I still use the Xcaliburs , if I ever lose em I’ll just buy the booyahs.

super spot by cotton Cordell my favorite.

What are your guys thoughts on theses rods?

Casted smoothie silk changed up my rod switched to my glass rod turned out that had a lot to do with my overruns I was using extra fast stiff rod. I actually have experience with theses brakes because I have a casitas. I also use a curado I but different breaks still a great reel though. Yeah I’m really liking this reel.

If that’s the case that worries me that it’s the reel I need to throw a crankbait asap.

Haha funny. I only use shimano reels but like I did mention I didn’t have a lot of time to throw heavier cranks I’ll play with it again soon.

Buy shimano it’s easier to learn how to use a baitcaster it’s more forgiving than a Diawa imo.

Trig senko for sure, see if there is actually any in there?

I like theses reels for nostalgiac purposes I would like to own em myself very nice looking.

Have you fished a glass rod before? You should consider that first I personally don’t like the feel of a glass rod maybe you should be looking at a graphite rod like a St. Croix mhmf mojo spinnerbait I use this rod for the applications you are talking about. And it’s a very good rod.

Yo zuri, because I like Japanese baits.

Fallowing.

Duckett ghost is a great choice for 100$ bucks they are very sensitive and the blanks are phenomenal go with a ghost you won’t regret it.

Traditional senko style stick bait always I never go finesse trick worm.

Nice looking baits ! Jerk jerk pause

It’s way better than the D Of course the k is better but we’re talking about the best for 150 and if thats all I had to spend I’d buy another 200i

Now. Lol

Next time get the proper measurements you won’t have this problem or get a cheapy scale I say call it a solid 4 and try and beat that from now on. So 4 is a great pb now you need a 5

Curado I is 149$ that’s the best you can get for 150 and it’s a great reel for all your applications.

Spinnerbait, chatterbait,squarebills and flukes,rage menace and senkos.

Will you be buying new or used?

I have a zodias 7mf spinning rod and I can tell you it’s my favorite rod. I definitely recommend a zodias. Extremely sensitive and strong you can’t go wrong with it. I was actually in your same predicament a year ago I couldn’t make up my mind between the loomis e6x or the zodias and I’m glad I picked the zodias.

Rage menace

I buy more expensive gear I like higher end shimanos and higher end rods. Iv come to a point where a lot of what I’m buying is more of a nostalgic product or novelty item for me. I love to buy what I can Barely afford. A lot of times I don’t even use some of it I just like looking at it on my shelve with the rest of my reels. Rods I don’t go to crazy 200 bucks is the most I’ll spend. I like showing them off to my buddies when we go fishing and they also do the same. I often fish with a buddy of mine that never spends more than 100 on his combos we catch about the same amount of fish. You don’t need expensive gear but it sure is a pleasure to fish with.
