This picture accidentally came out cool looking this afternoon while on the stream.

Not sure on a national level but possibly this shop is just not able to get them any longer/ doesn’t sell enough to invest the overhead required to keep them available. In the end if you enjoy the reel and it fits your purpose is all that should matter.

Sunline Small Game PE is probably my favorite braid. Super strong and durable gotten many spoons I would have lost back.

Nice specs, similar to what I’m fishing and its super well rounded.

About 2 weeks from day of order, EMS would have been faster.

Should be great, I fish as low as 0.8g and up to 4g so far. My rod is rated from 1-7g so going to give it a work out.

Well... not really picked up but just arrived from Japan. The 2 on the left are a Smith Edge Diamond 3g spoon and the next is a Daiwa Crusader 4g spoon. These are a few test spoons from Smith that I wanted to check out. Three of them are 5g spoons with the last one 6.5g. Smith also makes these in 3 ...

Looks delicious.

Something to consider is what kind of line you are using. I know with my TenRyu Rayz Spectra the switch from even high end nylons to high end PE really made the rod shine and it easily casts 0.8g spoons without effort. Something I couldn’t do with the Nylon.

Running an ‘18 Exist Finese Custom LT1000 and man are these things ultra smooth.

Thanks everyone! I have respooled it with Sunline Saltist PE .04 and this thing is a casting machine with a much stronger bite.

Daiwa offers several telescopic models out of Japan.

Anyone know where to source the FC Sniper BMS 2# Line? Looking at diameter even the 2# looks more like a 6# Mono diameter my 3# Nylon was .128mm.

Congrats all around...
