Re: Best Megabass Topwater rods?
What topwater lures do you plan on throwing? And what weight range?

Re: Phenix K2 Torzite Casting Rod 7'1" Med Lt
I have a custom built on a K2 blank and love it. Anyone have experience with the production rods? I'm looking at the 7'1" med light for 1/8 oz to 3/8 oz. Ill be using 7 lb sniper, and a Steez CT SV. I've read the TT review of this rod and it seems like it would be what I'm looking for. I have a few...

Glass tipped rods?
Im looking at a few glass tipped rods (the poison glorious xc series and the poison glorious 166l-g). Im really really hesitant to pull the trigger though because of my experiences with glass rods. The only glass rods ive used have been pretty sloppy feeling and lacked any sort of crispness. Does an...

Re: JDM Shimano vs USDM Gloomis Comparisons
Based on like 1 video I saw, the *new* Poison Adrena is more sensitive than the Poison Glorious and is closer to GLX level, possibly approaching NRX. As far as build quality goes, I've read quite a few complaints about the GLX and even NRX. No such complaints about the new PA. Can you post a link? ...

Re: JDM Shimano vs USDM Gloomis Comparisons
I dont think the poison adrena and poison glorious rods have a direct comparison in the Loomis lineup. Mostly because they have a different blank construction than the Loomis rods (except the conquest),they have the "high power x" construction. About the conquest/poison Ultima comparison: I would lo...

Re: Best action for a jig rod
I think it may be a bit of personal preference. I prefer a more mod fast taper for almost everything including jigs and Texas rigs.

Re: Bone Stock Reels
My Shimano bfs reels are stock. Eventually Ill get an avail spool for by Aldebaran bfs but for use on bass lures the stock spool and spool is just fine.

Re: F5-75X7 Extreme Mission
3/8 - 1/2 is the sweet spot. At 3/4 is where I start thinking. At 1oz I find it a little scary whip casting since the X7EM has a soft tip. Plenty of backbone power though. It's an excellent moderate cover weightless senko rod too IMO. Totally unrelated but relevant I was putting away my shoes and I...

Re: Antares A Casting Reel
Anyone using this reel for weightless plastics? Anyone have it paired on the new PA rods? I’m looking for performance casting 12-14 test floro How light can’t it go and do you feel that the line capacity is adequate? Hello, Friend! I used this reel for a 2019 season with Poison Adrena 1610M-2 rod, ...

Re: JDM bottom contact rod
Take a look at the steez racing design "jigga stick" or the "hustler". Its hard to beat the racing designs, in my opinion they are the best rods on the market right now
