Heads up- TW shows they're in stock but I just received an email saying they are backordered till 12/11(atleast the 7ft, can't confirm on the other lengths).

I agree, I have the 705cb glass and while it can throw the lighter stuff, it's not the best tool for the job. The 704cb or 704cb glass IS the best tool for the job. I've read posts from 2 highly respected guys on here on this exact subject- one prefers the 704cb, one prefers the 704cb glass. your ca...

Did I mention how good looking it is?
Seriously, how pretty would one of these be with a Sol mounted on it? Game over.
(I think I just talked myself into buying a Sol )

I'm pulling the trigger on one :D At a little over $100 for a Phenix S glass cranking rod with sic guides, why not right? My hesitation was whether or not I wanted a graphite rod or not. But I've come to a solution- get this AND get the Abu villian 7'1 medium moderate(vlc71-5) when it comes out. Unl...

These are the ones your referring to, right?

Funny you should post that, I'm contemplating pulling the trigger on one as well(the xg1 models). The price is killer(especially with black Friday sales), they're listed as having SIC guides, and not that it should matter, but those are some of the best looking glass rods I've ever seen. The x10's a...

Shot an email to G Loomis about a rod and the reply came from Shimano.com. What's up with that?

Hey dudes- been fishing the AR lures 65 shallow crank & the d50 mid crank exclusively lately and I'm gonna do a full, detailed write up in the review section next week(along with a few other new/overlooked cranks), just wanted to put it out there before black Friday- these cranks are the business. I...

+1. Really liking that reel seat(along with everything else). I'm suprised there isn't more of a buzz about it.
I'm gonna shoot em an email to confirm a December release.

if you stepped on someone's toes to hype up your rods that's on you. I don't think he stepped on anyone's toes, I think people here just get a little... Sensitive(pun intended :D ) when it comes to Dobyns rods. The OP asked a question about 2 specific rods and Vince had an experience recently with ...

Build that sucker on an old Harnell or Harington blank!

Not a fan of red but that clear red body is slick. Where would one get clear parts like that?

Just got one on order

Nice! I've been thinking about it tool. Can't understand the reasoning behind only making left hand models with the purple accents though, Sucks for me.
Whatcha gonna mount it on?

ALOT of people fish with power pro, so my opinion might not sit well with some- but personally... Ive noticed power pro has really gone down in quality. Once walmart got a hold of it, it just seems like it isn't the same anymore. I used to love it, now I wouldn't fish it if it was free. It might sou...

I'm tesing the topwater stuff right now. It's the stretchiest line ive ever used, it's almost elastic. Still not sure if I love it or hate though. It's....different.
