Market economics....demand and supply. Japanese market for Japanese tackle = bargain with your retailers, get a better price. American market for Japanese tackle = pay retail+. I don't think anyone is getting ripped off.

There are some funky bug looking plastics out there. Along the lines of the Kinami Nories thing and that Beaver lure. I guess the most exotic I go is a brush hog but that one isn’t really too funky as it kinda looks like a lizard + a skirted double tail grub. What is your favorite funky bug lure wit...

Good news. Glad they saw the light and did what they should have done in the first place. Personally, I think I'll wait for the new Steez rods, not as much bling but I'll be happy and not so worried all the time. On the other hand, if no more reports of broken rods, then maybe, just maybe.......I'll...

I know yall are cringing at my revelations but it works for me. ;) I think your avatar has more to do with our cringing Dan, we prefer the cigar box artwork... this dude is just plain scary :lol: I thought was a pic of Dan from the 70's. It just dawned on me that is a pic of imus from the 70's. :lo...

But then again......it's got a Lifetime Warranty.

I have the medium CPSX66MB, love it, very sensitive, like the thru blank on the foregrip. Unfortunately, I've only caught dinks with it so far as I only bought it in early March. I probably wouldn't want a large northern fish on that rod with light line. Large bass....I could probably work him for a...

Logically, the rod was bought in FEBRUARY. Why would anyone break it on purpose after a couple of months? Sheesh. Please keep us updated.

I've been contemplating the Megabass plunge myself but more stories like this and I may be going with another particular manufacturer with a lifetime warranty.

Re-Ty, Re-Tie sp?? I usually hardly re-tie my lures, casual fishing. So, thought I would throw out this question to everyone. How often do you re-tie your lure(s), specifically, moving baits? More of the casual fishing angle but feel free to respond to other situations. Because…..over the weekend, m...

Gameover.....u r da man. Thanks for answering all my questions.

Awesome....Thanks.

I did a search but did not see an answer.....are there any published prices for the MegabassUSA rods? or, what are the price ranges of the various lines? I could do some Yen conversions from a different site to get a ball park number but too lazy for all that. On the Evoluzion line, since they are m...

Finally ....... Game On. As in fishing ......

This is my first year playing fantasy and I'm playing in a public NC league. Fun stuff so far. Maybe next year I could get in the TT league, possibly .... if you guys don't mind?

Thanks for your review......Said it before, will say it again......Love my Luna. Caught red fish + snook with it, use it for inshore fishing whenever I am at the beach, I've bass fished with it throwing senkos no problem. Great reel and I love the all metal construction. You got it right with castin...

I'm my own grandpa .....

Have any of you guys used the Steez reel on a Steez rod AND an Elseil? If so....which rod do you think performs better with that particular reel or is the difference negligible?
