I did buy a NFC blank which was delivered within a week to the builder and I have rods that build on them. I like them a lot.
My only spiral wrapped rod was a custom NFC I had built and then broke due to panic from an alligator potentially eating a bass that I caught.
I liked it a lot. I want to build another and buy a...
How are the guides on these? I've seen reports of inserts falling out, but hearing from users on the forum helps. I was looking to pick one up in the future.
Keep it, the versatility is awesome. I carry a similar rod that I love, Major Craft Days 70x. I can use it for everything. It's rated 3/8-3oz but you can throw 6oz swimbaits with it if you wanted to.
Both styles here

I don't have either of these specific models, but people like the BMG a lot. They do say it's not as electric in feel as the NRX rods but still has the "It factor". I only have a 894c, but I do want...

I bought a 7'3" MH MF from a member on this forum, it is pretty versatile.
It pretty much...
Ark Catalyzer is $59.99
Someone on the site mentioned that they use the 7'3" MH for chatterbaits in the reviews.
I like floating or slow floating, working them over grass is always nice.
If they break off, you can often retrieve them, talking from experience.
You can always tune them to your liking if...
Have you tried oiling the brakes and/or inner surface of the side plate where the brakes touch?

Definitely interested in getting more feedback.

I timestamped it but for some reason it's...
Once I get back in front of my computer, I'll link a few videos.
There's a video on the hookup tackle where Kenta talks about it as well, fishing rock piles. The good thing about a lot of the Japanese videos is there's tons of content to watch and learn from. The...
Although a typo, Expired made me laugh in the title.
The LTB warranty is much better for a few bucks more.

It's for the 3.5, you'd probably want to upsize the hook to 6/0 for the 4 in
