thehooligan Posted March 27, 2013 Posted March 27, 2013 Loving your shimano lineup !! ^ Had the cumulus/core/megabass pop-x out today, its so crisp... 1 Quote
Super User kickerfish1 Posted March 27, 2013 Super User Posted March 27, 2013 Thehooligan... very sharp setup! Isn't it a bit early to reach for the pop max!!! I have the core 50mg paired up with 6'10 mh cumulus rod with 10# tatsu. To say this outfit impresses me would be an understatement. Casting distance and accuracy is phenomenal, the outfit is just smooth and comfortable, and everything that is happening with my bait is telegraphed so well, it leaves nothing in question. Congrats on an outstanding combo! 1 Quote
thehooligan Posted March 27, 2013 Posted March 27, 2013 I just picked that lure up as well with a dog-x and wanted to try them both out. And they fish amazing. Im also still looking for that 6'10 cumulus, hope to get one soon... Quote
JeziHogg Posted April 7, 2013 Posted April 7, 2013 My 2 Cranking rods Top is a St Croix Legend Xtreme 7'2MM with a Gen 3 Revo Winch loaded with 15lb Invisx (Used for shallow divers, squarebills and Jerkbaits in a pinch) Bottom is a St Croix Legend Tournament Big Cranker 7'8MHM with a Gen 3 Revo Winch usually loaded with 10lb Invisx (Used for Medium to Deep Diving crankbaits) Quote

Super User kickerfish1 Posted April 11, 2013 Super User Posted April 11, 2013 Digging the cumulus and cumara rods... very nice! Quote
thehooligan Posted April 13, 2013 Posted April 13, 2013 Man, that's a lot of cumulus rods, sweet.... 1 Quote
Super User Gone_Phishin Posted April 14, 2013 Super User Posted April 14, 2013 Man, that's a lot of cumulus rods, sweet.... I was thinking the same thing...awesome. Those sticks surely don't get enough love. I am really hoping Shimano surprises us this summer with their replacements. Quote
rcr1959 Posted April 14, 2013 Posted April 14, 2013 My equpment (sorry no pics) 2 Daiwa Tierras matched to Sellus 7'2" MH rods 1 Daiwa Ballistic matched to Falcon Bucoo 7' MH 1 1987 Daiwa SP33 7:1-Wohali 6'6" H Quote
JellyMan Posted April 14, 2013 Posted April 14, 2013 Everything looks pretty much like this. The 4 setups may be light compared to a lot of you, but I like it this way. It's straight forward, minimal, and saves me money. I never get into a situation where I wished I had another setup. Florida fishing is also pretty standard with baits, technique, and depth.

Super User lmbfisherman Posted April 15, 2013 Super User Posted April 15, 2013 Here is my arsenal for 2013. In picture 1 from left to right.

This year I decided to invest in more quality rods. I do have other rods that aren't paired, I'm trying to sell. In all it would be a count of 31, couple would serve as backup (Compre 6'10" MH/XF, BPS Extreme 7' MH/F and V Rod 7' M/F in process of using warranty due to reel seat issue, so I maybe getting a Crucial in the same power action in the coming weeks).

Super User kickerfish1 Posted April 15, 2013 Super User Posted April 15, 2013 Really digging picture #1. Good stuff! Quote
thehooligan Posted April 22, 2013 Posted April 22, 2013 Got rid of a really nice shimano to get this jdm aurora.... but, it a pretty sweet reel.... 2 Quote
Super User kickerfish1 Posted April 23, 2013 Super User Posted April 23, 2013 Nice grab! Looks like someone has been bitten by the jdm bug. Dare I ask what reel you got rid of to make room for the new addition? Quote
bassinbrian Posted April 24, 2013 Posted April 24, 2013 Got rid of a really nice shimano to get this jdm aurora.... but, it a pretty sweet reel.... Trust me you'll like it Quote
thehooligan Posted April 24, 2013 Posted April 24, 2013 Trust me you'll like it thanks brian, i had it out for a bit, its pretty sweet. Nice grab! Looks like someone has been bitten by the jdm bug. Dare I ask what reel you got rid of to make room for the new addition? thanks, got rid of a practically brand new chronarch 51. Ive been all over the place with baitcasters and found out i really like the daiwas the best. I picked up the 103 type f two weeks ago, yesterday i got a px type r, and today i got a good deal on a tdz 103ml. I decided to to keep my curado 51, i just love this reel and my core 51 is gonna go to cover some of these new additions, lol. Quote
Super User kickerfish1 Posted April 24, 2013 Super User Posted April 24, 2013 Good stuff. You will like the TDZ, the predecessor to the Steeze. I have 100m and it is stellar reel. Your arsenal has been going bananas lately. Congrats on the cool gear! Should be an enjoyable year on the water even if the bite is tough. 1 Quote
thehooligan Posted April 24, 2013 Posted April 24, 2013 Thanks kicker, I think in all my hobbies I go on a buying spree until I figure what I like best... Right now I've got it down to shimano rods, shimano spinning reels, and daiwa baitcasters. When the money recoups it might be nrx time Quote
thehooligan Posted April 27, 2013 Posted April 27, 2013 px r... this guy is jellous Speaking of that reel, i had it out for the first time today and it was a pleasure to fish with. I also had my core 51 out as well comparing them and i couldnt find which one i liked better, both amazing reels... On the downside, the tdz 103 i picked up was a let down. I open the box and the handle cover is missing, then i look at the spool and theres a hairline crack in it. Not sure if im going to be fixing this one up or hoping i can send it back for a refund....
