    I don't think that you can go wrong with any of these choices. I'm putting mine on a phenix recon 683 & moving my alderbaran bfs to the 682 or a volkey.
  2. The Budget Fisherman
    Phenix maxim 7'3 med/light 1/8 to 1/2 might work for you.
  3. The Budget Fisherman
    I have the 683 recon. I like it pretty well. Thinking of getting the 682 for small cranks.
  4. The Budget Fisherman
    Love my team gold. I'm very much interested in the team lite.

    The spool design is made to handle light braid. It was made for the Australian brimm market.

    The major craft rod is rated 1/3 to 2 oz. It's a 7'6 mf. I was looking into the rod myself. But that's all I know as they just came out. I guess it's a little longer than you would like.

    I know how the jdm bait monkey works. I got a alderbaran bfs & next thing you know I want a scorpion 1000xt. And I got to put it on a major craft volkey. The bfs is so much fun, I'm putting it on a phenix 683 recon. With the avail shallow spools they are so versatile.
  8. The Budget Fisherman
    Agree. I have the 734. Ilke it a lot but for A rigs I would probably get the 765.
  9. The Budget Fisherman
    I agree with jhoffmam

    Awesome looking reel.

    PAGreg Today, 04:27 PM Personally, I like having both centrifugal and magnetic brakes for pitching/flipping. Just a bit more control of the lure entering the water and backlashes. The super duty has only magnetic brakes. Super duty also seems a bit overkill for that application. Thus, I'm using a tournament mb in 8.3:1 ratio and used the money saved to get a bb1 pro for deep cranking. I thought the same
  12. The Budget Fisherman
    The tp has carbon fiber handles, duralumin spool an I thinking gearing also. The tournament mb is the version that is similar to the tp minus the duralumin .

    I got one in January , love mine. Hadn't had a chance to fish with it yet. Right now I have it on a old powell diesal with 8lb pline cx premium and have been tossing 1/8 dropshot weights with it. I'm impressed with the distance I'm getting. Still looking for the right rod for it. It impressed me enough to think about getting a scorpion 1000xt.
  14. The Budget Fisherman
    Might be the reel. I don't have a distance problem with my mg

    I am a fan of Lunkerville also. Great show
