That is a beautiful! 852 is my favorite jerkbait rod too, casting and spinning. What reel is that on there?

The reel is a Shimano Vanquish c3000hg, super light weight and smooth.

Looks excellent.

Is there any options for a shallow spool?
Looks like HH is out of there shallow spool...

I won't ever buy from aliexpress, everything is all knock-off.

Just wasting your money and helping them make more fake crap....JMHO

LC65 are my go to for browns, if you guys like the 65 try the 65 deep diver also, it also amazing..

Think I might order one, do they cast amazing, say compared to the metanium 13? It is really tough to say as far as casting. I have the same bearings in both my Conquest and '13 Met, but the Met has a Microcast Shallow Spool. With the factory spools, I would say the Conquest is a better caster. As ...

8.6 is a bit much now days.
My limit is 7.5oz reel and at that weight is balances a rod just about right.

I'm keeping my carbon fiber handle on my CQ, I just ordered some HH HD bearings, Champagne Gold handle nut plate and screw from the tackletrap.

Have you guys noticed that laminated series are not nearly as durable...
I purchased a few bags and all the laminated ones broke off with ease of just casting a few times.

I won't be buying them any more.

Today at the River.

Perfect, thanks and sweet collection.

Man now I don't know what I like better LOL, the longer handle feels so much better. Maybe it just needs a gold handle nut retainer or gold nut LOL. what color matches hedgehog parts on the CQ? Gold or champagne gold? https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1663/25680626644_57e8d2dff7_c.jpg https://farm2.sta...
