Re: daiwa reel suggestion for my steez punch/flip rod

thanks everyone. I will definitely look into the sv103. I used my zillion tws 7:3 this weekend and it performed flawlessly. as id prefer a little more of a compact reel. I feel like I'm gonna stick with this and wait for a good deal on a sv103 for now.

daiwa reel suggestion for my steez punch/flip rod

just purchased the Steez XT 8ft heavy XF for punching and heavy flipping. was looking for a proper daiwa reel in there new lineup to go with it. most of the daiwa reels seem to have a low drag rating. I do not want to get the zillion HD though because I prefer a smaller profile reel. I was thinking ...

Zillion TWS

Pretty simple and straight forward: Was wondering if the Zillion TWS is basically the same reel as the tatula/tatula type R dimensions wise? I understand that its more than likely far superior to the tatula. Also, is the new Zillion SV TW a more narrow version like the tatula CT/CT type R? thanks

Re: Curado 300DSV upgrades

i have added that as I had mentioned in my post. was looking for anything else possibly. also looking to see if they make swept star drags so I can add a swept handle or will a swept handle fit on it with the stock star drag?

Curado 300DSV upgrades

I'm trying to revamp one of my old Curado 300DSV's. I replaced the bearings w/ ABEC-7 orange seal bearings, replaced the old drag w/ a carbon drag, and added a drive gear bearing. I guess I'm just wondering what next could I do? or is that it lol? im also interesting in "pimping out my ride" but hed...

Re: 13 Fishing Envy crankbait rod

they are composite Toray graphite and T-glass.

I know the Crankenstein is a legit rod. I'm more interested in the middle crank rod in the series. the 7'4" cranking rod

Re: 13 Fishing Envy crankbait rod

thank you. that would be awesome! I will actually be throwing chatterbaits mostly. But I will also be throwing 6xd's and DD22's on it as well. I'm hoping its a stiffer glass and a thicker blank like the KVD rods. they use to make a KVD 7'4" MH that was legit for chatterbaiting but I'm not a huge fan...

13 Fishing Envy crankbait rod

I was looking for feedback on the 13 Fishing Envy Black 7'4" Cranking rod. I've heard people say that it is to stiff for a composite rod and that its rated far lower than it should be lure weight wise. any thoughts? also what is the blank thickness like {thick like the KVD blank or thin like the Pow...
