I threw the bellowsgill 3.8 alot this spring and will continue . 1/8oz free rig and jika was what I settled on. These things have a lot more weight than you would expect.

Last year I had settled on ZPI F-0 Pro Grease Medium for all gears and ZPI F-0 Pro Grease Soft for sliding/moving metal parts/frame bearings/worm gear. After some research, I now use Dupont Krytox GPL 225 for gears rather than ZPI Medium, which is a significant upgrade over an excellent grease. The...

I've deep dived many-a-posts and can't find the answer...is the Gen 2 Orochi XX Diablo Spec R faster or slower in action to the Gen 1? Are they similar in power?

if you order something, and it comes broken, it's on the seller....never the buyer.

Anybody have one yet? Would appreciate weight of rod + balance point if possible.

Assuming the above is correct, would the hyperdrive gear model make even a same-gear ratio pinion and main gear from the 2 different reels incompatible? Good question. Not sure who will be the guinea pig. The main gears i found identical had the same dimensions in the meter with each other between ...

I havent compared the steez svtw gears to the zillion G yet. Just the steez a/morethan 7x to the zillion G.

Just got info from the Tackle Trap, Zillion Sv1000 gears will NOT be compatible in the Steez A. I finally ordered a 7.1 JDM Zillion and noticed my Steez had a faint ticking when reeling. Broke her down and re greased and now it is gone. I asked about Zillion gears thinking the brass might fix the i...

Not overly impressed. Was hoping for more full grip in like a 864 or 874 MBR instead of the 1980s 6''6 and 7'0 options . full grip lengths are pretty pedestrian and uninspiring. Only casting models I'm interested in are the 844 MBC and 873 CR . I'm sure the blanks are electric but was hoping for mor...

I guess I might be the only one who has an issue with the new Zillion. I love everything about the reel except for the mag dial location. When I cast or fight a fish my index finger usually ends up right on top of the dial. Not only is it uncomfortable but I have felt and heard the dial move. The p...

been able to have mine on the water for a couple months now. I don't see any difference skipping between this and the steez sv1016 g1 spool. have skipped weightless senkos, bladed jigs, spinnerbaits and it's effortless to skip 10-15 yards. Biggest difference so far is on a long cast. SV boost feels ...

Are brass gears only in the XH model? In XH it's ZYC Alloy / C6191 Marine Bronze / Aluminium Bronze : http://www.tackletour.net/viewtopic.php?f=47&t=80004&start=120 In SH it's aluminium gears: http://www.tackletour.net/viewtopic.php?f=47&t=80004&start=165 FYI...The XH gears require your reel sent t...

i demand to know if this spool fits in an OG zillion. I will be at the head of the picket line!
