OOOOOOR (you cant just have one)

 

Dobyns Champion Extreme 745 and a Shimano Core


fishing user avatarJrob78 reply : 

Custom rod built on a NFC HM blank with a 2014 Steez LTD SV TN.


fishing user avatarbootytrain reply : 

Calais DC and Shimano/Jackall Poison Ultima


fishing user avatarTywithay reply : 

I'd buy a Steez Limited SV and another Edge Mag Bass, or a Shimano Antares HG and Megabass Destroyer Phase III.


fishing user avatarBrian Needham reply : 

already have it:

 

Dobyns DX paired with a Core 50.

 

anything more expensive is wasting money, LOL.

I have this too. I dont think I really want anything else.


fishing user avatarnew2BC4bass reply : 

I've never looked at expensive rods or reels.  What would be the point?  Would have to do some research.  Seems like a lot of people like their Megabass rods.  DC reels are loved by many, but I'd probably lean towards one of the very high end Daiwas..


fishing user avatarGrantman83 reply : 

Can I just customize a rare reel ( actually in the process with pics to follow)?

Otherwise, I would have to go the megabass way with a zonda reel and nrx rod.

Already have a bunch of customized reels and dx's but no boat. That's probably where my money should go


fishing user avatarJohn G reply : 

I would buy a Shimano Antares DC7-LV and match it up with a Shimano Poison Glorious rod.


fishing user avatarmjseverson24 reply : 

Quantum tour MG, with a shimano cumara. or the same reel with falcon cara t7 micro... not the most expensive combo, but its very nice and light, looks like a joy to fish with...

fishing user avatarHooligan reply : 

Pretty much what I always do.  I might make exception, but I doubt it.  I do like my Metanium reels...


fishing user avatarJaiden reply : 

Core 100MG7 on a DX 744C. Next setup will hopefully be similar to this...

^^^ What these guys said!!!


fishing user avatarJ Francho reply : 

Money no object? Custom rod to my specs. The reel? Let's just say a lot of my money would end up in Japan.


fishing user avatarbass1980 reply : 

Megabass reel, megabass rod, megabass lure....do they make megabass fishing line? Sadly money is an object but one day........

Yes, but get something good.  Not Megabass.  Kureha or something in that class.  (R18 is decent, but there's better...)


fishing user avatarbmlum415 reply : 

Hmm, dobyns zayta 754(I know they're not out yet, I've seen and felt them and they are worth the wait) with a shimano Antares hg or a daiwa steez ltd sv tn.


fishing user avatarprjavelin reply : 

If money was not a problem I would buy an ugly stick 6' spinning ML paired with a zebco and 20 pound vanish fished with the guides up like a baitcaster


fishing user avatarZhouNi reply : 

zebco 33 with a 10lb of on the end lol


fishing user avatarBankbeater reply : 

Tough question, but if money were no problem, then I wouldn't stop at one rig.  I'd get all new stuff.

.

I was going to say the Zayta at first but since they got pushed back I chose the NRX. I cannot wait for the Zayta

I was a bit bummed when I heard they were pushed back but since I've seen and handled the zayta,they're worth the wait. It's an amazing rod and I feel it's worth the price and wait.
fishing user avatarthehooligan reply : 

Love my cumulus/Aldebaran, and cumara/ stella combos.

I think the only thing left I want is another conquest, and to try an evergreen and megabass rod.

Recently sold my motorcycle and have been debating on pulling the pre order gun on this reel! I keep thinking of all the other goodies I could buy for that price though. Truly a sweet looking reel.


fishing user avatarMCS reply : 

A quantum tour mg 7.0:1 mounted on a phenix recon 2 7'-1" MH.


fishing user avatarWIGuide reply : 

I'd go full on Xtreme. St. Croix Legend Extreme paired up with a Revo MGXtreme that will be customized.


fishing user avatarjignfule reply : 

Antares and  NRX (maybe the optional gold plated version)
