  1. This probably won't be much help as I have never fished the Sol, but my 4th Chronarch Mg is on its way! I'm sure the Sol is a very nice reel but I just love my Mg's. Good luck!
  2. Well, I think the Chronarch D looks sweet and it's probably going to be a real performer. I already have some money set aside for it.
  3. x2. I've always enjoyed reading your posts Reel Mechanic.
  4. Had the same thing happen to me on my first 5 lb. fish, if it hadn't been for fishing left and being ready to set the hook and reel instantly I wouldn't have gotten it. I guess you didn't bother to read through the referenced thread I posted on page 1: Re: Why is the reel handle on the right Reply #15 - Aug 22nd 2007 at 11:37:12 By George Welcome Let's get technical, as there are in fact reasons, not just some lame holdover from days past that put the handles where they are. What will move the fish during retrieval is placed to the strong hand! A baitcast is designed to be used as a winch, so it is the reel that retrieves the fish. Hence if you are right handed the handle is in your right hand. A spinning reel is designed to pick up unloaded or loose line, not retrieve the fish. Hence it is the rod that does the retrieval, so it is the rod that is in your strong hand. If you are right handed then the pole goes to the right hand. That makes very littel sense and I believe it is just a fancy worded up excuse. x2! ;D
  5. Welcome Outdoor Channel! It's good to have you aboard.
  6. I get much higher performance out of visually pleasing combos. : ;D
  7. I think the colour is pretty sweet. I just have to find a rod with the right colour to go with it. Crucial.......Avid........hmmmmm :-/
  8. I think it's a good idea.
  9. Well........I had 1 Chronarch Mg (that I loved) and when I found out that they were being discontinued I bought two more, so................I don't know what to tell you.
  10. Good question! I would like to hear some opinions as well.
  11. ^I'm drinking one of those right now ;D^
  12. I see nothing wrong with that! ;D GO LEAFS GO!
  13. Well, I don't have any experience with Kistler ords, but I have two Chronarch Mg's (might pick up one more) and I LOVE THEM.
  14. Here's a few from the Great White North:
  15. Poor fella... we call opening day of any given year, New Year's Day. By april, we are fishing post spawn. My advice, move south!! ;D Heck, our opener is the first saturday in May. Ours is the 4th Saturday in June. :'(
  16. I just went and got a new muffler put on my truck......it was getting pretty loud.
