No discount on spark shads in my cart. What gives? Ah. After double check, my eyes deceive me. They’re discounted. Carry on, I’m wrong. Order all the megabass folks! 2 Quote
Super User FishTank Posted January 20, 2022 Super User Posted January 20, 2022 Here is the latest pick up.... I really like the Levante. I have not fished it yet but what a nicely made rod. I also picked up 5 packs of Ned rigs heads, drop shot weights and hooks, a new rod rack and some spark shads. It was a busy week for the monkey. 14 Quote

Which model did you get? I have the Jerkbait Special. It's a really nice rod. My only gripe is I don't like how short the trigger is. Definitely shorter compared to all my other casting rods. I feel I don't have as much grip and control with the rod as I do others. I normally have the trigger between my pinky and ring finger. I'm curious if other models in the lineup have the shorter triggers as well. Of course it may not bother others. All depends how you hold it I guess. 1 Quote

Also my only gripe about the rod Thats my only complaint about the megabass casting rods. The short trigger is not comfortable to me. I dont feel like i have as much control over the rod, especially on hooksets. Therefore I no longer own any of their casting models Quote

I might try the standard and the pitch/flip. I hope they are as good as I think they will be. I love my really old Okuma Helios. I bought it when it first came out and it has been used hard as a frogging reel and never missed a beat. It is still as good as it was the first day I tried it. Not much maintenance on it either.

I picked up a Curado 150 MGL and still have another reel to buy…really love the look of the new BB1 Pro I really haven't used it yet, other than as a fidget spinner. I have to admit I am not the biggest Lew's fan based on the reels I have worked on. That was until someone asked me to go over their new BB1 and oil it. I liked it so well, I bought one. Is it as good as a Curado?> Again, not sure yet. My initial thoughts are no but it does feel, inside and out, like a quality reel. If you are looking to go a step up from the Curado 150 MGL, maybe the Chronarch MGL or the Bantam MGL (JDM version is worth it). I picked up the BB1 for $160 based on a post from DodgeGuy. For that price, it's a great reel for the money. Quote
