I like it, I’m a sucker for cork knobs.

Did you seal the cork?

I’ve got 2 of the Tsurinoya reels. I have one paired up with a cheap Crappie Max rod from Bass Pro. It’s a great little combo for chasing our small bass. The casting performance is just shy of an Alphas R Edition I have on a JDM Daiwa UL rod.

I have several of the TW covers, and like them. I also have a couple of Academy Sports covered, they are slightly smaller and work great on Pixy’s, Alphas, etc.

I have a Kuying Teton 6’6” lighht action. I like it pretty well, can’t say how it will hold up. The first one I got, the tip section broke before even got line on it. But I saw good reviews, here and elsewhere, and decided to try another one. The action on these is more like an ultralight in the US....

Two or three, and I do the same when I’m in my little stick steer Tracker. I just decide what I’m going to throw and pick out the right rods for the job.

The Zillion Coastal, But they are getting very hard to find. I also like the blue Tatula Coastal, but they require a handle swap, I can’t stand those giant foam knobs.

I ordered a pretty good assortment of the dark sleepers. I thought I had something new, one of my kayak fishing buddy’s says, oh those, tried them last year, they’re ok.

I haven’t caught anything with them yet, but I haven’t fished a whole lot either.

It’s the Wal Mart effect. I never knew WM sold Falcon rods until I saw a Bucco in clearance bin.

Wal Mart places an order with a company with a trusted brand name, then slowly squeezes the profits out until they are forced to go Chinese or go out of business

I’ve got some little 3/16 Stanley spinnerbaits. But I can’t remember where I got them. They are the same size as the small 1/8 Strike Kings but are just a bit heavier, and more Castable.

It’s a baitcasting rod. Marked JOY TOGETHER and C702.

I thought I’d share a super nice little rod that TW has on clearance for $50. The Damiki angel EX. It’s a two piece rod list as medium power. EVA grips and a nice blue finish. https://www.tacklewarehouse.com/Damiki_Angel_EX_Casting_Rods_2-Piece/descpage-DAMCA.html I bought one each of the casting an...

I don’t think so

The Tsurinoya rod showed up today. It’s a 2 piece, 7foot rod with two tip sections. One is medium, the other medium light. It appears to be very well made. I will be a perfect match for my orange Daiwa Sol.

I ordered a tip section, and a whole second rod tonight. kuying Teton TTS662L. Now we see how long it takes to get here. From what I can tell, the Tsurinoya Proflex 2 now comes in a "Light" version too. I was planning on ordering a Teton next, either UL or Light, but it is hard to not try another P...

Local tackle shop here in Hot Springs, Arkansas has stepped up their game. I went in today and they got me for $100 worth, they had the Jackall Grinch in several colors, pretty good selection of Megabass Dark Sleepers, about all they were out of was the 3.8 inch 3/4 oz version. Also had a few swimba...
