Your Next Reel Purchase?
Re: Your Next Reel Purchase?
I’m seriously considering the CQ 101. I with it had X-ship like the new Calcutta. Anyone know if they plan on introducing x-ship or any of the upgrades they made to the Calcutta line to the Conquest line. I would hold off buying one if the upgrades are a real possibility.
Re: Your Next Reel Purchase?
i just got a core 51mg7 2 days ago for finesse so it's probably going to be a long while until i get another reel.
i do really want a chronarch 101d7 like hogsticker2 for heavy saltwater usage

if i can find the right deal i'm going to get a td-ito 103m to match the td-ito 2506c i just picked up. i'll also need 2 rods to pair up with these reels.

Re: Your Next Reel Purchase?
Pretty sure I just bought them. ITO monoblock XRL and a Shimano Vanquish c2000s. Both are very pleasing just now, especially the Vanquish!

I just bought an Abu LTX to throw panfish jigs at white bass and occasionally finesse fish for smallies.
Re: Your Next Reel Purchase?
Just picked up a Hardy Zane and put a 8wt bass line on it so I guess I'll be using that in the summer throwing poppers for largemouth and chasing river smallmouth with wooly buggers… OH "Real bass fishing" lol… it will hopefully be a Core 50 or Stella 2500. I really like the Stradic Ci4 3000 though. Wouldn't mind the new Certate either

Im not sure which model its gonna be, but am 100% sure its gonna be a Shimano.
Re: Your Next Reel Purchase?
One of the last reels I've upgraded was a curado 50E, I have two, one is stock and the other has the 7.1:1 gear ratio gears in it. I've gotten myself a new rod coming, its custom my first one thanks to you guys. That may be it for a while, but I would love to get me another jdm reel. I have a metanium but I'm going to wait for ICAST to see what comes out this year.
Re: Your Next Reel Purchase?
Just picked up a Steez 2500 to go on my Arron Marten Special. Also a NRX 893.
Re: Your Next Reel Purchase?
I just purchased 2 Shimano Scorpion's 1001 in mint condition but have not decided what rods to put them on.

Re: Your Next Reel Purchase?
Was not planning on any new reels this year. Until Tackle Trap had their sale on the Lexa so I just had to buy one.
