Re: Steez Limited 105 paint ?

I've never owned one. More like refused to buy one, but from the countless pics I've seen, it appears the top coat is what peels. So if the new top coats properties don't jive with the old, it could potentially lead to worse problems. I would consult a professional coatings paint store manager or s...

Re: Seditions and some others.

How do you like the kahen spools. I missed out on the last run but got a bantam and metanium Neo spool on the way. If you’ve tried the zpi nrcs just wondering what you think about these in comparison.
Thanks

Steez Limited 105 paint ?

I recently grabbed a Steez Limited and it’s in used condition and has the normal paint issues with these reels. I also got brand new side plates and frame. My question is before I rebuild this reel into the new body is it possible to clear coat it to keep the new pieces looking good without affectin...

Re: karil ( over sea orders)

I ordered from them Friday and got my package Monday. If you are trying to add something to your cart and it doesn’t show up in your cart that means it’s sold out. If you have items in your cart and can’t check out that’s a different issue. I use google translate and open it. Add my items, go to car...

Re: Completed projects

Good work! Don’t you wish companies would use the same colors for anodizing? It’s also amazing how much we’re willing to spend on making our reels more blinged out. But that’s a lot of the enjoyment of fishing these beauties when they’re done.

Re: Who is the MOST over rated ?

My St.Croix 7MH LE is a perfect utility stick. Topwater, cranks, spinnerbaits, traps. I LOVE it. I've only had issues with the newer Destroyer line from Megabass. I purchased two '16 fausts, a FMJ and a '16 super destroyer. A pike broke a Faust tip boatside and a smalllie broke my FMJ in a similar ...

Re: Alcance (zpi) rods

Priced in the $330-$360 range. They’re planning on competing with the XX, Adrena’s, and almost Jdm destroyer prices. They better be pretty good. Here’s a video of them fishing the rods and reels https://youtu.be/uNnJFFmd5Ow

Starting a new thread, but wanted to do a quick post in here to mention that I got to spend a few days on the water with the Hooligan, Cristobal Ltd. and my favorite big bait stick...The Lion Heart. Also got to add hours onto other favorite sticks in the collection. Hooligan is a very nice stick. L...
