Re: 21' Calcutta Conquest 100 vs 200

I really wish they had a 101 here in the states. What are you guys using the 201 for? -21 200 DC: Northern pike with 50-65lb braid. Hi Marduk, Can I check how much 50lb braid can you get into the DC200? Can you fit 100yds of 50lb in there? Dunno sure how much, but just tested to spool Chronarch 200...

764C is 387g
😳 Are you sure? That's only 60-70 more grams of power than the 683ml.
Oh yes and quess what!? 763C is 398g !

Feather 71 MH is 405g. Very nice blank and MUCH cheaper than K2.

No I sure don't... just basing it off the spreadsheet downloaded from Batson on the new blanks.... which includes CCS numbers
Yep, found it. It's listed under the rod building forum under the RX10 thread. It's also in the RX10 thread on BBC.
CCS 272g is what in RDA? :-k

Re: Steez CT SV strength

I tried Steez CT with steelhead (seatrout) fishing. Line capasity is too low. With St. Croix 5SC90MHF you can easily cast all line out with 27g lure. I was using 0,17mm braid which is little bit too thin imo. How many meters of .17 braid did you get on to the reel? You are correct, I wouldn’t want ...
