Where did you buy yours?
I bought mine at Amazon -
Vessel Megadora Normal Screwdriver +1 x 75 900
I just looked - it’s available for $8, when I ordered mine I paid $18 or so.
Thanks.

Received yesterday the Vessel JIS screwdriver with a JAWSFIT tip to handle couple Daiwa's death screws, I had on my brand new Daiwa T3 SV TW reel I bought a month ago, and it worked like a dream! Could not unscrew using WIHA and WERA screwdrivers. The screws had a blue loctite on them. Kudos to Mis...

Don’t be afraid to fire up the ol soldering iron and put some heat on those death screws. Had to do that on one stubborn screw the other day even with Wera precisions.
Thanks for the tip. I'll give it a try.

Re: Was Braided Line a Game Changer for You?

I use white braid a lot. I just color the last 5-6' of the line with a black sharpie and it hasnt affected my catch rate with bottom contact baits. Interesting. I'll try that. Thanks. I kinda like the white braid, because it is definitely easier to see. But, I just didn't get as many bites with slo...

Re: Evergreen Little Max

I would find a strong treble hook in that size, and cut off one hook flush.

Re: What Other Species Have You Caught by Accident?

Why is it than when you hook into a big fish, there's usually a crowd of people start to gather about or some nosy fishermen from way beyond decides to come over. It could be just two boats on the entire lake and they will still come over. The same reason that I was suddenly on the hottest spot on t...

Re: What Other Species Have You Caught by Accident?

It used to be easy to compare when they had the website Tackleservice.com. The site had schematics and specs. for most Quantum reels. But when Rather bought Zebco, they dropped the website.
Bummer! Kinda like when Lowrance lost Linda Tripp as a service rep. Their service went straight downhill.
