I’ve caught 6’ sharks on ugly stiks and Abu 6500 with mono. Surely this could do It.

Yeah I think I’ll get the lexa 300 and use that combo for big swimbaits and for sharks/tarpon next time I go to Florida. What say you?

What model okuma?

Sorry I was looking at the price of the Tranx 150 ($209). The Lexa HD 300 is looking more and more like the reel I want. Especially with the power handle.

Im not sure this huge chunk of plastic I was throwing was very aerodynamic.

The new Lexa 300 hd looks good.

The US Tranx 300 is less expensive than even the JDM Tat 300. Might go with It.

What line is that?

Zillion for sure.

How is the Catalina BJ and Calcutta F?

All I know is, when I go to a big bait, unless I’m lightly lobbing It which isn’t good distance, even on 20 setting, the spool over runs. This was a probably 3oz bait. Maybe 2.5. No problems casting smaller. The rod is a dobyns Fury 795sb. Rated 1-5 oz.

Someone in the other thread said the weight of my bait shouldn’t cause backlashes. I don’t know. All I know is when I throw bigger baits I can put It all the way to 20 on the brakes and It still overruns if I cast any harder than a lob. My rod is a Dobyns Fury 795sb. Is there a JDM version of the Tranx for cheaper than the US model?

I don’t know exact weight but this was a 7” smashtech.

I see I’m not the only one that got the exceler.

My Tatula 150p couldn’t cut It when I stepped up to bigger swimbaits. So it’s going back to deep crank duties and I’m getting a new reel. I like the Tatula 300 and can get It on Digitaka for about $220. However, I’m open to other reels in that price range. Just don’t know what’s out there. Any ideas?

I guess I’m the odd ball. My jerkbait/light topwater rod is not even close to my spook rod. I use a Dobyns 734c for spooks and buzzbaits.

Day two of road trip. Sorry it’s not bass

This exactly

Those were the bomb to have back in about 94 when I was 9. Never caught anything on them but thought I was something getting them for Christmas.

I think sometimes people just misuse the word warranty for replacement policy and then people get really angry about It. Lol

Shoot there’s meth everywhere

If a manufacturer offers a replacement policy at a fee, which I don’t know if Lews does or not, are you guys saying you wouldn’t take advantage of that?
