Did you watch the video? There were big schools of crappies and even found a christmas tree in forward view. But will try that today and see what my results are.

There was no noticeable difference under different palette in the outing I was in. I am going out o
To a rocky spot tmrw to see if it will see better.

I 3d printed a bracket at 20degree. Did some testing and here are the results. Need to do some more tweaking and more time on the ice. Lmk what you guys think.

I haven't bought any rainshadows regardless of the model, they all are listed around 2.5-3.5oz for casting blanks. Even the eternity blanks are very heavy for the money you're paying. I like to stay...

theres a youtube video comparing the weight of the rings alone. there was like 4 rings on the torzite vs one on the sic. weight is definitely a factor. when it comes to the running guides, it...

after seeing youtube videos, i have been slowly switching over to all torzite guides for my personal rods. that's why we go customs right. build the rod to how we want it(how the customers want...

I never talk my customers out of anything. the guys wanting torzites are the same guys with 20 nrx rods, even had a guy with 5 megabass arms challenge($1000 each) rods asked me to build him one....

The trophy isn't a plus so the holes are quite small. I 3d printed my own plugs. I will play with it this weekend. Just sucks with the weeds getting stuck on the prop shaft when in very weeded areas...

On the ones I've built, the action runs slower than i like. Ive since been building on phenix ultra mbx blanks. Very crisp and has a very fast tip despite it being advertise as fast.

I have a St. Croix 5S76MLXF-B. 1/8-3/8oz. I love the power and extra fast tip for fishing the smallies here at mil lacs.

you'll love the ultra mbx. the actions are true to spec vs the M1 that is a a step slower in action than listed.

Yes, you would just have to clean up the middle part and refinish it with epoxy. I would side on the side of two new pieces.

Any good rod builder can do the job. I've done multiple repairs on steez rods. That said I would see if you can find someone locally.

i've broken two rods myself for mhx, and each time zero hassle with the warranty replacement. if you glued up the seats real good you are sol same for the grips as well.

im not sure really. it was just a client had wanted. overall feel it does feel very nice and solid in which i would presume similar to cork or eva.

Same here but the guy mostly holds the rod above the reel seat. Hence the extra long fore grip

You would have to replace the reel seat. Use dremel and a steady hand to cut it out. After that, you would have to them strip off as many gudes as needed to put a new seat on

Just finished a pair of custom rods. The setups are as follows

spinning:
BLank:Hydra sj873
Guides: Fuji k concept titanium alconite
Recoil micro guides
seat: alps
