Were they really that bad?

Yeah although I'm a fan of Oliver, never trust pro staff

30lb? I wouldnt dare go under 50 for jigs.

Thats crazy

Can you elaborate? I havent had any problems with mine

The newer dx rods are real good, in fact i ordered another one. I receive it today. For the price you cany go wrong

Can you give me the name of that knot? Does it go through guides easy?

User error? Im not an expert tying knots but braid should not do this. I use pp only and have never had this problem. Probably a bad batch. Edit. I had not payed attention to the knot. I think that is the problem here. You are damaging the line with that knot. And scissors gotta be sharp too

I dont like bashing before trying something but they look pretty bad

I just ordered the 7ft heavy, hope it fishes like my other aird x rods

Id get a daiwa combo, airdx and a ebay fuego ct.

I ordered 2 reels and 3 rods in an impulse buy this week, should arrive tuesday

Save some money and just get the slx combo. Frogs dont require a lot of science

25 big game for baits over 4oz 20 big game for smaller Dont over think it, i use braid but its not needed

Happened on my saharas also, all 3 of my saharas. Removed it and was fine, although every once in a while my bail would close. Wo t buy saharas now because of that

Fuego ct will not handle baits over 3.5 oz efficiently

Daiwa dxsb rod $109 Daiwa millionaire utd reel $50 on ebay Gets the job done

They fish the same honestly, plus i rather have more in the boat so my nephew and son can use also

Im broke and bought 5 of the 1 dollar spinnerbaits at walmart. Crushed them yesterday

Im thinking a modfast taper medium heavy, the modfast taper helps it cast smaller lure and the medium fast power helps it in heavy cover. Out of all the rods if used the most versatile was falcon bucoo modfast medium heavy. That rod could do anything, it sadly broke after being stepped on

I also have 3 of the newer version, i have never had a problem with them

Shimano sedona or sahara, although i have a daiwa revros that i love

I always thought about buying a soft rifle case to carry my 2 peice rods when i ride my bike to the river but i wonder if a cop sees me would he pull me over to do a "routine" stop? Im mexican

I rather not use a leader but im not going to cut off a leader if its already tied on. I use 1 rod for many applications

If daiwa i headed in that direction im gonna go back to shimano
