Re: Calcutta Conquest handle recommendation

That's a bit too blingy for me. :lol:

Anyone have a link to Ray's? I searched on Alie and pulled up car door handles and road bike handlebars.

Calcutta Conquest handle recommendation

Anyone have recommendations for a cheap 90mm carbon handle to replace the stock 84mm on a Calcutta Conquest 100?

Re: Daiwa Lexa TWS 300 handle options

You could try the handle from the Tatula 300 which has thick double-paddles.

Re: asian portal fishing

I've placed two orders for reels in the past. Received both promptly. No complaints.

Lubing Hedgehog ZR bearings

I got a set of Hedgehog ZR spool bearings. One side of the bearing does not have a shield but it does have a bearing retainer. Do I simply drip oil on that side to lube it? https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fshop.r10s.jp%2Fhedgehog-studio%2Fcabinet%2Fab-1150zr-1030zr.jpg&f=1...

Re: Daiwa Lexa HD 300 vs 400

The Lexa 300 is a bit bigger than Daiwa's freshwater baitcasters. It's palmable but noticibly larger than a Tatula. A 300 is perfect for larger swimbaits and light saltwater fishing. A 400 would be too big for your purposes.

Re: 2019 Daiwa Admira Baitcaster

I can't imagine those knobs being thumb friendly. I like to rest my thumbs on a flat knob when reeling a baitcaster.

I would like to see the TWS on a smaller, Alphas sized frame.

I was thinking the same thing. Will a 2500 hold enough line and have enough drag for pike?

Thanks. Do you remember if it was 2 bearings per knob or just 1?
