shimano and daiwa are fierce rivals in japan, with each trying to position themself as the leader in innovation. bent handles are a daiwa innovation which other companies quickly copied for themselves

I'll start with the bent handles. It has nothing to do with Daiwa- they had nothing to do with inventing it. The bent handles move the center of mass of the reel inward, as well as torque, and change

I had some issues with a Lews, and eventually every Abu I had either went back to Pure fishing or back to Bass Pro for an exchange. I loved all my Abu products, I just hated that every single one of t

I don't have to explain anything to my woman lol. And I won't be needing any knee pads. I won't be turning into some D bag fan boy any time soon. I spent a few hours tonight on the water with it, and I wasn't blown away. I didn't flush the bearings though, and I was in a hurry and over spooled it a bit so I can't make an honest assessment just yet. We're so glad you're back...... :tool:

Way to ruin a thread.

No derailed thread in existence can compare to the train wreck more commonly called the Dallas Cowboys. !!!

Well it's most likely going to be locked. I actually enjoyed reading all of the responses. Act like an adult. Grow up.

Clearly you weren't around for all of LMG's Shimano posts. And what more do you wanna read? Rock had questions and it devolved into me getting a Shimano and LMG making a special guest appearance. No need to stick around for the end credits.....

See what happens when friends let friends get a Shimano? Derailed threads.  :laugh5:  Had I just swapped my S for a new one, it would be all kittens, rainbows, and puppies.

Kittens and puppies pee on the carpet and Rainbows are kinda gay so a derailed thread is much better!

I have seen the posts from LMG and TNbassin on other threads. I have nothing against either one of these fellas. Their posts make me chuckle. With that being said LMG started this latest with poking a stick at Tnbassin. Maybe you should reread who ruined the thread. Just saying.

I believe it's all in good fun, though it does get testy sometimes. I'm pretty sure LMG and I are cut from the same cloth, as we both seem to try to get a rise out of people for our own amusement. I have nothing personal against the guy, but I couldn't pass up the opportunity to use the "tool smiley". As far as him or I ruining this thread.....nah. Can't fault him for him for saying "I told you so" when it comes to Shimano, as I've been known to be an Abu guy though I'm not brand loyal at all. Had he bought an Abu I would've done the same thing lol.

I see where you are coming from. But it's the childish name calling.

Im not saying you are a bad person or anything, it just didn't sit right with me. Didnt mean to be disrespectful.

You're fine buddy. No offense taken. At the end of the day, despite what brands we use we are still after the same thing: giant bass. And calling someone a "tool" nowadays pretty much equates to calling them a "doo doo head".

I don't know why it got to me so bad. I guess it was to the two hours of sleep before finals.

That can do it. How much longer until you're out for the summer? Here in TN, there's less than a week for most schools.

2 more days. Then it's fishing every single day of the summer. 6:30am till 8:30am topwater in a lake with so much weeds. Then 9:00am till 8:00pm in the bottom lake throwing cranks, craws, 8" Hudds.
