TackleTour

Just a random for fun post about how much my bank account hates me during this time of year.

Making a shopping list for 2018 and this is what I have included so far...

Reels:
Daiwa Steez A TW (Maybe 2)
Daiwa Tatula SV TW
Shimano Bantam MGL
17 Shimano Scorpion DC
Shimano Curado K (Maybe)

Rods:
Shimano Bantam (Not sure which yet)
Megabass new Orochi XX (Not sure which)
...Could add another spinning rod maybe something more versatile as my only 2 spinning rods are NRX 852s and Hedgehog Evoluzion F4st

Tackle:
Could use some more tungsten jigs
Could try new 110 silents
Would try the Jack Hammers
A bunch of Sunline and Power Pro

Thought It would be fun to start a Wishlist thread and update it as I go.
Also, this will likely change over the months.

Lets see what's on your wishlists for 2018!

Not a ton this year, but want the following:

Megabass Orochi XX Braillist
Bantam MGL PG
maybe a Dobyns 765 Glass cranking rod
spybaits
want to switch all my football jigs over to tungsten models

Surprisingly...not much for me.

Would like to get a more finesse oriented medium rod than the NRX 852c I have.

Other than that...few things intrigue me but, nothing I'm drooling over that I'd be willing to buy (Steez RD rod).

Destroyer Onager
Destroyer FMJ
Tranx 401
Shimano Bantam
Shimano Exsence Spinning
A few customs that still need to be built

I have already purchased my wish list for 2018.
Custom jerkbait rod built on a K2 684 blank with spiral wrapped Titanium SIC guides, Matagi trim parts, and painted ECS reel seat from Japan (Should have it in a couple weeks)
Steez SV TW 1012

Yup already got mine
Daiwa Compile-X rod
Steez A
2 Taula SV TWS
4 Tatula Elite rods
2 Zillion rods

Destroyer Oneten Special
Couple Conquests

Minn Kota Ultrex on the boat
I'm also trying to get about a half-dozen of my older well-worn custom rods replaced with fresher versions.
Hopefully it will be a cheaper year.

All since shortly before Christmas until now.

Hopefully I will not be able to respond to a similar thread next year. Going to try avoiding purchasing any more rods or reels in the future, and only replace terminal tackle as needed.

Shimano Aldebaran BFS and still debating which rod to pair it with.

Can you even get sv103 reels new anymore?
I had one and I sold it to fund another reel, and now I want some more sv103!! But cant find them anywhere

I bought mine from TW on closeout when only LHs were left.
