I wouldn't let the no warranty bother you. I've been buying high end JDM reels for over 10 years and have never had a situation where I wished there was a warranty. Come to think of it, I've never used a warranty on a domestic reel either.

All the above.

I do a lot of jig fishing and am a big line watcher, watching for both hits on the fall and to get a sense for the hardness of the bottom. When the jig hits a hard bottom, the line will jump slightly before it goes slack, with a soft bottom it just sort of goes slack.

Item as described, extremely well packed and very fast shipping. Very smooth transaction. Jeff's a great guy. Dan

Custom K2 Phenix 715 barely inched ahead of my NRX 803. Both are awesome for my style of jig fishing.

ito 103m with Steez gears, ZPI bearings and handle and carbontex. Pure pitching machine.

Just bought a spool-exactly as described. Great guy!

I tried some 12# on a baitcaster for jig. Casts well, very sensitive. Didn't experience any line digs, but didn't use it very long. Extremely coily, which I cannot stand as I'm a line watcher. Took it off and went back to Samurai.

Purchased a rod-arrived as described. Well packed, very fast shipping-great transaction!

I've kinda gone full circle over the years from 6'6" to up to 8' ft and for a time most of my rods were 7'1". I mainly fish jigs and liked the longer length for hooksetting, but sometimes wondered if I was unintentionally working the jig differently with the longer rod. Last fall I picked up an NRX ...

Nice job Vann! That last one is a fatty!

Beautiful fish!

I do on all my jig and plastic's rods.

I've had the pleasure to meet Charles in person and conduct several positive transactions with him. Great guy, I hope to do business with him more in the future, Dan

Last year I was using braid pretty much exclusively with jigs but for some reason was having a hard time keeping fish hooked. Tried a couple flouro's but didn't like the way they lay on the spool. Picked up a spool of 14 lb clear Trilene XL and had probably the best fall I've had ever in terms of si...

I've used 30 lb red on a bc without digin problems. The last red spool I used bled really bad all over the reel so I switched to Samurai.
