Hopefully the pictures will work. I need to do a complete 2020 rod and reel post, but these are my two favorite spinning setups. 7'6 MML Steez rods paired with 4000 Exists LTs. I have owned a lot of high-end gear and these are my favorite purchases. I fish a for smallmouth in the Great Lakes a lot ...

I just picked up a Luvias LT 4000-CXH JDM and it's really nice. I have two NIB 15 Exist 3012H from last year that I have in my reel storage and just picked up through a trade with a good buddy a new with tags, in a sealed bag, Daiwa 76MML. Should I jump to a new Exist LT 4000 with it? He had three o...

Bet he was fishing a Scorpion!

The reel was clearly a Lews LFS. It also had red and black Winn flat paddle knobs. Maybe it was a prototype. The MLF rerun show is on the Outdoor Channel on Friday at 9.00 a.m. eastern. The reel is shown in the early part of the show.

Relax I was joking.

I got a Megabass Custom FX68 purple spool this week. Can anyone give me some info on this spool as far as performance in a TD-Z frame? I can't seem to find much info and I can't find any for sale to determine the worth of the spool. Thanks!

My 4000-CXH came today! WOW! What a nice reel. Shipped from Japan on 5/20 and got here today! THAT is fast!

Ordered a 4000 CXH JDM the other day. Does anyone else have this model? Is it JDM only? Thanks and best wishes on the water!

I agree with the SV105 reels. That old Alphas/Sol platform is timeless and quality too.

Hence why the SV103H and 103XS are amazing reels. OG Zillion frame with 34mm spool, aluminum side plates, brass gears, etc. Too bad they discontinued them after about two years.

What models are JDM vs. US? Are the 2500XH and 3000XH shallow spooled? I know the US versions of many LT reels have the "CXH" for the shallower spool. I see some on the JDM websites that say 3000S-XH or something of the like. Also, are the 2500 and 3000 the same body size with different spools with ...

I have the 73MHF. Phenomenal rods for the price. Because they're only sold by mom and pop shops not a lot of people talk about them but I'll try my best. I've only handled the 71MXF and it feels exactly like how it sounds. A light Texas Rig, Jig, Weightless plastic, maybe borderline bfs if you want...

Does anyone use these? How about the casting rods...particularly the 71MXF and the 73MHF. Looking for input on comparison to other models in the price range and other rods within the Daiwa lineup. Thanks!

SV103XS. Balances on my Xtasy 754C perfectly. Purple parts match too and some OG corks with a CF handle make it look great as well.

How are the spinning rods? How about the 6'10" finesse/dropshot rod?
