Re: dragon1 : Feedback Request Topic

5 stars! Van's communication was outstanding. Very fast shipping, actually took a while to open the rod it was packed so well. Great guy to do business with!

Re: Bates

I bought one ftom Tackle Express. Odd, there was no paperwork included, just the reel and a reel cover similar to the TW covers. Can't remember the last time I bought a reel that didn't have paperwork or oil, etc. Loved the way it palmed, felt smooth, but didn't care for the knobs. Also the handle s...

Re: Color on 21 Steez LTD SV TW

I have the '21 in 7:1 and the '22 version with 8:5.1 and the shallow spool, both RH. They are both silver and very much so in the sun. When shady, the handle side on the '21 maybe looks slightly darker, never noticed it before you mentioned it. But in normal light both are shiny silver. Neither have...

Re: Steez CT as a BFS reel

I have both, you'll love them. The Air has a bad rap, I think mine is very smooth.

Re: Your opinion on the Daiwa's Zero Adjuster

Non event for me. I'm on my 2nd season with my Steez CT and haven't had the need to even touch it.

Re: Tackle Loss Support Group

My tale of woe happened last summer. Was skipping piers with my prized Steez CT. Made a cast and my jig hit my trolling motor resulting in a birds nest an eagle would be proud of. Decided the best bet was to cut off the line and respool. It was choppy so I moved out from the piers and just as I star...

Re: Has anyone put a clear coat on their TD Ito?

A few years ago I had the same idea. I tried it on the left sideplate on a RH ito. It looked good, but it started peeling pretty quickly to where I eventually just rubbed the rest off. I'm not a painter and just sprayed it on with no prep work, so maybe that's why it peeled.

Re: Shattered my P3 Bearing Down

I've bought several Megabass rods thru Gary and unfortunately, broken a few. Between Gary and Megabass USA, the warranty process was not only painless, but actually enjoyable and I received replacements much faster than I would have expected. Phenomenal folks to deal with!

Re: Steez Rattling

If you remove the sideplate, use a small screwdriver to press the tabs against the frame. That should tighten it without having to glue it.

Re: Tackle Trap/Pike Road Reel Service

I'm very surprised reading this as my experiences with Bryan servicing one of my reels and answering questions about others and numerous transactions with Gary, have all been outstanding. I won't hesitate to do business with both in the hopefully near future. Dan
