  1. Would you say you can throw a buzz bait on the Dark sleeper? Would you say that you could throw buzz baits on the Dark sleeper?
  2. No worries, not your fault. It’s hard to know exactly what they mean when translating those videos, but I’ll keep trying, haha.
  3. Any chance you could send me any information you have on all the Machine Gun Cast types? I can’t find very much information on them, mostly Japanese YouTube videos that don’t translate well. Thank you in advance.
  4. Is there anyone who owns or knows anything about either of these Raid rods? I've been trying to find information about them outside of their own website, but it's pretty difficult to come by. I mainly want to know how they compare against a Destroyer P5 (or any other higher-end rod) in terms of quality, sensitivity, etc... Thank you in advance.
  5. I was curious as to what the best uses for this reel are. I’ve been using it for a little while now, but I’m not necessarily sure what techniques it’s really MEANT for. Of course, the shallower spool will have something to do with it. The description on Daiwa’s site, and some other places, vs people’s personal experiences have confused me. Can it handle heavier applications or is it meant only for lighter/finesse applications? I own this, a zillion, and the new SS Air TW, so this will decide whether or not I keep this reel. Otherwise I plan to sell it and use it to buy a spinning for dropshot/free rig, etc… Thank you all in advance, any information is appreciated.
  6. Yep, this is helpful for sure. Also, how much for you to let that Wind Buster go? And although I’m sure it has no functionality issues, does it have any aesthetic issues at all? Thank you again for the response sir, it was great information.
  7. Okay, I understand now, it isn't the weight. So, from what I've heard I think that with the TS, the lighter BF, and the WB I should be able to cover most, if not all, of the techniques I wanted to cover. The X-bites does seem like a more open-water/slow dragging compact jig rod. But if this rod can handle lighter AND heavier jigs, I think this is the one.
  8. Thank you for the information, also, I wanted to say that your YT video on the Tachy was easily the most informative one I could find. Another question I had was whether or not you think that the Tachy can handle compact jigs; I know from The Hook-Up Tackle that the X-Bites excels at this and that is why I was torn between the two... based on what you said the ideal range would be from 5/16 oz - 3/4 oz. I'm honestly not even sure what classifies as a "compact" jig; does it refer to the size of the presentation or the weight?
  9. Hello, I just had some questions about these two P5 rods. For anyone who has either of them, what would you say is the ACTUAL lure weight range in which each of these rods excels (if you could please say the total weight, i.e., bait + hook/weight). I plan on using the BF for all around finesse plastics and finesse jigs, and the WB for drop-shot/free rig/small jerks and small cranks/light topwater. Lastly, I do everything other than punching, throwing large swimbaits or glide baits, and heavy top-water (mainly finesse plastics, fb/compact/finesse jigs and other bottom-contact like drop-shot and T-rig). Will these 2 rods, plus a Tachyon Shaft cover all those techniques? Thank you in advance. I appreciate any and all of your information.
  10. No worries, your question about the practical lower end of the TS was really helpful to me as well.
  11. Hello, I was simply curious about the specific differences between these two P5 rods. I'm trying to decide between the two as my jig and Texas-rigged soft plastics. For anyone who has it, what would you say is the ACTUAL lure weight range in which each of these rods excels (if you could please say the total weight, i.e., jig + trailer, etc...). I am also planning to purchase a P5 Bait Finesse and a P5 Windbuster, so the baits that this can cover may also have to be taken into account. I plan on using the BF for all around finesse plastics and finesse jigs, the WB for drop-shot/free rig/small jerks and small cranks/light topwater, and the TS or X-Bites for jigs/Texas-rig soft plastics. I will say that I plan on fishing cover, shallow water, docks (skipping*** and pitching***). Lastly, I do everything other than punching, throwing large swimbaits or glide baits, and heavy top-water (mainly finesse plastics, fb/compact/finesse jigs and other bottom-contact like drop-shot and T-rig). Will these 3 rods cover all those techniques? Thank you in advance, I apologize for asking so many questions. I tried to be as concise as possible, but I have been looking for answers to these questions without much success.
