Alright so if I'm going to go with the Orochi XX its at the $300 price range. Am I missing better option at this price point or is this pretty close to the best $300 rod. Usually spend $200-$250 on a rod so this would be a step up and you guys have more knowledge combined than anywhere else so just ...

Alright so if i were to consider the Orochi XX, still curious what the diablo type R is like? whats its strengths and such?

Looking into the megabass levante, and the evergreen combat stick. Curious to see what your thoughts are on these two rods. Also anyone with a diablo spec R, curious what you use it for and what it excels at.

Thanks

Just experienced this myself, Awesome Awesome place!!

Bronzefly you are making this too easy
And it's in my shopping cart
Thanks

So additional question, I've ordered the drag stack and new Boca orange seals for it. However one of the clips on the handle nut cover snapped off on my Alphas 103, is there a reasonably priced handle assembly I can buy for my Alphas 103 or can i get that handle nut cover for it somewhere?

Awesome Thanks!

Would this increase the max drag power?
Thanks

Looking to upgrade the drag on my Liberto Pixy, curious if I can make the drag rated to more lbs and if so where should I start looking?

I appreciate your post, I'll probably get in touch when my time of purchase gets a little closer

So for the last year and a half I've been fishing from a highly modified 12' deep V that I bought. However a great deal through some friends just made itself available to me on a 1997 Crestliner Fishhawk 1750 SC. So I jumped on it, while it already has a trolling motor and graphs they need replaced....

got a quote for approximately $200 - $350 to fix it....so new motor guide x3 is on its way....

I have a Motor Guide pro series 45lb. thrust 12v trolling motor. however recently I've lost power on settings 1,2, & 4. 3 works but only if i have the motor facing so it'll reverse the boat and 5 always work. From what I've read it seems like speed coils are bad? any opinions or information on this?...

Nice, if I was gonna be in the area this summer I'd say we should hit one of those waterways up, but within a week of getting home after graduation I'll be moving to Cortland, NY for my job. Guess its time to find new waters, never knew the spillway from crooked creek had smallies though

Mags00, I see you're from Greensburg, ever fish the loyalhanna river for smallies, some fun spots in Latrobe
