aik gotten your new rod? i've booked a 10-16 basspara from ss2 tackle as well....still considering whether to sapu the citica 200e or not lol

Yup. Ul setup to play with the Pb in sj lake. My paired reel is making the setup slightly heavier than I would have preferred but it gives me some versatility as well. It's a 2500 series reel.

You can never go wrong with a major craft rod.. I just love jdm products. Haha..

most of red hot's second hand products are actually sourced in japan so basically its imported just that its not new.

If you wanna get new megabass products you can go to the ss4 tackle shop but i forgot what is the name addi. they are doing a promo for their heavier poundage major craft slicer 2 weeks back when i was there. Normal price for 8-14lbs is going for 400 plus while those promo ones are just around 350-ish.

Btw any affordable (preferrably less than 400) bc reels that is less than 200g to intro?

Nah red hot dont carry those unless its second hand (usually sold to them by customers)
THink Rory is right, if you have that budget for those brands, why not customise?
Extreme Anglerz in SS3 or theres anohter one in Klang K.Ming does rod building and customization.

I can teach you how to rod bind yourself.. smile.gif

I have been rod building like 4~5 years ago

Cant find any 200g and below or 7oz for RM400
Found this on Mudah tho.

http://www.mudah.my/Daiwa+US+Advantage+Reel-14922510.htm

Ideal for cranking

Even Abu ProMax 2 is about 220g (8.60z)

Thanks Vioxmonsta,

I was searching for evildonkey. I think I've spent enough on fishing gears for the moment. Need to chillax a bit and appreciate what i already have. Think the bluemax you have, need to sell below 100 bucks la. u lend me your Daiwan US Avantage also no point, I got no BC rod lol

Another choice for Evildonkey, below 400 BC 210g - Team Seahawk infinity Bass II. THink SS2 got 1 pc left, did you check it out ?

Yeah I didnt realised that your patriarch wasnt the new MG series. But as you mentioned, that spec with that price,.. so damn dai and worth it la. THink below 200g 400 budget can be a bit susah, Abu Revo SX ady RM450.

What rod rating did you matched it to?

Being at 8oz, perhaps you may want to match the reel with a fast tapered rod. Perhaps 70:30 type. It would feel stronger and robust.

Bro Hackwire,
Each shop has it's own specialty and brands they carry.

Do share with us, what you are seeking for and am sure our fellow LYN Angler here would be able to help smile.gif

i've searched and the cheapest is 520 and i saw another revo elite GB for 300 plus but i think the condition is quite bad coz i can see obvious scratches on the reel even on such low res pix.

are those sp sample pack? i only saw 1 in each pack.
