Second one on it's way after selling some IMX rods and now looking at the deep throat special. I must say that I am really impressed with shallow rod

Haven't even fished most of them

Well if you want you can send them my way,I would be more than happy to fish each one and give you my review of them.]

The F5-76X Nautilus is definitely on a lot of lists including mine. The Tackle Trap just got the last few brand new ones in stock out there...

I am waiting for my Phase III Nautilus ,order from tackle trap with confidence. They are great guys to deal with! Amazing customer service before during and after purchase.

I have added the phase III Nautilus and a Black Jungle Super Red Demon. But doubt i am done. Especially with the news of the upcoming release of the Evoluzion 30th anniversary limited legend works rods coming soon.

Both excellent additions. I can hardly wait for the 30th Anniversary rods to hit. I can picture the Mephisto paired up with a Monoblock Topaz already

I'm Dissapointed that the new Mephisto is not 6'9" like the original.

Really? I like the 7'2" C40 Mephisto and the new 30th Limited model is an incarnate of that rod. The 6'9" SB Mephisto is a great rod, I enjoy mine, but it's a completely different animal. So different that they shouldn't share the name in my opinion!

I love my 7'2 C40 Mephisto is always on deck.

I'll let you in on a secret. You will not find a better peacock bass rod than the original SB Mephisto. This is why I 'collect' them. The length and action are ideal for the giant prop baits I use. Paired with a Zillion HLC and 70 lb samurai braid (preferably yellow) and you have an outfit that can tackle anything a peacock will throw at you.

I agree in that the new rod shouldn't even be called a Mephisto. If Yuki made a throwback Mephisto to the original's specs I'd be all over it.

Redlinerobert, where have you fished peacock bass? If in South America would you mind if i message you?

Rio Negro, feel free.

all of them! lol
