yeah, I was thinking maybe smallmouth fishing, but again I kind of already have that setup.

 

What is the IPT for the 6.8 gear ratio?

I think it's 26" IPT.

Maybe I need a second one.

I saw this morning that they are out of righties. This guarantees that I will not be getting one.

I'm battling the monkey on this one. It might go 16 rounds. He's waiting for me to tire out.

You're just wasting time.  You know it's going to happen....

Maybe not. I keep looking at the ss sv.

This is the exact same thing happening in my brain.

I already have a px68 that I've upgraded the drag and spool bearings on. Plus added the bearing to the worm gear and the knobs. It'd a Pxr basically other than the clicking drag and some cosmetics.I like it a lot but hear great things about the sv and it's the same price.

Ah...those have caught my eye too.  Very nice!

I hear you, buddy. Part of me says to get the SS SV to continue on with my collection,but the other part of me loves my PXL-R so much it says to get another.

Haha same exact boat.

Ugh, I should have turned off the notifications from this thread.  Thanks guys, I feel poorness coming on..

I'm glad they sold out of righties. I've had 2 in my cart all week.

The Bait Monkey KO'd me in the third round.  The sneaky little son of a gun isn't very big, but he's fast...

 

My new Pixy is on the way.  I think it will sit well on my Kistler KLX finesse rod.  

 

Tight lines,

Bob

This is my exact set up...can't wait to catch some fish with it.

Same here... it's going to be l-o-n-g wait!

 

Happy holidays,

Got mine last week......gonna be a long winter

Because the bait monkey is cruel and unusual and he wants me to be single.

Keep your eyes open. I just picked up a PX-R for a little over $50 out of pocket after gift cards and discounts. It was listed as a right handed reel in a left handed box and therefore knocked down another $20!

Well the monkey won. I got snaked on the ss sv at the last second so I returned the favor and snaked someone on another px68l.

^ I thought you might get the PX-R

I probably should have. I was just in a buying mood I guess. I'll end up selling this before I even use it. April is far away and I really want an sv.

I´ve been thinking about this reel in detail, ok, a 200 dollars discount is a reallly good discount, bordering AWSOM !, but ..... as much as I love Pixies, seriously I doubt the PX-R is as good as a SS SV which BTW cost pretty much the same the PX-R costs, with added benefits: you have several gear ratios avalable in the SS and you can purchase an extra SV spool with different depth.

Id take a pixy/px-r all day long over any of the ss platforms. Dont get me wrong, the sv spools are sweet, but the reels feel like a cheap plastic zaion version of a steez. The pixy is a way more solid reel. On the other hand, a td-z/steez with sv spool is pretty amazing...
