Re: Evergreen Kaleido Spin Cobra Q7 vs MB Addermine?

The SE Asian reference may be a little misleading. Those fish are often caught in small pay-to-play ponds without current, structure etc so light tackle is no problem. If you search for fish caught on the 'Evergreen Temujin Spider' you will also see big fish caught on this rod (which I have). It ha...

Re: Evergreen Kaleido Spin Cobra Q7 vs MB Addermine?

Hello, I don't have experience with the Addermine but I own AM f3-610 dsg and the Spin Cobra Q7. The Evergreen Spin cobra is correctly rated as a ML and for what it's worth so is the AM. I have the Spin Cobra paired with a first gen. Steez spooled wth 6# tatsu I bought the rod thinking I would be a...

Re: Metanium mgl vs chronarch mgl thread

so is anyone actually using a Met MGL as a crankbait reel that can tell me if you like it and what speed you like. That we can upgrade them to brass is great!!!! Cranks for me are MOSTLY Lipless cranks and shallow divers like the Lure Jenson Speed trap. I don't throw DD22's often where I fish most ...

Re: Evergreen Kaleido Spin Cobra Q7 vs MB Addermine?

I've never fished the Addermine. I have been fishing the Temuijin Spin Cobra referenced in the second photo going on 12 years. If the Kaleido is more powerful than the base Spin Cobra, it's probably not the rod you're looking for. Sad but true. I want that 7ft length and on paper looks good but fro...

Evergreen Kaleido Spin Cobra Q7 vs MB Addermine?

Hi Guys Can anyone compare Evergreen Spin Cobra Q7 to Megabas Destroyer USA Addermine? I have the MB Addermin & want to get the EG Q7 but I DON'T want to buy a Medium or MH rod. Need a lighter action rod than the MB Addermine. I need help in figuring out how much back-bone/stiffness this rod has. It...

Re: Metanium mgl vs chronarch mgl thread

Only the drive gear is compatible. You must use the Met pinion. Still a great fix to the buzzing gear issue. Not True. Tackle Trap has supplied me with 8 sets of Curado K gears sets (Main gear & Pinion). Its compatible. The tackle trap changed the first two for me which where XG's & I got them to i...

Re: Metanium mgl vs chronarch mgl thread

I wish they just used brass in the met mgl because the weight savings is hardly worth it IMO. Admittedly I haven't had any issues yet, but brass gears should make it smoother and more durable. Has anyone had to replace their met gears? The new Curado K micromodule brass gears are compatible with Me...

Re: Rattle strap collar for jigs

So I found a seller on ebay that sells rattle straps and they are great quality. Double the price but if you are seeking quality then give him a try.
