I sold my LTD and the next day grabbed this one after i regretted putting the LTD up for sale. Hate the knobs, but that's an easy fix! Oh and got a heck of a deal on it too!!

Shimano on a Daiwa...Because I can

 

I've been using a Core 100 on my dock skipping rod for a while (and a Curado 100B prior) but wanted to try something a little different so I treated myself to this Scorpion DC.  Figured I should pick one up before they are gone, they won't be around forever...Right?

 

-Shimano Scorpion DC 6.3

-Gen1 Daiwa Zillion, 6'9" MH/XF

 

Finally finished up a few near identical twins!

Awesome twins!!!! A dual headed monster if you will.

Put the Daiwa PXL-R on my new LTB 68MXF. I added blue dress up parts from Hedgehog Studios.

And, as shown in a previous post, my new dropshot setup. Love this combo so much!

Awesome job!Those look great!

How do you like the Helium3 vs the NRX? 

Well, given the price difference and what I paid for each they are both great buys. The NRX is a much better rod in my opinion and has greater feel. The H3 is a good buy when they are on sale for around $200. My biggest gripe is that the raw or unfinished blanks on the H3 are more prone to scratches even when used gently.

Keitechs have been killin it for me lately...

I'm happy cause the conquest is finally here.

I'm not happy cause it was hit by custom and stuck there for two weeks. 

I'm still happy cause when I picked it up today they didn't charge me anything even I saw the red custom tape on the box.

Still waiting for the livre handle nut. Carbon handle just doesn't look right on conquest.

That's the Livre handle correct? I've never seen it in that color only the gunmetal and gold blue or red which I hate. That looks like all gunmetal, anyone know where I can find one in this color?

Seeing that jig tied onto your beautiful setup is bringing tears to my eyes, its been so long since I have bass fished but tomorrow it will happen!!!

Some things I've been stocking here in El Paso, for home (Florida). Some of my topwater selection, which are my favorite baits, and an overview of pretty much everything I got here. I designated a drawer full of stuff. Hope someone enjoyed the pics. Lol. 

Just got a MH/F Volkey, and added my Fuego to it. Fished with it right after work during the last 30 minutes of sunlight that remained. It's the 2 piece version that I picked up in the flea market from pondasassin.

The finish on these rods is really nice! I can understand all the buzz about them as of late here with many of the members!

Good looking combo. The build quality is nice. You got a steal on that one also. I'm surprised it lasted as long as it did. I had the 7' mh/f blc model for a minute. I had to sell it because it I didn't like it. Definitely a decent $150 rod.

And I have it now

And I have it now

You have a lot of my things hahaha

I always loved the clean looks of those Zillion sticks and I think they fish pretty well too.  Never understood why or how they didn't get more popular...  I have the 7-footer with a Zillion reel for my jig duty but your combo is pretty fine-lookin' too

d**n son you've gone all out! How are you liking the LTD?

I wish I could say I've fished it!! I'm currently in San Diego at Recruiter's School so it's waiting for me at my folks place. Sort of an early Christmas present from myself that the wife doesn't know about...

Haha

Very nice John. What line are you using on each setup ?

Thank you Matt! 7# Sniper FC on all three setups. It has everything that I look for in a FC. Affordable, easy to manage with no line treatment and sensitive.
