Hello, I have a TD Ito that I converted to a swept handle, but the lock but has become lose. It fell off last time I set the hook with it and the handle fell in the lake! So, I’m thinking of tapping it to use the stz bolt screw style. Anyone know the thread type and inner diameter for the stz lock b...

Both combos are smokin hot!

Oh yeah! You got me there, those Steez RD rods are killer! Thanks Bronzefly! I will be getting the x bite and probably the dark sleeper =D> Just curious, what did you replace the P3 bearing down with for short pitching? You're welcome! Those are both excellent choices. I cycle through a lot of tackl...

Thanks Bronzefly! I will be getting the x bite and probably the dark sleeper =D> Just curious, what did you replace the P3 bearing down with for short pitching? I was a fan of the P3 BD myself and fished it for a few years before it found a new home. It was certainly a fine close quarters pitching r...

It is kind of a love hate rod. I loved how it was so light, balanced, sensitive, and great for hooksets. But absolutely hated it for casting. With my worm / jig rods I do a mix of pitching and accurate soft roll casts. And the stiffer tip was awful for roll casting and if I am pitching I prefer som...

That thing is pure hotness!

That ito steez is awesome!!
