Re: Wicked Sol/Alphas/Zonda Mod...
This is just one of the 3 Sols Brian upgraded for me. They had put in PX 68 R grears in them earlier is why we used the red accent instead of gold. These have had the drag and bearing upgraded also. Didn't upgrade the spools because I don't cast anything lighter than 1/4 oz. A year ago they were sto...

Re: Zillon Type R Handle for Fuego or Sol
Brian at Tackle Trap has an Alpha/Sol kit for the Star Drag. I decided to put the PX 68 R handle on them (3) instead of Zillion Type R handle. Sorry I can't post pictures, but one of my Sols in the ad for kit, so its on their web page.

Re: Dobyns 682C?
I'm also getting a 682c with the tradein. I have a 684cb that I use for 1/4 oz poppers, but I think I can get a little more distrance with 682c. Neither way I can use both.

Re: steez 103ha vs sol for casting 1/8oz-1/4oz
I don't want to hijack polar's post, but would any change in spools help sol with 12# mono line and 1/4 oz? I'm thinking about a Steel 103ha, also. I will enjoy the posts related to polar's questions, just add any comments on 12# mono.

Re: Pixy 101
I'm just an old country boy who loves his Daiwa reels. I have been reading this forum for several years and joined in a few months ago. Pixy 101 was the best class on pixys and alpas yet.

Re: What's with all the $500 rods?
I used to buy rods in the 100-200 range, but forums like this and the internet changed that. How I buy 250-350 range rods at the same prices, I love it. I can always wait until the next sale, or close out. Same with reels. But I still cannot aford the 500 rods, even at reduced prices.

Re: 6.8:1 gear for Alphas
I got the 6.8 grears form Tackle Trap for my 3 Sols and I thought I love them before, they are awnsome how. Not an expensive upgrade either. Big bang for the bucks.

Re: Zillon Type R Handle for Fuego or Sol
You guys are going to cost me too much money. I have 3 Sols and 10 Fuegos. I also have a bunch of Zillons and last year I decided to upgrade these instead of buying the new daiwas. Have upgraded bearings and drags already. I love the improvements and am glad I did not buy any new reels last year. I ...

Will a Zillion Type R handle and star drag fit a Fuego or Sol?
