Re: Team Lews ELITE-Ti SLP looks better than anything from Daiwa/Shimano

Looks sharp but those knobs though. Also I have the turd gen Revo with the Doyo Coba treatment. It has an all aluminum body construction to it can be plated in that chrome like finish. I also have a BPS JM wide spool with that same finish. It prone to tarnishing but feels super high end and classy ...

Re: Project T 22 #6: another Tatula

Does anyone know where the 80 and 70 have their bearings located? It’s the same amount (7 + RB) as the Alphas so I’m wondering if they actually do have that double supported pinion. I personally wouldn’t mind the long shaft, double support is the deal breaker with Tatulas. For the 70, Daiwa’s websi...

I see Daiwa is now a supporting sponsor for the Bassmaster tournament trail. I am thinking the new Tatula 80 and SV 70 will be Bassmaster Classic releases coming up in early March.
I hope so, I’d love to grab the 80 and I’d prefer to not wait for iCast

Re: Curado 150 MGL

I called them up and I'm getting a replacement sent. Hopefully, it arrives soon! If you do not mind, where did you get it from? Seems like they had great customer service for an issue that wasn't technically even their own fault... Maybe Tackle Warehouse? I got a 150 MGL from there, I noticed the o...

Re: Project T 22 #6: another Tatula

SLX. Fuego CTs are big and nasty feeling compared to the SLX. Okay, I was just curious. I have an SLX and it feels very smooth for $99, I just hate the big blue “slx” on the side. They should make all the slx like the new slx dc xt. But I’ve never seen a fuego in person, they seem so popular I coul...

Keep the Current Fuego CT but drop the price. It's not a $109 reel. It's just not. It should mrsp for $75.
While I don’t disagree, I’m just curious what’s out there that you do think is worth $109, or even $99, that currently retails for that price?

Re: Curado 150 MGL

I got mine a few months back, but my experience was exactly the opposite, very smooth. Maybe you got a lemon

I ordered it from aliexpress.. took about 3.5 weeks I think?
Ah that’s not too bad. Ordering from AliExpress scares me, like ordering from eBay 15 years ago

Re: New curado 150 mgl

I just took my Curado 150 MGL out for the first time yesterday, it’s awesome. Super smooth and palms really well. But it’s $200 and a Zillion is $350, so I wouldn’t really consider them comparable.

I don't know why nobody ever mentions these, but the Steez Cover Chatter chatterbaits are amazing.
Where do you get them from?
