Lures, lines related stuff, in the house 98% of the time.

First time I'm hearing about JDM retailer who's willing to provide a return shipping label (or equivalent offer in this case). Would you mind sharing their name? Sounds like someone I'd like to do business with. On a related note, they may be able to simply reimburse you for the return shipping, as...

The new grip is wicked. With 3 fingers in front of the reel foot my pointer finger rests perfectly on the front metal pipe that acts as a resonator. Very clever design and fit. This is how I hold a spinning rod (and apparently how Imae must too) but your mileage may vary. Reel size is a personal pr...

That rod has been around for a long time, almost 20 years. I went with the Spin Cobra at the time. Had I known, I would have picked up a Spider Spin

On another forum this reel is being pimped HARD. The admin of the site is making the dubious claim that St. Croix designed the reel and owns the tooling, even though it's a Chinese OEM reel like everything else Banax. Those of us that know better were quick to point out that it's a Banax with a dif...

I guess steez a2 spring and inductor should work on HLC spool Just a quick follow up, I was casting a weightless O.S.P DoLive 4.5", probably ~ 1/4-5/16 oz. I am extremely happy with the mild spool. UPDATE ... Reel was sold. I should have asked your price but i was not driven to get you to sell it. ...

Anyone have a link to this unicorn spool?

I own the Harrier 6'10" and it's a beast but very sensitive tip.
