New Senko/Neko Rod

I'm looking for a new spinning rod for my Senko and Neko rig needs. I'm considering a few different models and I wanted to get some opinions. I was thinking something 7' medium powered, but I'm seeing a lot of options in this style going upwards of 7'6". That seems little long to me for a spinning r...

Let's see the finished result when you are done
I was hoping to put all ZPI parts on a ChMGL, but I can't seem to find this knob for the Chronarch from them.

Chronarch MGL Mechanical Brake Knob

I'm looking to order some custom parts from Hedgehog and I'm looking to replace the mechanical brake knob on my Chronarch MGL. I'm having a hard time figuring out which other reel has the same brake knob ad the new Chronarch MGL. I've tried the Metanium MGL, 13 Met, and the 09 Aldebaran MG. None of ...

Re: Orochi xx Tour Versatile for Grenades?

For the baits you're wanting to throw, I'd suggest the Dobyns Champion 736CB or 805/806CB. Check them out.

Re: Daiwa Deep Cranking Reel

I use a td luna 103 to great effect, but would rather have the low speed zillion tws. Wish they'd have made them in lefty! The JDM market has them in lefty. http://www.tacklewarehouse.com/Daiwa_JDM_Zillion_TW_1516_Casting_Reel/descpage-JDF.html Yeah, but they're pricey Check the auction website. Th...

Re: Daiwa Deep Cranking Reel

Does anyone know if the Zillion gear sets are swappable in the SV103?

Re: Shouldn't Megastrike have an odor to it?

The original formula doesn't have much (if any) odor at all and that is the way it is designed, according to what Bobby has posted on BR. The attractant is more of a flavor for the fish to make them hold on, rather than get them to smell it. I own both the original and crawfish one. The crawfish ver...

Re: New Shimanos up on japan tackle

I pre-ordered a Stile SS 151PG yesterday. Got an email back in under an hour saying I was the first in line. I bought last years Stile 101PG and loved it, but it's a shallower spool and is meant for closer distances. This 151PG should make an awesome deep cranking reel now that they deepened the spo...

Re: Best all around crankbait rod in the $200 range?

The 705CB will do almost anything. It's really a great rod.

If you're looking to throw more deep diving stuff (15 foot range), the 765CB might be a little better suited for you. I own that rod as well and use it for applications where I really want to reach out there.

SS SV103 Gear Set

I'm looking for a faster gear set for a SS SV103. Can anyone tell me which gears fit this reel? Or point me to who sells them?

Thanks!
