Re: Conquest 782s

I was wrong on the price, he wants $400 but that is still a good deal so I got it.
Rod should be here by the end of next week.

Still has the tags on it...

Re: The Highest Example – The Edge Epitome Rods from Gary Loomis

The Casting looks awesome, I'm just not to sure about the spinning rod handle myself.

Re: Conquest 782s

Is your Mag2 with the NFC blank?

Right now I'm using a Mag2 7' medium light NFC blank and its very sensitive, I just hate the reel seat and guides.

Re: Confirmed new Nrx coming out !!

Ok, I have read all I can find. What rod should I get for Ned rigs. I have a 902S and the Steez 7 6 MML. It would be between 821S and the 901S. Sensitivity and fun factors are most important. ' I have both of these rods and a 7’6 Steez. I would go with the 821 for all Neds under 1/4 oz. the 7’6 Ste...

Re: Conquest 782s

I have the 782c and it's moved to the top of my rotation. Use if for topwater (up to 1/2oz), jerkbaits, and cranks (DT-6) as well as Ned rigs (tip is prolly too soft). Alderbaran 50 with 10# braid/leader. Unfortunate part- my wife has also decided this is her favorite combo. :) I wonder if the 782s...

Re: Official ICAST 2022 Post...

I really enjoy Shimano's braking system, set it and forget it. I wish that were true for me. I fish a lot of baits where I want light brakes for a long cast one cast and then the very next cast I need heavier braking because I’m skipping that bait into a tight cover area. For my Daiwas, it’s as eas...

Re: Official ICAST 2022 Post...

IMO, a $350-$400 USDM Shimano or Daiwa will more than compete with this "$500" offering from Lew's. I would personally look for a clean used Steez or OG Zillion in the $250-$350 range all day. I do wish Shimano would step up their game in the braking system world. I really enjoy Shimano's braking s...

$500 for a Lew's? Cray-cray.

Shimano and Daiwa now have $700-$900 reels. Inflation is a b!tch.
Yeah, but Lew's reels suck :big grin:

Re: Varivas or ygk

YGK upgrade x8 is my favorite.

Seaguar Smackdown, Pline TCB8, PP SS V2 and Sufix 131/832 are all decent braids IMO.

I have only tried Varivas high grade x4 and it was a very nice line, I want to try more but its hard to obtain.

Re: New Legend Tournament

I don’t know if anybody else has noticed or if this is a single issue misprint but the new Legend Tournament spinning “Power Versatile” has “versatile” spelled as “versitile” on the handle… Maybe it’s a misprint and worth more? Should I add to my collection? 8-) I just ordered this rod :big grin:
