Can’t help ya with the luxxe unfortunately, but as for the jigga stick it’s 9-3/8” from where the cork meets just behind the trigger to the end of the butt cap. From right behind the trigger to the end it’s roughly 10”. Hope that helps. Sorry for the crappy pic just wanted to give you a visual. htt...

Re: must have megabass rods?

Phase 3 Bearing Down is the only Megabass rod model that I have brought twice.. It needs the correct reel mounted on it to unleash it potential, steez svtw seems to be the ticket, it is a must have for me.

Bantams are tough, a few scars just make them look cooler!

When they say “right” they mean thread direction? Not right hand?

Reel handle nut for td ito

Hello,
I am converting my straight handle on my TD to a swept handle, but I have been having a tough time finding the correct handle nut.
Purchased one but it is not threaded the correct direction and seems a little too big.
Anyone know a place to find a purple handle nut that will fit a td ito?

Re: High end JDM rod recommendations

Conquest 843c Shimano jdm blank with a US warranty.
Save a few bucks and buy one used here in the for sale section. I have a few poison G’s and conquests, they feel very similar.= Awesome. The full cork grip is very nice. Drop a conquest reel on it to check all the boxes. :D

Re: parts for a daiwa td z/ito

Correct, that cup washer just hides the crank shaft by recessing down into the drag star. The crank shaft is milled so that this washer stops at a certain point and then becomes handle seat. Then the handle sits against it and snugs to it when the handle nut is tightened. thank you, that is the one...

Re: parts for a daiwa td z/ito

You cant put a swept handle on a factory TDZ star, you will need to swap the star to a swept star as well. Yeah. You don't need washers for clearance between the straight drag star and swept handle. You need a swept drag star. Make sure you also acquire the appropriate handle collar for whichever d...
