Thank you! Would you say the okuma is more sensitive/crisper than the champion extreme? I’m thinking of getting a new senko rod and was planning on getting a champion extreme 743, but if the okuma x is more sensitive than it seems like a no brainer. How’s the balance on the okuma compared to Dobyn’s?

How does the sensitivity compare to other rods? What would you compare it to?

Thank you!

Really! So are you saying they’re roughly equal? Or is the X-series more sensitive? Are you talking about the champion extreme HP or the older champion extreme? Oh and what models of each are you comparing? Thank you so much! How does the X series compare to various st Croix and kistler rods?

Any pics of the slim zako compared to the normal zako?

Darn. I’m really interested in these rods but I’m having a hard time finding anyone who has experience with the okuma and the Dobyn’s. I just want to make sure the okuma isn’t a downgrade compared to the Dobyn’s champ extreme.

Where do you get the Japanese assemblies?

Thank you! How is the action compared to the Ned bomb? I almost exclusively use the spunk shad but the Ned bomb does look interesting.

Anybody?

Ouch! I’m really curious how these compare sensitivity wise to the steez ags.

Do you have any experience with the Dobyn’s champion extreme? I’m really curious how the sensitivity on the Okuma x compares to the Dobyn’s champion extreme.

Looking forward to hear what you think about the real control rod!

Thanks! Can’t wait to watch later!

Anyone know how the Ned bomb compares to the spunk shad?

Get it on the water yet?

Are you saying that rapala bait continually works anywhere in FL?

I like that. What is it?

Anyone able to compare these to the Dobyn’s champion extreme hp?

I made a thread about this rod a couple months back. Not many people seem to have them. Obviously if you buy from Japan they’re much cheaper. About half price. https://www.bassresource.com/bass-fishing-forums/topic/264526-daiwa-steez-real-control-rods/ Which model do you have?

I want to try out some swim baits but as of right now all I have are soft plastic swim baits.

Wow! That’s a lot of damage! Never seen anything like that before.

Interesting. Thanks for the info!

Wow! I wouldn’t have guessed it was a 3 dollar Walmart lure! I’ll be interested to hear how the action is when you get a chance to fish them.

Gills are a bit different now that I’m looking at them next to each other. It’s interesting. Sort of a copy of the evergreen with the paint job of the 6th sense. Is it something from bass pro or cabela’s?

Yeah, they do have a lot of great color choices.
