Cool video and nice rig. Here at home I fish the St-Lawrence river and usually am dragging heavier weights on bottom in deep current but during the the majority of the season I'm up at an island lodge on a lake. I guess I need 2 setups.

yeah this forum is bad news financially. I want the freakin Glorious but don't think its got a tip I want. I dunno..I can't understand google translate. lol Hedgehog is looking good. I'm already scared, I know I'll bust the tip.

I wonder when they would be in. I leave to a remote island lodge for the season first week of May.

those tip breakages are what eliminated the hedgehog for me in my search...but I'm thinking they've been addressed...?

Yeah that's about exactly what I'm looking for.

I heard it mentioned a couple times but don't know anything about them or where you'd even get them from. lol

I love my Alderbarans and Mets. But whoooaaaa Stellas <3 <3 <3

6'7ML Dual Sniper + StellaFi next season

Need to try it on sand and gravel but would not where I can get snagged. I couldnt handle losing jigs, drop shot hooks and drop shot bait at one time. Plus the time to re rig afterwards...

In all seriousness, look for a used Pixy or Aldebaran or Curado 50E and find a ML fast rod.

Yeah its all the rage now... really expensive for quality stuff and 100$ spools and bearings etc..

Really sucks. They were amazing with the lifetime. Denied my first claim since changing their policy on my first time using a new compre and I broke it while casting... They used to send me a new rod when I slammed the tip in my car door... Now they find any reason to not honor it. Rod companies ar...

Disagree

picked this up today. Sebile. I like top end baits but the Rapala scatter cranks at 5/16 have been amazing for me. They aren't a tiny profile but they are very light. http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e48/mothercanuck/2671a48d-6268-44c5-abcb-e8ab5fb23b20.jpg http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e48/mot...
