Dream Combo

Baitcast: Strait from the set of Star Trek, my dream baitcast combo would be the Shimano Antares caster with the with some sort of a white custom rod (ridiculously expensive, of course.) For an actual production rod, the Daiwa Steez Compile is pretty cool. Price: $1200+

Spinning: Shimano Stella FI reel with a G. Loomis NRX rod. Price: 1300+

Man, that'd be a killer wading setup for smallmouth where I live.

 

Maybe one day...... :drool1:

My dream combo has changed a bit since the last time tere was a Thread like this one.

 

Right now, one of the combos that I am using is a Conquest 50/NRX802C. That is a dream combo in itself but I am very tempted to buy an Aldebaran MG7 for the NRX802C. I am mainly just curious what it would feel like to fish with a combo that weighs around 9oz. It would also be just a tad over $650.00 and in the world of dream combos, is very reasonable!

Diawa steez ex casting reel w/ megabass destroyer evoluzion!...

As a lightweight junkie, when you fish with a really light combo it can sometimes be really hard going back, lol. My cumulus/bfs xg combo comes out to about 7.5oz's and I never wanna put it down, haha.

The conquest probably looks pretty good on the nrx too, mine rotates between a 1st gen cumara and legend elite...

That Cumulus/BFS XG must be a dream to fish with! As much as I love the Conquest 50, there is just as much love for the Shimano 50 size low profiles and the little Aldebaran MG7 on the NRX would be the complete package of lightweight, palmability and increased IPT for bottom contact apps.

 

I know what you mean about not wanting to go back when using lighter weight gear. I was using my Antares HG and MBR844GLX over the weekend and for me, it was big and heavy compared to the Conquest 50/NRX802C combo that I have been using lately. I wasn't thrilled at all while using it. So unthrilled I was that I listed my Antares HG on eBay today and the 844 isn't far behind. The funds from the sale will be used for another NRX802C.
