Re: P5 Hien

I picked one up a few months ago from the tackle trap. It is quickly becoming one of my favorite rods. I love the medium to fast action. I am using it for weightless t-rigs, light shakey head, light crankbaits and the oneten jr. I am using a Daiwa pX68 with it. Never tried fishing the 3" spark shad ...

Re: The Rounders Heavy Metal Club

Took the Ryoga 1520HL paired with an Orochi XXX Destruction 70 out this weekend and tied on a swimjig. Didn't catch anything, but it was enjoyable nonetheless. https://i.imgur.com/bAy1l9m.jpg?1 Beautiful setup. I am thinking about picking up the exact same set up for throwing the Magdraft. Mainly t...

Re: Megabass Crankbait Rod

Thanks for the feedback! Works been a nightmare and I've not had time to check in. I've heard the Otomat is great with lighter cranks, but I wonder if I would be better off with a dedicated rod which could handle everything. I feel like I'm almost there as far as next years tournament setup. I have...

Re: Daiwa KTF 30mm and 34mm Spool Availability

They have more 34mm neo and versatile finesse spools in stock if anyone else is looking. (All colors from what I can tell) What colors do you have exactly? I didn’t read the entire thread to refresh my mind Driving and can’t really I have a purple neo and purple versatile finesse on the way (althou...

Re: Legit Rod on the Way

It has been a few days but every chance I have had I've been out with this rod whether on the water or walking the bank. My initial impression of this rod was aesthetically, it was very pleasing to the eye. The detail in the rod was not lacking at all and it seemed very well put together. i had zer...

Re: Finesse spinning rods.. What's your first choice?

Do not hear much about them but I have been using a Daiwa BLX 6'10 light with a Daiwa certate lt. Have been really impressed with this rod. It is light and sensitive. Been thinking about picking up the medium light. I have another Daiwa certate lt looking for a home.

Re: Alphas/pixy spool options

Changed my mind and have decided to either keep the I'ze finesse or change the pinion and mag holder to use the ct sv 700s spool (with new spacers). Which one do you think could handle the 1/8 - 3/8 range the best (or even just under 1/8, but not over 3/8 total weight)? Thanks and sorry for changin...

Legit design wild side.

Looking for some input of these rods. Looking to pick up the WSC610M for throwing worms mainly. Anybody have one? Really would like to know how sensitive of a rod it is.
Thanks.

Re: Opinion: It may not be worth it

My buddy refused to buy high end gear. He said over and over it was a waste of money. Until he went crappie fishing with me and I caught fish after fish. He was catching nothing. That cheap ugly stick could not detect the light bite that day. He strated using one of my G loomis rods and was amazed. ...

Re: Need a rod for a new-2-me reel. Budget increased.

The most versatile rod I own is a Megabass F4-610K Black Elseil II Orochi XXX. Love this rod. I will throw just about anything with this rod. I have a Steez on it to. You can find it for under $300.
