Re: BFS REEL ????

I have a KTF spool in a curado 50E that more than capable of that weight..

but I can tell you that the KTF spool in a 50E is effortless..

Re: TDZ / TDX is there a better platform

To me no, the TDZ platform is the best. I have a LIN 10, a Monoblock, IS 71, PX-Type R and love all of them. But notice I have one of each and really no desire to get another. I have 2 TDZ R+, an ITO, a Personal Order, and a A.O.I. in the TDZ frame. They are the best combination of comfort, casting...

Re: TDZ / TDX is there a better platform

I have only the TD-X 103P and the TD-Z 103 I believe. By my own admission I am a late bloomer but The tdx can throw a shad rap size 7 a good ways. its so smooth and i guess thats what gets me. I doesnt have the original spool but a Steez 103sha spool and a 100mm handle and Type R drag star with bear...

Re: This poor reel

He may be able to sell the spool..lol I am with you man, I dont understand how reels get beat up like this. I know some reels are prone to peeling chipping and stuff like that and those reels i do the best I can to cover after each use. I lay down conbo's rather that throw them down and in the boat ...

Re: TDZ / TDX is there a better platform

I feel bad seeing posts like this. I missed out on an SV103 barely and will probably never know now. Hope to find one eventually. I’m specifically speaking of TD-Z and TD-X’s. the zillion/ sx103xs platform is great don’t get me wrong but i guess i’m just now seeing the light on a real old school cl...

TDZ / TDX is there a better platform

After many years with my TD-Z and then my recent TD-X reel for cranking, I have discovered that I truly love the platform. I have a Fuego TD but it’s not as light or smoothe as either of the two TD’s. I’m a late bloomer to the platform , when i got my first TD-Z the upgrades and tuning were more tha...
