Re: How do you like you’re aldebaran mgl 50?

I’ve been fishing an Alde MGL 30 for about a year now and it’s still as smooth today as it was when I bought it. I’ve caught plenty of fish on it, including a 12lb striper on it last week and it handled it fine. My MGL 30 is on my 6’5” medium cumulus with 12lb line, I use it for wacky rigs, small je...

Re: Megabass rods

I’ve owned two dozen or more MB rods (X4s, G1XX, 2019 Levante and 2017 destroyers US and JDM) and never had any issues with any of them. I keep mine in rod jackets and watch how I treat them. I notice a lot of people that I take fishing with me don’t understand or even know what high sticking is/doe...

Re: Rods with the 'it' Factor

I'll chime in on a few favorites of mine currently in production along with the reel in use... Steez 76MML-AGS/Exist LT 3000-CXH - This one of the best do it all spinning rods of all time, no doubt, just amazing for me. Steez 71MH-AGS - paired with a Steez CT presently and a joy for t-rigs, lighter...

Re: Alphas CT 70 in stock at Digitaka!

:lol: Negative on the thumbzilla! I wear a med/lrg glove and would say I have normal size hands. I was shocked at how small it was too but also at how much line it held. That pic is after a very long cast with a 3/8 casting plug, with 12lb line. As far as the level wind goes, I didn’t notice it nor ...

Re: Alphas CT 70 in stock at Digitaka!

Sure didn’t, I don’t know where my digital scale is... I did just notice that the paint does have some flake in it that adds just a little sparkle in the right light.

Re: Alphas CT 70 in stock at Digitaka!

Well, it came in today and got to spend about an hour and a half with it. I thought the finish was going to be a little more charcoal gray than black but it’s growing on me. There are no bearings under the handle knobs but I took care of that already... :lol: I casted with a 3/8 casting plug at the ...

Re: Alphas CT 70 in stock at Digitaka!

Spool looks to be same as in new Steez CT so performance should be very similar for lot less money I remember seeing in one of the Japanese videos say it was the same spool as the Steez CT. Mine cleared customs today, should be here today or tomorrow for sure! \:D/ Interested to see how this little...
