Re: Looking for Recomendations for a JDM Bigbait rod

Megabass TS Destroyer King of Baccarat It's 7'8" and will handle those baits. TS78X Baccarat 7'8" Ex-Heavy Med-Fast 20-40lb 4-10oz TS78X+ King Of Baccarat 7'8" Ex-Heavy Med-Fast 16-40lb 3-15oz What is the major differences between these 2 rods? Is the King of Baccarat more Parabolic when it loads up?

Looking for Recomendations for a JDM Bigbait rod

Looking for your thoughts on a JDM big bait rod for a 4-8oz rating and under 8 feet. I am currently fishing a wild Lures - Prest 2 piece. This thing is a fun rod to fish due to its shortness and ability to fish tight to cover. But it has no tip action and feels akin to a Tuna rod. I'm pairing it up ...

Re: Daiwa rebillion rods?

How come they don't have the rod weights listed on the Daiwa site? I find that annoying. ](*,) The Daiwa Japan site does have own weights listed if you scroll near the bottom of the Rebellion page. 731MHFB model is listed at 120g, for reference. I would assume the JDM 7'3" MHF is identical to the U...

Re: New Megabass Destroyers

Wonder how hard it would be to get that F7.1/2-90X ICBM Lake Biwa Long Distance Edition shipped to the USA. Hope the handle is a breakaway :D

Re: Orochi XXX

Can anyone review the 6’5 oneten special xXx? I just got an 6’6 expride jerbait rod but it feels a bit Too soft imo. Thanks If you prefer a shorter, more moderate action with some back bone, the XXX OneTen is excellent. It has a nice deep flex to the blank but isn't too soft for a 110, it keeps fis...

Re: Anyone know what Deps lure this is?

Its still prototype stage. Its the Deps Evoke Zero. I'm looking forward to sourcing on as soon as they get produced, im interested in which front hook option Kenta went with, the ryugi Quad with a swivel, or the 2 Ryugi double hooks with the shrink wrap on it.

Re: Opinions on the Duo Realis 120SP?

I preferred the 100 size actually. The 120 SP is pretty good. I think the whole line of Duo Jerkbaits is a bit too loud. a silent model would be killer.

Re: Daiwa 14 Millionaire 100L Mag Brake system?

You would need the mag assembly from a doner reel. Possibly a doner side plate as well. Guys have converted the Alphas based jigging reels like the Arid Red Tune to Magforce Z using doner Alphas parts. I imagine it would be a similar process but is it worth it? Hard to Say if it is worth it, So far...

Daiwa 14 Millionaire 100L Mag Brake system?

Well. I got trigger happy, and bought myself a Daiwa 14 Millionaire 100L, not noticing that it has no magnetic braking system like the Older CV 103L. Aparentky it’s a saltwater jigging reel https://www.amazon.com/DAIWA-MILLIONAIRE-100L-Both-axes/dp/B00I977TY6 I didn’t pay the retail price luckily. T...

Re: Replacing Washers on 2018 Stradic ci4 4000

HPR Bearings on Ebay has them for sale for a reasonable price, fast shipping too. I prefer Tackletrap, but I don't see the drag stack for the size listed on there site.

There isn't much of a need for a video, if so just youtube it. its rather simple.

Daiwa 2506 Drag Ratchet

Hey gang, I’m having some trouble sourcing the part pictured. This is from a INF 2506 OE Emeraldas that I think is the 2009 model. I’ve noticed it’s also in the recent 2506 Em MS I bought from TW. So I know it’s a production piece, and in other reel models. Anyone know were I could get this part fro...
