I slipped while wading last year and fell on a big flat rock landing directly on my ass. Felt like someone had smacked my bottom with a 2x4. I sure wish I had been wearing my Hip guard GM-3615 that day.

At the prices those fetch I'll take a kistler klx or helium any day of the week.

For under $200, you can get a H3 direct from Kistler right now. That beats either of the mentioned brands' comparable offerings by at least $150.

Where are you seeing a deal on an H3 for under $200?

Thank for the info guys, I am going to dig out my o-ring kit and see what I can do.

I read where a guy stretched the spring that is between the dial and the screw to give it more resistance. Not sure if it works good because I have never tried it. That's really interesting. I supposed one could replace the spring with a stiffer one as well but idk how springs are “rated” so I don’...

An o-ring. I had to add one in lieu of the ss sv washer kit when I added a HH tension knob to my SV103. Works like a charm. I work in fluidics and have an endless supply at work. I can send you some if you want to go that route. Thanks for the offer! I have a big kit of o-rings that I bought for wa...

Hi, I have a couple Pixies and Alphases that I run with no to minimal spool tension. The issue I have is that the knobs are very loose and I am constantly tightening or loosening them by accident during handling. I was thinking of adding thick grease to the threads but I am afraid of getting grit an...

I actually like the current mag dial. I can adjust it one-handed and I guess I palm it the right way to not notice it. I feel the dial and the ridge under it on my pointer finger. I tried using two fingers in front of the trigger many times but I can't get used to it. Yeah palming with two finger i...

Give it a try some time, you might like it.

decided to google a yellow z2020. this reel looks insane. http://tzlure.com/%e5%8d%b3%e5%b0%86%e6 ... bd%ae.html

Forget that reel, what kind of fish is that?

I have a 783c and a 844c and I don't like the seat on either of them. It seems to push my hand into the trigger and about half of the reels I have tried on them are ergonomically awful. Small reels like Alphases or Aldebarans feel the best.

It’s a pretty small group of sites where you can buy JDM gear without Japanese language skill, so I don’t think there are any amazingly secret revelations being posted here.

I have the same problem on mobile. This is what I got ot of the description. Weight: 10.8 g (without ball bearing) / 12.6 g (with ball bearing) Coil size: ID 26.5 mm / OD 36 mm (with SV brake system) Material: Spool-A7075 \ shaft-stainless steel \ NMB ball bearing 3 * 10 * 4 mm Bandwidth: YGK X8 2....

One of these maybe? https://m.ru.aliexpress.com/item/32260387795.html?trace=wwwdetail2mobilesitedetail&spm=a2g0o.detail.1000014.33.7cb12172Oz05HD&gps-id=pcDetailBottomMoreOtherSeller&scm=1007.13338.132444.000000000000000&scm_id=1007.13338.132444.000000000000000&scm-url=1007.13338.132444.00000000000...

I was one click away from ordering one from ALF, but didn’t do it. If it was an MBR rod I would have but I am very well covered for bottom contact rods.

It’s a hell of a deal and I hope Loomis does more of them. I would jump all over limited editions of some of the discontinued CR and MBR rods.

I keep covers on my reels whenever they are not in my hand or in a rod holder. When bank-beating if I need to set my rod down I sacrifice my hat, it gets thrown on the ground, and then my reel gets set on it.
