The only that would make it better would be split grip, winding checks and Titanium framed SICs. Trouble with the Weibe is, in order to obtain that lower seated feel, the blank runs through the cork off center. Look back at Scott's profile photo and you'll see what I mean. The blank aligns with the...

Hmmm... now that you mention it Matt, I see it. Very subtle differences. Thanks. BassTackleDepot, where I first saw the bait, lists the BabyBass with the WakeJr so I just naturally assumed they were the same all around.

They're the same bait LR ... just the paint scheme differs.

I thought you already had to SWMBO?

sure sure... not trusting me again... all I have to say is... "Quad Twister" ..

So I've decided that If I want to use my Conquest 201DC for 1/2 oz cranks, I will. OMIGOD, the 201DC is a great crankbait reel! I used to use mine for spinnerbaits too! If I want to use my old upgraded, and much loved, Abu 6500s for swimbaits, I will. Don't have that reel so can't comment... *sigh*...

YES!

Question for Cal on this one: Is it safe to throw heavy 3+ oz baits with the DC without damaging it as far as gears and circuit? Might be a question you want to pose to Bantam1 in the Shimano Product Support forum. I use my reels with little regard to what others recommend ;) Having said that, I us...

great.. now everyone is going to want a free handle

You realize the bolts holding the knobs in are countersunk, right?

Awesome looking reel.. I'm guessing that the 3000 is too big for the MB Marten's rod.... How about that bronze back SMR822s GLX for ripping those smaller jerk baits like the Vision 95 of X80... just buy it already and figure out a rod later ;) Congrats Matrix.. that's an awfully nice gift... happy ...
