BassmanDan Posted March 20, 2015 Posted March 20, 2015 After just getting my 3rd Metanium XG I am officially D O N E!! Gotta say it's a relief to be ready for the season. I was expecting them to be long gone at the prices the JDM sites are selling them for. Quote
OK Bass Hunter Posted March 20, 2015 Posted March 20, 2015 Just ordered a Conquest 400, should be here by Tuesday. 1 Quote
oldschoolbasser Posted March 28, 2015 Posted March 28, 2015 Just got an email from Hedgehog Studios about dress-up parts for the new Alpha. Offset star drag wheel,mechanical brake cap,screws,level wind bar,handle locking plates,and knob caps are available. I don't know how to copy and paste links,sorry. That's why I'm called Oldschoolbasser, not Youngcomputergeek. I'll figure it out one day,pprobably when tjey quit building Ambassadeurs Quote

OK Bass Hunter Posted March 28, 2015 Posted March 28, 2015 Ok, the reel has been stuck at customs for a week. So no Conquest 400 for me yet. Quote
Flywatersmallie Posted March 29, 2015 Posted March 29, 2015 Ok, the reel has been stuck at customs for a week. So no Conquest 400 for me yet. My Metanium DC was in customs for 6 days earlier this month. Here's to hoping for a speedy resolution for you! I have some higher end stuff like the Metanium and I do like owning and playing with that stuff. Though I am generally a kayak fisherman, as such my reels get wet and often take a beating so... I use a lot of the $100-150 reels. I am waiting on 5 Daiwa Lexa, I got 3 a couple weeks ago but were no longer on sale locally. Tough to beat that reel at the current sale price at TW. Also just received a couple of the Okuma RTX spinning reels. Nice light option for anyone looking! Quote
Super User SirSnookalot Posted March 30, 2015 Super User Posted March 30, 2015 As one can see this item has been returned to sender after clearing customs March 4. This has happened to me well over 20 times, from all over the orient. On average I get about 2 shipments per month, some fishing items and other items too. I've had the same scenario happen from Europe. http://www.track-trace.com/post Quote

How do you like that Quantum Tour MG? I'm looking for a 100 sized lightweight Bait caster and was considering that or a JDM Metanium. Quote
Super User gulfcaptain Posted March 30, 2015 Super User Posted March 30, 2015 How do you like that Quantum Tour MG? I'm looking for a 100 sized lightweight Bait caster and was considering that or a JDM Metanium. It's really nice. Casts great, smooth, and the set up I have it on is ultra light. I have picked up a reel I retired this year and then that combo, the reel I'm retiring weights more then both together (less then 7.5oz). I got it for a great deal and wish I could find another one for the same price as it was $160 on Ebay. That was a steal for that reel. I wouldn't hesitate if you're thinking of getting one, it's a great reel. Quote
bass raider Posted March 31, 2015 Posted March 31, 2015 l suspect there will be a Citica i at icast 2015 and if so I plan on getting one of those& possibly a quantum energy.i've always found the energy's attractive and I would finally like to be the owner of one! may even try to hunt up a shimano curado D&E I would love to add those two to my arsenal.

Lunker Chunker 88 Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 I just picked up two Daiwa Lexas while they were on sale on TW, and I gotta say I'm pretty impressed. These are my first Daiwa products so I'm excited to get them out on the water. Just out of the box I like the look and feel. Quote
