This has nothing to do with the reels performance, but WHAT THE EF! Another grey, silver, black reel :evil: Apparently mixing those colors is now better than just choosing one of the three. Throw a Scorpion 150 MGL tension knob cap on it with red lock nut... This is a complete fail in cosmetics! Mak...

Bandersnatch showed up today. I'm quite pleased. I'm coming from mostly Dobyns rods, Champs, Sierras, and Kadens. My only experience with Megabass and only other Megabass rod I own is the Triza Dragoon, so take my thoughts with that context. Haven't fished the rod yet. In hand it feels light and we...

I feel bad for people purchased BFS conquest ](*,) Why? Conquest BFS is a very capable all round light duty reel with similar brake. We want new Metanium Dc, new Posion Adrena and Antares. Shallow Spool is a scam. Hi Ray. Can you help me understand? These posts seem to contradict each other. Did yo...

I know it's sacrilege to some, but a Conquest DC would look amazing on one of those sticks.

I agree! Brand loyalty is brainwashing at a capital level. I use what works, what I like, and most importantly, what looks good. Currently have SLP knobs on my Scorpion MGL 150 and love it.

Looks so good, NOLRAMB. I have the Bandersnatch being delivered later this week. Very interested to try it out.

This won't directly answer your question either. All of my Shimano reels have developed a little buzz/geary sound or feel. Literally all of them. that includes SLX, Curado MGL 70, Aldebaren BFS(prior gen), Scorpion 150 MGL, Scorpion BFS, and Conquest BFS(prior gen). The Scorpion MGL 150 and Conquest...

Anyone have any experience with the bandersnatch? Looks like it could be a good all around rod. I absolutely love the green accents and overall look of these rods. From Japan Lure shop: "Destroyer's "Bandersnatch", which has taken the world by storm with power games using medium and heavy lures, ha...

Evergreen Orion Moongazer, 6'9mh - Might cost a few extra dollars to get it here, but it's incredibly light at 110 grams, blank is rolled with the latest and greatest T1100 Toray graphite, and it will do everything you need it to. Plus it's dead sexy :big grin: Thank you! I'm reading on this one.

Also looked at the P5 Destroyer Cyclone and Blade. We all love online shopping, but I wish I could put my hands on these! :crying: If the P5s are the right spec, they'll likely be lighter than the Legit Design options and a bit higher end too. Buy both then recommend one to me! Jk. Good luck on you...

A 4-power rod under 6'8" is going to be a tough find... good time to turn to some JDM specs.... Legit Design has a couple of candidates that might suit (click the blue text). There's a 6'4" rated to 3.5oz and a 6'-9" rated to 1 - both with slower tapers Thanks Cal! I've been checking out that Legit...

So I had a rod and reel stolen while pond hopping yesterday. Rod was a Dobyns Sierra 684C. I loved this rod for bank fishing due to the length and action. It was so versatile due to loading deeper than most fast action rods I've used. I'm thinking about trying something different. Looking for a shor...

Now this Scorpion I'm a fan of. Stole some Curado green parts and handle is from a Caius I believe. Reminds me of a Christmas themed reel. You ruined it! I had to go tweak colors again. Kidding. I ran it that way last year and liked it, but we are never satisfied. Snagged these knobs recently. They...
