Re: conquest 100 hg

Honestly it’s my favorite reel. I don’t think you will regret it if you get one.

Re: G-Loomis IMX Pro 852c JWR

I got one and if I’m being totally honest I regret buying it. And I only paid 220 for it. I have some orochis xx. And I feel like the imx doesn’t even come close in terms of performance. Not trying to bash Loomis because I have a conquest rod and love it. But after fishing the imx alongside the oroc...

Re: Ryoga 1016 to buy or not to buy

Love mine. Both are great reels. Use both with aftermarket spools (avail, zpi nrc001). That being said, I did not really NEED the Daiwa... You will manage with your Conquest. Thanks for the replies. I have two questions. If you had to pick one which one would it be and why. And also difference does...

Ryoga 1016 to buy or not to buy

I’ve been looking at this reel for a while. I’ve been wondering if I should get it. I already have a conquest 100 hg. Which I love. But the bait monkey won’t stop telling me to get this. If bought I will use this for chatterbaits 3/8 oz being the lightest. Should I give in or is it not really worth ...

Re: What's next for Shimano???

I just got a core that’s in great shape. It feels great. It actually feels better than my chronarch c14 but not better than my 13 met

Re: Conquest Skeptic

Re: New Dobyn's Series

Ordered a 755 Sunday night and if I receive it by Thursday, I’ll be able to fish it Friday...though I’m having a hard time figuring out what I’ll need it for fishing Lake Michigan for smallies (excuse to buy some 3/4oz & 1oz Dark Sleepers? Maybe so) Don’t think I’ve ever taken a casting rod over a ...

Re: Conquest Skeptic

Do you feel as if these are the best bass rods ever made. I bought a conquest a few months ago but I haven’t even held it yet. I’m waiting to get home for leave from ait.

Megabass destroyer daemos vs javelin

Hey guys this is my first time posting here. I’m trying to figure out which rod to get. This rod will be primarily for chatterbaits. I was wondering if I can get feedback on which one of these would be the best. My current chatter rod is an xx swingfire. My hook up ratio is about 70 percent and I’m ...
