This rod really has my attention for moving single hook baits. How well would this rod be tossing 3/8oz underspins, 3/8oz jackhammers and 1/2oz spinnerbaits? I’m stuck between this rod, the madbull and the valkyire VKC-71MH. What’s your guys thoughts and recommendations? Thanks

My choice would depend greatly on the details of those finesse plastics and jerk baits.

Mainly tossing Duo realis Rozante 63sp, finesse swimbaits, and neko rigs

For that price I would look at other brands personally. Since they did the redesign the rods have gotten heavier vs the old ultra mbx. I can’t speak about the new one much since I’ve only handled them in the store but the old 707H was a very solid and amazing rod. They run about $320ish but if you p...

By chance do these rods have micro guides. I was looking at getting the X-bites for my bottom contact and either the Madbull or dark sleeper for my 3/8 single hook moving baits running braid to leader on both rods

Has anybody tried the Steez HLC with deep Crankbaits and how well did it do?

UPS came and dropped off the above mentioned specimens. Some "wet the beak" shots more to follow when I get a chance to really get sit down a take some fun pictures of these yet again ridiculously fine samples of Megabass craftsmanship 8-) Some ferrule spigot shots on both rods with one of the 2 ti...

I like the idea of a more compact reel for bigger baits specially with the physical weight of the rods being lighter. The zillion I’m referring to is the current HD 1520. I didn’t think it had enough line capacity but I do see people using the Ryoga 1520 for big baits. The Tatula 300 did catch my ey...

Morning. Does anybody have any experience with the reel tossing baits up to the 6oz mark with it? I was really looking into getting a Z2020 black limited but the paint issue kind of scares me a little specially on a $450+ reel. The rod it’s going to go in is a LDC 8’ XH 3-8oz running 20lbs fluoro. B...

Has any body had the chance to use either the P5 F0st-66x mushizao siglett or the F2.5-611X Kasumi six eleven? I’m going to pair either of these rods with a Steez air 500XXH. This is going to be any all around bfs setup so I am take one rod to shore pound with tossing finesse plastics and jerkbaits....

I believe Sierra Slammers makes some small underspins

I'm the proud owner of three brand new Daiwa technology SV Boost, Hyperdrive reels. I have the US Zillion SV TW G, the Steez Limited SV TW, and the Steez A TW HLC. I've been fishing these three reels on various prototype Daiwa rods over the past few weeks, both on the lakes and in the ponds where I...

I’m looking to pick up a alphas Sv TW in the near future. By chance does anybody know the spool bearing sizes? That’s usually the first thing I upgrade on a reel before I use it.

Thanks

Good morning

By chance has anybody ordered from Japan lure shop during the pandemic to the United States? How long does it take to get reels purchased from them?

Thanks

I wouldn’t go with the 802 the extra length is a plus trying to cast smaller lures. I’ve used the NRX 852C JWR and it works extremely well for tossing duo rozante 63sp, ned rigs with 1/10oz heads.

I believe they change the Stella every 4 years. If they do a change it will be 2022
