  1. To add to the Chaos... left or right handed spinning reels ? or Both sides
  2. Hmmm dont see the T-WING on these
  3. Yes Around here we fish for snakehead in vegetation and sometimes exposed branches. I replace Braid (30-50lbs) usually twice a year depending on the condition of the braid after the 2nd turn over. Inspect for fraying regularly.
  4. check out the reel test channel on youtube he already did a comparison vs the 70 and a 50
  5. curado 70 XG. Mine is a 71XG and its my frogging, flipping/pitching reel. Install 4 bearings on the knobs (2 ea) and if you like 1 on the levelwind worm gear.
  6. I got them from a local RC car shop or a local bearing supplier depending on the size.
  7. Most of guys here use them for inshore fishing for Groupers
  8. you can also swap the bushing with a 4x7x2.5 bearing Part#5334 http://fish.shimano.com/media/fishing/shimano/sac/images/schematics/Low_Profile_Baitcasting/Current_Models/Curado_70/16CU70HG_v1_m56577569831025900.pdf
  9. correct also same for the bushing on the worm gear
  10. Thanx MickD, I aligned it to the rest of the guides but It aint pretty :P. there are a few flat spots and a rough feeling where i applied pressure to align it. I like to totally replace it to avoid any possible issues on the field (Line knicks etc). OD is around 6-7mm based from a small ruler and poor eye sight (cant find my calipers grrr). Will try to get a clear picture tonight but its similar to the guide on my GLX rods just a darker frame
  11. Need help from the Rod Builders. I like to confirm the model and size for a shimano casting rod. One of the guides got bent (not sure how it happened) I can replace it myself but need the right guide model/size. My rod is a 2pc model Shimano Deportivo casting rod (JDM). According to the specs it uses SIC with stainless frame. The guide is the 3rd guide from the bottom if the 2 pcs are connected. The inner diameter (hole) is about 5-6mm. TIA
