Weapons of BASS Destruction 2015 Edition

Post by JerryC » Thu Jan 22, 2015 8:15 am

I wanted to start this thread for everyone to show off their rod/reel combos for the 2015 season. I'm interested to see what some of you guys are hiding on us!

So what are your 2015 weapons?!

Ps: my pics will be posted shortly

Thought I’d break the ice and post before RISE monopolizes 3 page worth of combos…. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Please note, I have 1 rod left to buy before opening season (Swingfire) for that one rod, and picture purposes, I’ve used the EMTF.

Steez 103HLA - XX Flat Side Special
Steez 103HLA - XX Flat Side Special
Zillion J-Dream - XX Swingfire*
Zonda Rosso - XX Jerkbait Special
Alphas Type F - XX Diablo Spec R
T3 MX 1016HL - XX EMTF
SS SV 103HL - DX 743
SS SV 103SHL - DX 683
T3 MX 1016SHL - DX 745

Here are my starting 4 baitcasting setups. I only have 8 setups due to rod storage restrictions in my boat and usually only bring the 5 i know i need. As you can see i prefer quality over quantity. My spinning stuff is still pending. I'll be back but continue posting up your lineup. Enjoy!! :mrgreen:

Megabass Super Bandersnatch 7'MH w/ Megabass IS71 Hyper Lariat
Megabass The Griffon 6'8"M w/ Megabass Zonda 68
Megabass C40 Elseil 6'10" M w/Daiwa Steez EX100HL
Jackall Poison Adrena 6'10"MH w/ Megabass IS63 Lariat

i'm redoing some combos this year, other than the Steez AGS need a few new spinning rods.
I'm also going to grab the '15 Aldebaren and maybe the Met DC. All my spinning rods are in the UL-L power, so I'm also in business for another high end spin rod. The Medium AGS does look awfully nice.

This is going to be a great one to look through awesome collections guys, here is mine!

Only missing 1 reel for this 2015 lineup, the new Aldebaran 50HG. Should be here next month, that will sit on the NRX873C CRR for pitching plastics with fluorocarbon :D

Not the best picture but here is the arsenal. Can't wait for the new reel to come in, with new HG model's in Calcutta Conquest I think next year this lineup will be completely different :shock:

Image

G.Loomis NRX873C CRR/Shimano Aldebaran 50HG(Awaiting Shipment)
G.Loomis NRX895C JWR/Shimano Exsence DC
Megabass F8-79XX/Shimano Core 50Mg7
Megabass F4.5-68XX/Shimano Core 50Mg7
G.Loomis GLX894C JWR/Shimano Core 50Mg7
Shimano Crucial CRCC76MHB/Shimano Calcutta Conquest 100
Shimano Expride 7'1H/Shimano Chronarch D7
Shimano Expride 7'3XH/Shimano Chronarch D7
G.Loomis NRX852S JWR/Shimano Stella FI 3000XG
G.Loomis NRX802S JWR/Shimano Stella FE 1000

Ready to roll, just need to spool up some fluoro and braid on a few setups in the spring, going to be a fun year!

:lol: Other's have 10x this and we both know it. One combo at a time. You will see some of these same rods/reels next year I plan on buying 3 more reels and 4 more rods over the 2015 late season. I badly want a 2nd's in both the 873/895 NRX. Love these blanks very fun to fish with!

I gotta admit I'm a little jealous on this one. I see why the Chimera might of been feeling a bit neglected. They're all sweet, but that C40 Elseil is just sick. Really been jonesing for one. Does it fish as good as I imagine it does?
