Put it on the nrx for jigs and senkos. I used an sv tw sh for jackhammers on an nrx 843 once or twice in a pinch and I felt way too many vibrations through the reel. Used a steez a sh instead just so my hand wouldnt go numb after awhile.

In the link polkfish posted, you can go back to the article and shown are the spinning models

I too saw it on THUT's instagram, those instagram story videos disappear after 24hrs or something. There is a new Destroyer being debuted at the Osaka show. New blank, "5-D graphite". This is all I could find on it

Thanks for the pics

Anyone know how close of a match IXA's "light blue" and ZPI's "blue"? They look like a near match in pictures.

Just wanted to note that while looking on Shimano Japan's website today, these Adrenas make use of the new Spiral X Core technology. In comparison with Spiral X, the torsion strength has been increased by 10% and the crushing strength has been increased by 15%. Is the new 6'10" a glass rod? It has a...

Looks interesting, saw a photo of the rod on the Tackle Trap's Instagram story a day or two ago. Looks like the additional models make use of the newer Spiral X Core technology too. Can anyone with a current model Ultima (preferably 172H) confirm whether the guides are all Torzite or a mix of Torzit...

Based on like 1 video I saw, the *new* Poison Adrena is more sensitive than the Poison Glorious and is closer to GLX level, possibly approaching NRX. As far as build quality goes, I've read quite a few complaints about the GLX and even NRX. No such complaints about the new PA. Can you post a link? ...

The new Adrena handle doesn't bother me in the cold. Though, if you think your Exprides make your hands cold, the Adrena has the same ci4 reel seat. The new handle is definitely slick when wet as has been mentioned in other threads here on TT. I haven't fished the new Adrena 7'2H but have a lot of t...

Was talking with a buddy regarding the Catalina's line capacity. Decided to do the math but it doesn't add up in my opinion. Seem to not hold a lot of 20lb sniper. Tackle trap claims 140yds of 50lb braid. I used the info of basic PowerPro, 50lb has a diameter of 0.36mm. Pretty close to that of 20lb ...

Fair points. I do believe I need to get a BFS rod for the 5 gram lures I plan to throw. I was just shocked that the Shimano BFS rods were mostly rated at the low end at 4 grams. Not a big jump from the low end rating of 5 grams on my currently used Poison Adrena ML.

I must note I have no BFS equipment experience. I've been considering getting a Shimano BFS rod for the past month or so. Something I've noticed however is that nearly all their BFS rods are rated at the low end at 4 grams. I've got a newest generation Poison Adrena 6'6 ML that's rated down to 5 gra...

No, the line was passed over it. I put a half spool of line on the stock spool to try my hand at casting an 8 gram tube. It would seem that the line made contact with the stabilizer bar when the spool was low fill. The bar appears to have slightly bent downward with a slight bow and this was done tr...

This part is supposed to be straight right? Just noticed that mine is slightly bent out of shape. I would think I did the damage trying to break a snag free and the line made contact with it

Rods are 7'm xc, 6'10"m mighty stroke, 6'11" mh hyper approach, and 7-4" mh biwako. Ordered 2 from ebay (shimreels), then 2 from jdm tackle haven. Tackle haven is by far the cheapest place to buy jdm rods I found out...and it's not even close. Shipping was also only $75 for both rods from haven, sh...
