Re: Do you mind Daiwa going full Made In Thailand?

Obviously Daiwa (and others) feel their product is simply a "run of the mill" "nothing special" product that can be made anywhere by any non-skilled worker... I'll take them at their word.

Fireline in general is a cult-classic in the Midwest for spinning reels and the Ultra 8 takes it to another level.
Do I need to start wearing a robe, Puka bead necklace and sandals?...

Re: Most fade-resistant hi-viz braid?

I was referring to the original Fireline flame green. I've had that line on several spinning reels for more years than I can remember without noticeable fading. I didn't like the tracer color pattern I tried... no problems with it, just didn't like it.

Re: How many rods/reels do you actually use

I usually start the season with 2 spinning and 2 casting outfits in the boat... by mid-season I have 3 spinning and 3 casting along.

Thanks for posting your experience with the Rerange 110, I've got one waiting to be fished. How deep do you think the Rerange got?
