Megabass 2022 USDM P5 models ?!?
Any more details on these? @Bronzefly
Saw a quick vid and late '22 release. Real excited as I'm quite enjoying the current P5 rods.

2022 USDM Megabass Destroyer P5s
The hook up posted a video on YouTube of the new USDM models. I’m officially hyped. Can’t wait for TTT to open up pre-orders.
The FMJ, and Daemos are going to fit in perfectly with my current rotation. Really hoping we see a new Javelin, I still kick myself for not buying more before they were discontinued.

Please tell me the Javelin is coming. There was a hint in that video there were two more models on the way. Jav and Otomat or ML spinning are my pipe dreams.

Not going to say where I may have heard it from and it maybe it's false... but the other two models will be Jav and Flyssa released in 2023 spring/summer.TNBankFishing wrote: ↑Fri Mar 04, 2022 11:13 amPlease tell me the Javelin is coming.

Re: 2022 USDM Megabass Destroyer P5s
Yes please! The FMJ is my favorite jig rod. Not sure I'm going to upgrade, but I've been mortally afraid that it would break and that I couldn't get a replacement (looks like the new rod is going to be 2 inches longer and officially maxes out at 1oz, though). Glad to have the Addermine back, as well; the F3.5 power is that perfect middle ground where you can still finesse but also throw light t-rigs. Not too stoked about the identical P5 styling, but maybe that's just me.
This is the announce btw, they're not expected to shop until winter 22. Video is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FLu_uInt86E
With these rods costing $500 - $550 the days of Destroyers being a steal are officially over, though. I thought that USDM Destroyers at $400 were a steal - cheaper than GLX, better sensitivity.

Been awaiting this announcement. Pity the addermine has the new handle design. No way I am paying $500 for a spinning rod with that handle. Guess I am going to grab a STEEZ spinning rod instead.

Which one you fancy?

Re: 2022 USDM Megabass Destroyer P5s
Big megabass fan. Not a fan of the P5 handle design. I never bought one of the JDM P5’s and I’m not sure if I’ll buy the USDM P5’s. No way am I buying a spinning rod with those tiny grips, and I hate the small butt grips on the casting models. I was hoping that would change with the USDM models. Shame, I really want a oneten stick. I may get the new 6’10 expride instead and save $250.

Wish the handle changed too! Darn. They had a great design on the previous gen.

Finally an expected date... Yuskei whispered this to us a couple years ago, but of course the global supply chain issue has severely impacted roll out.

A Daemos and the Mark56 caught my eye. If I didn’t already have two One Ten Sticks….
I like the handle design and have really enjoyed the P5 rods that I have.
