    IMO, the Bantam either the previous generation or the current is amongst the best designed bait casters ever... I haven't had one issue with any and I have about 30 of them. It handles heavy duty applications better than any other I have ever tried, I live in Florida: frogging, flipping, punching etc. 50-80lb braid. It handles straight flouro better than any other reel I have ever tried, worming with 15-20lb test, swimbaits 20lb test, throwing a lipless, throwing a small 1.5 squarebill on 15lb, cranking on 10-12lb. It handles better than reels that are more expensive such as a metanium, and better than cheaper reels such as a curado as you suggested. I used to have a mix match of a bunch of different reels and I switched them all to bantams, I still have a couple of Metaniums for Jerkbaiting because of the super light setups but eventually I'll replace those. I have no interest in replacing any of my bantams. I also have some Tranx 300's, Scorpion MD's and Antares MD's for straight "bigger" swimbaiting. But I will still throw smaller swimbaits like a chad shad on a bantam without any hesitation and do so often. I fish my tackle super hard year over year and they keep on kicking unlike any other I have tried. Oh finally I forgot to add, and I have confirmed and reconfirmed it, they help significantly with sensitivity. because they are a one-piece construction and not a composite material, they transfer sensitivity through your hand much better than others such as a Chronarch.

    I have the latest LDC XXH and I really really like it. It's pretty parabolic and casts incredibly smooth, like the smoothest casting rod I own. Not sure why that is but it is. However, IMO it's not truly an XXH rod, it feels amazing with a Hinkle Shad 5oz bait, but if I throw the 86 Baits Andromeda 6.2oz bait, it feels slightly over taxed, it throws it but it's at the max of it's range IMO.

    Hey guys looking for a couple of high end rods for the following applications: 2-5oz glide baits 6-12oz glide baits I was looking at the following rods, what is your opinion on these specifically if you have casted them and/or owned them only please? TS78X Baccarat: 7'8" Ex-heavy, med-fast, 20-40lb, 4-10oz TS79X Hunting Weapon: 7'9" XX-Heavy, regular taper, 20-40lb, 4-20oz, TS82X Tenchijin: 8'2" XX Heavy, regular taper, 25-45lb, 6-25oz I'm leaning to to the Baccarat and the Tenchijin, the Baccarat for the lighter applications and the Tenchijin for the heavier stuff. Or would a TS77X Casino be better for the lighter baits I mentioned? I really want the heavier rod to be able to throw from a Deps 250 to a Mother or bigger easily and not be under powered. Also, do you guys know the difference between the Baccarat and the King of Baccarat?

    Are those the wraps with the x4 clear dividers?

    I caught a 7lber that looked like that recently. In a lake that every fish is super stout and healthy looking especially the big ones, she legit had the length of an 11-12lber. IMO when this happens they are at the end of their life and just emaciated or they have been eating people's discarded/lost plastic worms and they get a blockage in their digestive tract and can't absorb nutrients properly nor defecate and end up perishing.

    My 867 falters big time with a Deps 250 and feels super uncomfortable in my hands while fishing. It makes it hard to cast accurately. When I tied the Deps 250 on the 908 it felt perfect, that rod seems to scare people because of it's super high rating and length but it is amazing with 6-7oz baits. I haven't thrown heavier baits on it so I can't say that it will handle them well without experience. IMO, the 867 is not as key of a rod as many claim, highest weight that feels ok on it despite it's rating is 4-5oz and still doesn't feel great while using it with those size baits.

    Big "Trout" Baits

    Warsaw replied to Warsaw's topic in SUTV

    Wow thanks for taking the time to weigh all of those baits. And yes I messed up and put this in the wrong forum, if a moderator can move it that would be awesome.

    Big "Trout" Baits

    Warsaw posted a topic in SUTV

    Hey guys, my swimbait journey keeps expanding and I had a couple of questions regarding the bigger trout baits. I'm looking into getting a Mother, Hinkle trout and probably a KGB King and a 3:16 Beast. Are there any others of the magnum sized baits that are the main recommendations? Question: What do the Hinkle trout's normally go for? Most guys seem to post that they want you to PM them a price when they come up. Also, I know the Mother is 10.5oz as advertised, how heavy is the Hinkle? I've been throwing a Deps 250 and Andromeda on a Dobyns 908 which feel awesome on that rod, but want to make sure that this rod will throw those baits equally well or should I pick up another stick? I got the latest XXH LDC and it seems to be maxed out on those 6oz baits, I've got other 3-8oz rods that feel like they are over taxed on a 6oz bait, so I would want to make sure that I have a rod that can toss these well. I don't skimp on tackle that I need but also don't want to buy a rod that's not heavy enough because I've got plenty of rods in the H/XH range.

    How did you get a 95mm Curado K Handle I saw that they were not in the Shimano website?
  22. Warsaw
    Is it a Chad or a 7” TSG?
  23. Warsaw
    LMK if you change your mind and would sell the workhorse.

    You guys that have upgraded the handles on your reel to 100mm, 110mm and 120mm, which do you prefer and why. Do you prefer a smaller one for "lighter rods" with smaller baits say under 3oz and longer for bigger baits? or does it matter? Just a thought Any comments you can think of? I've been fishing mainly stock handles on my Tranx and other reels and I am intrigued by the bigger handles like Gomexus and others. On my smaller baits I am throwing them on stock HG model Bantam's and I feel like the handle length is a little too compact. BTW, I am talking all swimtbaits such as 6-8" paddletail swimbaits and glidebaits in the whole range of sizes from 2-8 oz. Thanks for any input!

    How much would you want for it straight sale shipped?
