Haven’t heard about any specs or models, but did hear they could be available at the end of April at the earliest.

Re: Megabass Orochi XX... What’s next for the USDM??
That’s a bummer, for sure. Not to scare you, but I see a trend toward shorter triggers on reel seats among component manufacturers. Both Fuji and American tackle have new reel seats available for builders that have shorter, or barely any, trigger. Whether production rod makers end up using them, tho...

Re: Megabass Orochi XX... What’s next for the USDM??
Stabbed into your finger?? Not to be rude but that sounds overly dramatic :). The Destoyers have the same seat, as do a lot of current and upcoming MB rods, I assume. You probably wouldn’t like the Fuji PTS seat, either. The trigger is shorter than on the good old ECS. I have short, fat fingers and ...

I’m also curious if anything else is in the works for 2018 from Megabass in the US.

With the classic coming up soon, I’m sure there will be an ad in a new issue of Bassmaster that someone will take a pic of for us to get a glimpse

Re: What up with the ugly rods?
Wildly colorful rods are bad marketing choices, in my opinion. I guess they want to appeal to a younger crowd? I’d take a simple, clean build over a bright green or white stick any day. The new 13 and Enigma rods are definitely some of the ugliest. No need to bring up where a rod is made, we are dis...

Re: Concept Z initial impressions. Did I expect too much?
To be honest, I’m a bit surprised at how defensive 13 Fishing is being about reviews and even the slightest criticism of this reel. The comments left on the Reel Test fella on YouTube seemed rude. The Reel Test didn’t even give it a bad review. To me, that’s a red flag, and not just concerning the C...

Re: Phenix Feather
TW has these in stock now. Look pretty decent.
Re: Ark Rods
I know TT has some they’re putting to the test. I’m curious about the Invoker, Viper, and Lancer series.

Hoping they keep the full cork with a cork or EVA foregrip.

Re: Megabass Orochi XX... What’s next for the USDM??
The XX rods were great, so an update has big shoes to fill! The Perfect Pitch is/was one of my favorite sticks of all-time, so hopefully there's something in the lineup to compete with it. Curious if the price point will stay the same as well. I know most people would prefer Megabass to stay in the ...

Re: I don't understand Enigma Rods
They were built fairly well for their price point and seemed very durable, but just about every other aspect of the rod wasn't at all good in my opinion. To each their own, he's obviously using them and catching fish. Hopefully the money or whatever was worth it.
