line at that point. So the 17 and the 21 scorpions...
