Re: Gloomis rod above NRX????!!!!!

There was some confidential and proprietary information shared in the thread without authorization and so the thread was removed.

I am assuming the Metanium/Chronarch have the same size teeth as the Curado? Or are there 3 different sizes of Micro Module ge...

Re: Tatula 103 SV - 2017

Distance casting or real fishing situations? He threw a casting plug and a jerkbait. Pointed out how big the inductor on the SV was compared to the R. Makes sense This is the same guy I told you cast the Metanium MGL JDM like 170ft. His videos kept me from buying a Tatula SV. They are about like an...

Funny, no mention on here of the 70.

Re: Tatula 103 SV - 2017

Start at 4 inside and 6 outside work your way down. Dont overfill the spool and make sure the brake pipe is not overly oiled.
