Landed a 5lb rainbow, a 10lb carp and multiple suckers up to about 7lbs tbis week with my ET River Runner. All in current with 6lb Sunline Supernatural. This rod never ceases to impress me.

No Bass season here yet but putting the Curado 201i/72MH Compre combo to work!

Labour intensive but a good way to insert.
Frankly i dont usually do it and have no problems with a variety of brands.

Wow Frosty you hit triple digits with this thread. Welcome to TT! I see you are attempting to take up Thor's vacant throne. As aggravating as he was, he was twice as smart as you. You have chosen a tough row to hoe. Your initial "mommy" comment was the first shot fired, unless you are so insecure t...

I havent done much more than pitch jig and float combos for crappie on it with an Aldeberan, but i think that the Omen 610mlA might be the perfect tweener BFS rod.

Just so you know the Lexa was one of the reels that began feeling rough after a few trips. It didnt improve a whole lot after service.

I don't doubt for a minute that there will be an update, eventually to the 300 series Shimanos.
