Chronarch D7 and Alphas Ito Ai.

The old Scorpion 1000. Best finesse worm caster in my arsenal.

Beautiful. J-Dream has a clean look to them.

I lost the spring that clicks on the Scorpion 1000 (w/ 4x4 braking system) during routine maintenance. Are there any parts from US Shimano reels that are compatible that I can purchase from Shimano USA?
Thanks,

For its footprint, they pack a lot of power and feel very smooth under load. If you're going to be fishing in some very nasty stuff, this is the reel.

I've been dormant for a while. I just wanted to out of my cave to say IT'S ABOUT DANG TIME DAIWA!

I don't mind the little extra weight over the Curado for a little more metal.
Anyone know what type of Magforce it will have? TW description just says Magforce.

My local Wal-Mart carries B&M Bucks Crappie rods. I picked up a couple on sale.
Not bad pricing on the Trokar hooks. Do anyone know if the Trokars offered at WalMart is the same (sharpness and material wise) as the $10 per pack ones at other places?

Thank for the suggestion. Micro guides never crossed my mind.

Hi fellow TT members. Long time since I put out a long post. The crappie bite bit me all last year. I'm hooked. Most of the crappie rods that are sold are in the $50-70 and use basic guide and reel seat materials. For the intended purpose of catching crappie, it does the job well. I am using a Bass ...

I have a 7MH Zillion rod on a Zillion CC reel. I use it to throw Deps Basirisky frog over the summer. I prefer the super fast tip of the Zillion because I can get a good hookset on even when line is out very far. I never had a problem controlling fish. It is also a good pitchin rod. It handles pitch...

BPS Crappie Maxx model:CXS10-2 for me this year. Did not bass fish much.
If yall think rods over 7ft are long, wait til you handle a 9-14ft rod.

I live on a 240 acre private lake subdivision so launching is three blocks away. Access to the lake by foot is just down the cul-de-sac.

Launch at Truman Lake (MO) is 1hr away.

Not the best vehicle or boat, but it still works.

Looks very nice Nitro.

man, why did shimano change the from chronarch D's? :crying: :crying: Just a wild guess, but probably cannibalization of the Core or rising manufacturing cost. The new Chronarch at $199 is the dumbest move I've seen from Shimano. If they're going to pull a fast one, at least give it a metal drag st...

If you open the side hatch cover, there's a peg that goes into a slot on the frame to align the hatch cover. There's a rubber O-ring on that peg that serves as a buffer. Well, if you palm grip your reel and put a little too much pressure on the side hatch cover, it will shift a little bit becuase t...
