KLX 70MH or Dobyns 734 Champion
Dobyns are good but Kistler has them beat on sensitivity. I would choose the magnesium 3 with the Kistler sale.

What is the best brand of braid?
Try going off of diameter instead of pound rating, that is when you will find the differences between braids. For example, Seaguar smack down in 10lb is .005" diameter while sufix 832 in 10lb is .008" Sufix 10lb will actually brake around 30lb while the seaguar will brake around its stated lb rating. Another example- Check the mm differences and lb ratings going off of mm. https://www.rapala.com/sufix/braid/832-advanced-superline/832-advanced-superline/832+Advanced+Superline.html https://sufix.fishing/products/832-advanced-superline Basically I use .006" for my spinning reels and .008" for my baitcasters.

Wanted: pics of swimbait rods please
Okuma was my first swimbait rod and it worked very well for the price. I now use Dobyns chapion series swimbait rods and they work excellent. Here is the Curado 301 on a Okuma

New Bantam baitcaster
Personally I think this would be good on longer rods 7+feet, it will balance them out a bit better with the added weight of the reel. This reel will be my go to for spinnerbaits, chatterbaits and small swimbaits... Thinking GLX 893

Flies On Spinning Gear?
I drop shot two flies using a spinning rod. I usually add a streamer as the bottom fly, as for the top fly I use whatever the hatch is. I like this set-up but it does catch ton of small fish, I only use this set-up for rivers so weight depends on the current in the river.

Shimano reel oil vs Tsi 321?
I wonder if 321 would be the better way to go with ceramic bearings since it would coat the metal that the ceramic balls run on... Also where is everyone buying there tsi 321? I found some on Ebay from dadsoletackle shop and wonder if its real... https://www.ebay.com/itm/TSI-321-Specially-Formulated-Synthetic-Lubricant-Fishing-Reel-Bearing-Oil-1oz/172906031231?_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIM.MBE%26ao%3D2%26asc%3D47300%26meid%3D07677fb659d34cf08abf553aec339838%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D3%26rkt%3D6%26sd%3D401417041596&_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851

Shimano reel oil vs Tsi 321?
I been thinking about trying 321 myself, from what I have read it stays and lasts longer then any other oil and the tests that have been done are excellent.
