St.Croix Legend Xtreme
Anyone using these rods.Can't find a lot of info. on them but with the cost of these being what it is I guess that's understandable. In the spirit of "you get what you pay for" I've been looking for an ultra sensitive high-end jig rod and was wondering if these are on par or better than NRX rods in ...

Re: JDM tackle shop.
I wasn't aware they sold used rods. I went and found them.Thanks for that. I would like to pick up an EG Heracles Leopard for chatter bait fishing this spring. I really didn't want to pay for a new one.I've got about 7 pages of used and on-sale rods to look through now.Fingers crossed. I e mailed th...

JDM tackle shop.
Anyone have experience ordering from JDM Tackle Heaven? I messaged them on their site and was directed to their FB page.I messaged them there(Thursday) and haven't heard back. I wonder if they are closed or just extremely busy at the moment.

Re: Swimbait reel
I prefer a 300 sized reel myself, but there's an argument for 400 sized reels. Some of the hardcore guys prefer a 400 sized reel for a more consistent line pick up. If you're looking at the tranx, definitely look at the 5.8:1 as opposed to the 7.6:1. The 300/400 5.8 gets 30ipt (inch per turn) while...

Re: Swimbait reel
Nice toad Cal. So is that the 8.4 that is currently being offer at Tackletrap? If so, does that start to wear on you throwing a 5 oz bait all day? I think I'm going to go with the Train this time around and shoot the wad on the Z for my next combo. Would look pretty sweet on an LDC. Drakestar,do you...

Re: Swimbait reel
Thanks guys.I'm going to take a closer look at the Shrapnel and Ryoga.I've been using 2 Daiwa Catalina's I got from TT when they where blowing them out. I opted for the 4.9:1. I'm kicking myself for not getting the 7.1's :doh: They just aren't that efficient for moving and twitching baits, Cal,thank...

Swimbait reel
Not a lot of activity on this forum lately so I hope I can get some feedback. I'm looking for a good reel to throw DEPS 250's and other bigger glide baits. What reel and gear ration do you guys like ? Since I may not find or want to spend the coin on the Daiwa Z200HL or Z2020HL I'm leaning toward th...

Daiwa Z200HL
Anyone know where the best place to source a Daiwa Z200HL ? They are supposed to be for the American market but I don't see them available anywhere.
I can't even find the Z2020HL on any JP sites.

Re: DRT baits ?
Since my original posting I have been able to acquire a new Tiny Klash as well as a slightly used K9. Yes,I paid twice what they MSRP for but I've been looking and looking and that's actually a good price when you see what some are going for. They say the TK is one of the best cold water baits to ha...

Re: **Hand me a Lando Calrissian moment this afternoon**
HMMM. No clue on the questions. Glad it wasn't for one of your 175 BB Trouts as that would have broke my heart.haha
Anyway that's a nice gesture and in the spirit of giving for the Holidays. Hope you get/got a worthy recipient.

Re: DRT baits ?
Exactly what I was wondering.They don't appear on their site anywhere. Guys are selling them on e bay for $300-$400 ???? No way am I paying anything like that.Bad enough guys are getting double for used baits when and if one goes up for sale.

DRT baits ?
What would be my best chance of aquiering a DRT (Division Rebel Tackle) Klash 9 ? Do they do a lure drop like some of the domestic swimbait makers here? Do you need to keep checking the JDM tackle sites? I keep an eye out on SU's black market but they seem few and far between. Just like to know wher...
