Re: New Legend Tournament

I want to order a 7'10" spinning Mod-fast but the lure rating is throwing me off a bit.
3/8-5/8oz it a bit different, I use a lot of 1/4oz small keitech and wonder if it would load the rod correctly....

Re: Braid to fluorocarbon

Fwiw, I've went 30# braid to 25# copolymer for 15+ years now, and I've never had a break at the uni to uni knot I tie. Ive broken off at the lure, but never at the connection knot. To be fair, I never reel the knot onto the spool, though. Uni Knots are good, same with the ALbright and Alberto. But....

Re: Favorite Spinning Reel?

I love my Stella's but I do have a new Exsence A 4000 that should be here tomorrow.

Kistler Helium?

I have a Kistler Helium 7' spinning rod "NFC blank" that has the foam forgrip that has worn off, when a reel is attached it makes a very uncomfortable handle. This is the second time it has worn off, the first time I sent it back to Kistler and it was replaced, I do not want to send it back again ju...

Re: Stand Up Backpack

Osprey has one that does. https://www.osprey.com/us/en/product/tropos-TROPOSF19_550.html My 15 yo Osprey backpack is still going strong, so I like this rec - have you used the packs with integrated kickstand? Does it stand up in uneven surfaces like slightly sloping sand/grass etc? I haven't tried ...

Re: What's it gonna be? 22 Stella or 22 Exist

After a long love affair with Stella, I left her in 18 when the first Exist LT came out :lol: Stella always has been and should always be a spectacular reel of course, but after how good 18 Exist LT has been to me, plus Executive Service, I'm all in on new 22 Exist. I've seen the 22 released to Jap...

Re: What's it gonna be? 22 Stella or 22 Exist

It kinda bugs me that neither of them have the gold titanium lip, pretty sure it doesn't do much and the
