  1. It’s not released yet but if you’re into really high end stuff, keep an eye out for the new 2021 Evergreen 6’5” Kaleido Inspirare “Big Bait Short” rated to 300gm (10.5oz). It was just announced today at the Japan expo. Will be the first rod rated that high *that I’m aware of* that uses the highest end Toray nano materials (T1100G, etc). If you own any conventional rods with T1100G you can imagine this is going to be a really really interesting big bait rod, especially as a shore rod. https://www.evergreen-fishing.com/news_html/2021products_bass.php#inspirare
  2. It definitely can. I’d say the sweet spot is like most JDM rods with that rating, 4-8 oz is most comfortable.
  3. There are two settings: line type first inside the faceplate and then the setting level on the outside. Settings are as follows: F: fluorocarbon, N: nylon, and PE: braid. And then you choose brake strength dial outside from 5, 1: least brake for metal jigs and rigs over 20g-, 2: regular weight rigs 14-20g, 3: light rigs 10-14g, 4: light finesse rigs 7-10g, and W: windy mode to cast against winds and for bulky baits like swimbaits.
  4. Would also consider trades for Luxxe Oltre or Steez Racing Design conventional tackle rods.
  5. Stealth Tackle Leaders. Great to have both the Staylok and solid ring options depending on how you want to connect specific baits (split ring or no). For pike 40-60# fluoro will minimize bite offs. 80-100# fluoro will essentially eliminate them completely. 130# and above starts to act more like a stiff leader to minimize fouling with jerkbaits etc. Enjoy.
  6. Would like to find a good SU home for this DRT gem. Text 218 838 6938 for more pictures and fastest response. $750 shipped!
  7. Sent you a PM. Rod is still available.
  8. Price reduced. $500 shipped. Let’s find this rod a new home.
  9. Thanks man! Crazy amount of traffic on this thing so far. Someone needs to step up and snag this thing! Once it’s gone, it’s gone.
  10. Selling one of my extremely rare DRT x Studio Composite “For The Beast” JDM-only rods. It’s stunningly gorgeous, pictures don’t do it justice. Carbon fiber grips with DRT varial wrap, custom reel seat, titanium guides spiral wrapped, 7’8” long, and rated Max 10oz. Rod has been fished and has cosmetic marks but is 100% solid and fishable top to bottom. Will provide additional pictures to serious offers, please no tire kickers or low ballers. PM offers or text 218 838 6938 for fastest response. If I don’t get back to you please understand you weren’t in the ballpark.
  11. Can anyone compare the freestyle action to a Triple Trout or 3:16? Also does the bait rattle?
  12. Lots of options with this bait. Anyone have any feedback or reviews? Seeing an awful lot of them changing hands lately.
  13. I should add that the custom rear grip makes this rod 7’9” and it replaces that terrible NRX reel seat with a great Fuji one. You’re right about the action, it’s an absolutely ridiculous jighook style rod with the elite NRX sensitivity. No problem launching a Hudd or Magnum a country mile.
  14. Custom one of a kind full grip green NRX 916C, professionally done by Thorne Brothers rod shop. Incredible balance and handling. $575 shipped. PM or text 218 838 6938 for fastest response.
