Tim S. Posted June 21, 2015 Posted June 21, 2015 What pairing is that Matt? Any upgrades to the reel? That's an IS63L with a MB IS Finesse spool. I will take a shot in the dark. The rod is a Destroyer Phase 3 Criffhanger....? 1 Quote

Tim S. Posted June 21, 2015 Posted June 21, 2015 Couldn't see the reel seat, Matt- otherwise I would have known it was from the X7 line. Sweet set-up, no doubt! 1 Quote

Ordered 6/20/15 and got it 6/25/15. 803C JWR Don't worry Goose, I will be working on getting a fish with it later this evening... Awesome! Have fun catching!! I'm contemplating on purchasing either my first NRX or JDM reel. I have budget only enough for 1 right now, but this sure is making me lean towards a NRX. Quote

Diggy Posted June 27, 2015 Posted June 27, 2015 I expect epic pics after July 4th sales. I may have 1-2 more purchases in my future but the extreme heat probably wont allow me to fish them until January =/ 1 Quote

ABW Posted June 28, 2015 Posted June 28, 2015 2nd fish on the NRX was a dink. 1st was also. This rod is crazy sensitive....... I'm liking how this 803 handles 1/4 oz jigs. 6 Quote
Super User kickerfish1 Posted June 28, 2015 Super User Posted June 28, 2015 Nice, that should get the "Goose52" highest level of approval rating! Rod in use - Check Reel in use and spooled with line - Check Fish slime - Check 3 Quote
Super User Goose52 Posted June 28, 2015 Super User Posted June 28, 2015 Small fish, big fish - they all have slime... Congrats on getting the new rod on the water and catching fish... 2 Quote
Super User rippin-lips Posted June 29, 2015 Super User Posted June 29, 2015 Added some knobs to the finesse combo. Plus a 90mm tatula handle until I get a carbon one. 5 Quote
Super User rippin-lips Posted June 29, 2015 Super User Posted June 29, 2015 Thanks Goose. I'm not a big fan of red, but it works well on this reel. 1 Quote
*Hank Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 Added some knobs to the finesse combo. Plus a 90mm tatula handle until I get a carbon one. Looks good! Quote
Super User Jrob78 Posted June 30, 2015 Super User Posted June 30, 2015 I think that red looks clean af on that rod and reel. Quote
Super User kickerfish1 Posted June 30, 2015 Super User Posted June 30, 2015 Goose52 won't like this but I am working on getting the approval rating. Spooling it up tommorow night and will be fishing it for a bit this weekend. Fish slime will depend upon a bit of luck and good fortune! Quote
Joe H. Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 New reel came in today Pretty similar to the Curado I. It's lighter and narrower but longer. I'm definitely a fan of the longer handle. Out of the box feels about as smooth as the Curado, should loosen up when I throw some line on it and catch some fish Have it on an E6X for now: Bought it from Japan Lure Shop. Not bad for $260! Also thought it was nice they threw in a Fuji lure keeper as a "gift", which is perfect because I'm buying a Megabass rod for it. 5 Quote
Super User kickerfish1 Posted June 30, 2015 Super User Posted June 30, 2015 Very nice carpet, eh... Reels! Quote
Joe H. Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 Very nice carpet, eh... Reels! Thanks! Lol. It's actually pretty dirty It's an oriental rug, only open place I could find in the house that was soft enough for the reel! Quote
