Re: Used F4-610XDTI Elseil price?

Basically, asking you guys to talk me into buying it or talk me out of buying it. :lol: I’m always hunting around for used rods even if I don’t need them. When I’m hunting Japan sites, I always need look for at least 100 below what I’d like to pay to account for shipping. I’ve seen a few of these e...

Re: The most UNDER rated..

Megabass xti evolution series. These are stuck between the vaulted xfti that have better re-sale value due to collector interest and newer C40s that look exotic. But, xti are awesome and there seems to be a ton of them floating around used or barely used that can be had cheap. It's not as easy as f...

Re: Who is the MOST over rated ?

My St.Croix 7MH LE is a perfect utility stick. Topwater, cranks, spinnerbaits, traps. I LOVE it. I've only had issues with the newer Destroyer line from Megabass. I purchased two '16 fausts, a FMJ and a '16 super destroyer. A pike broke a Faust tip boatside and a smalllie broke my FMJ in a similar ...

Re: More Parabolic Punch Rod

I posted about this rod in punching thread but deserves to be mentioned again here if you’re still looking or want another. New zbone 76 heavy MOD. Parabolic, ultra sensitive, and just addicting when you pick it up and starting flipping, punching what have you. Best rod I’ve ever used for those app...

Re: Poison adrena 2018?

I ordered this rod off of eBay today and I was curious to see where the rod connects for the 2 piece construction. I've read somewhere saying that most of the past Adrenas over 7' usually connect at the front of the reel seat(which is where I hope it is) but I'm slightly concerned about power and d...

Re: Alcance (zpi) rods

Priced in the $330-$360 range. They’re planning on competing with the XX, Adrena’s, and almost Jdm destroyer prices. They better be pretty good. Here’s a video of them fishing the rods and reels https://youtu.be/uNnJFFmd5Ow Good video. Few observations: the tackle seems highly functional; love the ...

Re: Full arsenal

Beautiful collection. This inspires me to organize and pair up my gear into some consistency. Not having a true ‘off season’ the past 15 yrs or so has resulted in a state of constant flux among my rods/reels and perpetual disorganization. Yours is a much better way to maintain gear.

Alcance (zpi) rods

I was rushed into getting the last spool I wanted from TT a bit earlier than planned. After, I went to the zpi website out of curiosity to see if custom parts had disappeared. They did. I found the full initial line up of rods. Based on price, seems like an intro end type series: https://zpi.jp/prod...

Re: Seditions and some others.

[quote="goldrod"]Each time I open this thread I have the same gratifying release of endorphins



Funny; I had the same thought prior to reading this comment. It’s envigorating to open this thread. This response in me may suggest some need for counselling; not RISE’s enthusiasm for tackle. :D
