Swimbait reel suggestions
I’ve caught 6’ sharks on ugly stiks and Abu 6500 with mono. Surely this could do It.

Yeah I think I’ll get the lexa 300 and use that combo for big swimbaits and for sharks/tarpon next time I go to Florida. What say you?

Sorry I was looking at the price of the Tranx 150 ($209). The Lexa HD 300 is looking more and more like the reel I want. Especially with the power handle.

Im not sure this huge chunk of plastic I was throwing was very aerodynamic.

The US Tranx 300 is less expensive than even the JDM Tat 300. Might go with It.

Current "best" Daiwa Swimbait Reel?
All I know is, when I go to a big bait, unless I’m lightly lobbing It which isn’t good distance, even on 20 setting, the spool over runs. This was a probably 3oz bait. Maybe 2.5. No problems casting smaller. The rod is a dobyns Fury 795sb. Rated 1-5 oz.

Someone in the other thread said the weight of my bait shouldn’t cause backlashes. I don’t know. All I know is when I throw bigger baits I can put It all the way to 20 on the brakes and It still overruns if I cast any harder than a lob. My rod is a Dobyns Fury 795sb. Is there a JDM version of the Tranx for cheaper than the US model?

I don’t know exact weight but this was a 7” smashtech.

My Tatula 150p couldn’t cut It when I stepped up to bigger swimbaits. So it’s going back to deep crank duties and I’m getting a new reel. I like the Tatula 300 and can get It on Digitaka for about $220. However, I’m open to other reels in that price range. Just don’t know what’s out there. Any ideas?

Which rod to choose for topwater spook fishing?
I guess I’m the odd ball. My jerkbait/light topwater rod is not even close to my spook rod. I use a Dobyns 734c for spooks and buzzbaits.

Identify these 90s plastics?
Those were the bomb to have back in about 94 when I was 9. Never caught anything on them but thought I was something getting them for Christmas.

Broke Lews rod, am I screwed?
I think sometimes people just misuse the word warranty for replacement policy and then people get really angry about It. Lol

Broke Lews rod, am I screwed?
If a manufacturer offers a replacement policy at a fee, which I don’t know if Lews does or not, are you guys saying you wouldn’t take advantage of that?
