Hello all. I am new to the high end bass fishing equipment. I recently picked up my first couple of high end rods, a nrx 802s , and a GLX 852s. I got these this past week at Cabelas because they were on a pretty decent sale. I have a couple decent spinning reels but would like to upgrade when I can find something that goes on sale. I stumbled upon the Daiwa JDM exist on tackle warehouse https://www.tacklewarehouse.com/catpage-DAIWARELLS.html?from=basres I have heard good things about the Daiwa LT exists but don't know anything about the JDM models. Does anyone have experience with these reels? Also, any advice with which model to get would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hello all. I have a question regarding whcih ultrex to buy. I have 2 helix units. A 9 mega si g2n and a 9 di g2n. I would like to pair them with an ultrex but cant decide whether to get one of the new units with the built in mdi, or last generations unit with just the 2d. There are some good deals on last generations models and in a perfect world, i would buy one of those, mount my di transducer on it, and call it good. However, i have been told that there are imaging issues related to a mounted di on an older ultrex. I was told that each time the motor moves, it causes a disturbance and creates a break in the image. Does anyone have experience with a mounted di transducer on last gens ultrex, how well it performs, and whether it is worth upgrading to the current generation ultrex with mdi? Thanks in advance for any help
