Re: Trout Starter Set
Everything you have there looks great and I don't think anyone here thinks that you've overdone it.

Re: Shimano Cardiff NX rods
I would imagine that it's made in China and while that's not very patriotic and all that stuff, the Expride is also made in China and they are very fine rods. In regards to the Cardiff NX, I would think that it's worth that price. I have owned two different model Shimano trout rods that were a littl...

Re: Shimano BFS oil
What was the alcohol for TSI 321? In my country I think I can't get pure enough medical alcohol, because in there we just can't buy too strong ethanol. But for laboratory use I think I could order for example this: https://www.laboratoriumdiscounter.nl/en/benzyl-alcohol-995-pure.html?gclid=CjwKCAiA...

Re: Shimano BFS oil
Thanks mate, will look into the TSI oil. Good to see there are other Aussie BFS tackle junkies out there! TSI 321 is a lubricant and TSI 320 is a solvent. You want the lubricant. I was using TSI 321 on worm gears and I thought that it was maybe a little bit too thin for that application so I starte...

If I lost everything, the Fenwick Aces Lineup is what I would be looking at.

Re: Conquest BFS 2023
I think it has to do with the laws in Japan. To my knowledge, Japanese manufacturers don't have to provide replacement parts for products as soon as it is discontinued. Here in the states, manufacturers are subject to the Magnuson-Moss Act which governs warranties of consumer products and bounds th...

Re: Conquest BFS 2023
This is why I haven't replaced my 14 CQ 200 with a newer model yet...this 4.8 brass MM went buzzy on me being the least oft used reel in my arsenal and with nothing over 1 oz. I even used my standard TDZ US Trail, old PT33SH reels, Zillions, Z2020/Z200, Millionaires, all harder and more often and w...

Re: Conquest BFS 2023
Feel free to pick my brain, these are my jam. Now for the difficult thing with old ABU reels, they stopped producing parts for pre-1997 models just a few years ago. The good news, millions of them were made so parts are still easy to get in terms of the 4000 to 6000 sizes. With the smaller reels, n...
