YepLatest projectBetter believe i say a prayer everytime i ship a rod !! PVC and usps 2-day priority is the only way i roll. The last few mb x7's and poison ultima i sold had me stressed for days...If this is in reference to the $300 curado, hell no, lolMy last finesse setup, building a new one... Megabass Super Criffhanger X7 6'3L Megabass Zonda 68L Floroclear 8lbNice mike, can't wait for pics.In my hands, the nrx, ultima, and x7 destroyer feel so close it comes down to what you prefer in length/tapers. As others have said, the nrx is like the benchmark for bottom contact fishing. May not be anywhere near as balanced or look as good as a megabass/Jackall rod, but it sure gets the job done. I wouldn't hesitate to fish one but I rarely fish bottom contact.The yumeya 32mm magnesium spool is great. Drops right in. 1/8th plastics to 1/4oz hardbaits is where it excels. Also being black, it matches all the 50 reels great...It's a finesse reel, holds the perfect amount of 8-12lb mono.16 bfs xg, awesome reel. Got me a new pb crappie, 16 inch, 2.10lbsSpinning reels - Shimano Casting - shimano, megabass, daiwa, and old abu rounders Pretty much a shimano nut that ventures over to megabass once a year...Mike, forgot your a rightyOuch, did you get one ?I would also just put a tip on, 5 minute job. Awesome deal on that rod man.The brake systems are different through all the daiwa reels as well. I had better performance with a steez sv105 spool in a td ito then in an IS71. I think the IS had a stronger brake profile and I was getting less distance.Sorry Sam, I'd be looking for a new reel guy after that statement, lol.Nice 17" Rainbow today2500/3000 for a 7'2 rodLike everyone else has mentioned, use an existing reel and drop a finesse spool/bearings in. Or buy a dedicated bfs reel. Best I've used out of the box is the bfs xg limited and ss air. The abu lt/ltx/ltz are also great choices if you prefer abu Garcia. Bfs can get addicting, I know it was a personal goal to see how proficient I could get casting extremely light rigs down to 2 grams.Nice scoreThe rotor shouldn't be touching the magnet...
