Scam websites

So I have been looking around for a Megabass F2-60X and I ran across these two websites. They look about the same but have different names.

I bought the MLC-67L/BF and I ordered it from Shimreels. I have been using a CR721IMX for my BFS duties so I am really looking forward to getting a rod made for really light lures.

Re: Conquest 50 vs Megabass Zonda 68

The CQ50 is a much more refined and smoother reel than the Zonda. I sold my 3 Zonda\Alpha-ito as i prefer my Pixy :P I agree with everything you said about the CNQ50 and I even thought about selling the Zonda for those reasons but...........it is a Megabass so I have decided to keep it. Any idea wh...

Conquest 50 vs Megabass Zonda 68

I just ordered a Majorcraft MS-X Limited BFS Rod and I am curious what reel would throw 1/8oz hardbaits better. I have a Conquest 50 with Avail Spool and I recently bought a Zonda 68 that I have not used yet. In fact, I have never used a Daiwa baitcaster so the cast control system on the Megabass is...

Re: Paying duty fees

Local municipalities have been known to throw people in jail for overdue library books so I can just imagine what the Feds would do if you try to screw them out of customs fees. If it were me, I would not pay until they ask again.

Re: New Major Craft MS-X High End Rod Lineup

They look really nice, wish they would make a fast action bfs model Matt, what is regular fast? Is that like a more moderate taper? No. The regular action isn't even remotely close to a moderate taper. At least not the rods I've fished. Regular fast is pretty much a slightly slower typical fast imo...

Re: Archangel

What do you guys want to know? I got in the 8' and it meets all my expectations and as yall know I am a flipping rod whore! :lol: It is VERY well balanced with and without a reel on it. It honestly feels more like my 7'5" rods. attention to detail is impressive. the rod is immaculate! JDM styling w...

Re: Calcutta 12 (JDM version of Calcutta D) Vs Ocea Calcutta

The Ocea Calcutta 200HG was on my want list a while back. I think it's a great looking reel but it does hold less line than the regular Calcutta.

Re: A question about the notches in the spools of Power Pro

I agree with the spool laying flat is not the best way to put line on your spoil. I'll bet that they are not thinking about people spoiling it that way either. I will pass along your comments.

Thank you!

Re: BFS jigs favorites/best and where to get them

Keitech Mono Guard and Fine Guard jigs. Money. Expecially with a Little Spider on the back. I just order some of the 5/32 Keitech Fine Guards jigs and some 2" and 3" Little Spiders. I have used the 5/32 Keitechs before and I had 2 bites but no hook ups. I am hoping the hooks are not too small for L...

Re: TSI 321 and OC hybrid abec 7

I usually clean them whenever they get noisy, or start to see a loss in distance. This is on average every 3 months or so. Before using TSI I was replacing rusted bearings on a regular basis. Since using the 321 for the past year or two, I haven't had any rust anywhere on the reels including the an...

Re: TSI 321 and OC hybrid abec 7

I have posted on this topic a few times in the past. I use TSI 321 mainly for saltwater protection as my races kept rusting on my OS in the past with other oils. Have been using it for around 2 years on the same bearings with no rust anywhere and no loss in performance. The 321 is pretty thick so s...
