Re: Limited Edition Shimano Reels

I think they are needed, it wouldn't hurt. Are you saying you wouldn't buy a limited '14 Conquest or Metanium? I know i won't be buying anymore Conquest unless they make a limited and missing out on a ZPride means i won't be owning a Metanium. I was done buying anymore Steez and Zillion, then they ...

Re: Shimano Exsence DC vs, Metanium DC

if you want to go for something that light, you mind as well get the brenious. Neither one of the reels you listed will do that hot for 1/8th oz

Re: Steez at TW ... Discontinued for sure ?

Let's see if Daiwa can make something new like Shimano has with Antares, Matanium, Curado and Aldebaran to name a few. Let's see what Daiwa can do for a $500+ bait caster....wonder what we will see! They should keep the steez as it is now but reduce the price to $300 That would be innovation. Or ju...

Re: Where are the shimanos?

The spool weight is with the SVS block right? Can't you swap that for a Avail 4 point block?

Re: Where are the shimanos?

You need to swap the handles and knob, or get another pair for your BFS XG limited. Beautiful stuff =D>

Re: Evers going JDM?

Already a part of Team Megabass... http://www.megabassusa.com/profile/edwin-evers Would like to see another pro use some JDM rods/reels on the tour to fill the void left w/Aaron Martens. He fished MB for a long time, but still used BP gears because of his sponsorship. How come all of these MB pros ...

Re: Steez Magdial slipping.

You will have to disassemble the side plate to gain access to the click leaf spring. Set the brake to MAX. Observe that the magnet notches are aligned at an angle. Remove the bearing retainer clip, take out the bearing, felt washer, black and gold washer, and then the phillips screw. The magnet can...

Re: Metanium 13 yumeya BFS spool

It would probably depend on the lure weight. But yeah the stock Metanium spool is freakin awesome. The casting range on it is ridiculous. It will cast 1/8th and up with ease. The BFS Spool is probably going to win in the distance department with lighter lures 1/4 and under? I use a lot of 3/16oz LC...

If you want a Shimano, I would still get a Metanium 13.

Re: Shimano or Daiwa JDM reels

BUT I have never seen a Steez Limited for sale on here...think about it :-k And even if you didn't like it, it would sell quick. Just a subtle nudge \:D/ A lot more people are willing to pay 300-400 dollars for a Metanium 13 than 500 dollars for a Steez limited... plus Steez limited is JDM only so ...
