    Good job on the video and you have some interesting thoughts. But the proof is in the pudding. How about getting a couple of fish (dead of course) jamming a baited hook in their mouths and pulling the line. I mean it's great to have a theory but how about actually testing it? Maybe we can get that Project Farm guy to make some rubber fish and test it properly. I'd be interested to know what kind of if hook commercial longliners use, I know they use the "No knot" snell but do they use it on a straight shank circle?

    I see the sedona saharas have same diameter spool on the 1000 and 2000S size. 42mm, just less line on the 2000S, which is stupid, I prefer more line much more flexible as you can cast more line out when need to, the 2000S would reach all the way to no line and possibly snap and loose all line and hook sinker if I cast little harder.

      Sedona-Sahara - good one : ). I used to think that many years ago, but i changed my mind, and so will you, one day. You really don't need more than 100 feet of line when u fish, not 100 meters.. When u fish Ultralight anyway.

      Can u even find that rod? I feel guilty recommending such a crazy expensive rod. I don't want to tease people. But for me its totally worth it, even if it sits on the wall the rest of my life. Your presso air ags might be more sensitive that this rod. This rod is not about sensitivity. The blank has some new technology where it bends down all the way to the handle. I often say that, but this one really does. If you are attracted to Sensitivity, you will be disapointed. I love this rod because of the aesthetics, and because of the joy i get fighting fish with it... I will make another video with it these days and talk more about it.

      I honestly cannot pick between these specific reels. Even the colors are the same. They are all amazing. But i think the Soare is cheaper, so i would probably get it for the lower price, but the Presso reels have the lowest resistance of any Daiwa currently and have very consistent quality

      Just buy both. This one is so cheap. The yamaga blanks is a bigger rod, heavier power. It can be used for larger lures.

    Hi Victor, I know you mainly fish UL, but have you ever used weights on the rod butt to balance a rod? If you have, would you ever consider making a video on it?

    • @ifishcatfish
      @ifishcatfish 4 дні тому

      Once i literally glued a quarter to the butt of a rod. I just glued it with marine glue, thats it : ) I sold that rod. Now i fish pretty much only Japanese rods and i haven't found one that much out of balance that i want to glue quarters to it. A quarter will be enough to make a difference, because its all the way at the end of the rod. But manufacturers test for these things and i would refrain from doing this on rods over $100

    Try mavllos plume, the rod taper makes it extremely comfortable

      Haven't fished either rod but it looks like the Plume has a much different taper with a thicker butt section and a solid tip.

    I love mine. I jumped on it just as soon as I got recon on it. Only thing i added was Eva foam to the openings in the reel seat for comfort. I don’t feel it has affected the sensitivity. I paired it with 2000s-p 23 legalis.

      no, that's not where sensitivity comes from .. I bet u can sell it next year for a lot more than u paid for it : ) Like the eradicators..

    Great floats! I was wondering if the fixed floats could work with thinner line like .128? Would I have to downsize on the surgical tubing to get the float to stay put?

    • @ifishcatfish
      @ifishcatfish 4 дні тому

      They will DEFINITELY work! But thin line will get you wrapped up around the guides and other issues. By the way i have spare tubing on the website. You can add one extra piece if need be, but these pieces are TIGHT even without line, so u r good

      Lol- Victor mentioned it to me and I found it and bought the exact one. It does have a very nice parabolic curve but still enough power to land big trout up to 18" - 22." I primarily use .6 - .8 Varivas super trout braid with 2.5 fluorocarbon 36" - 40" leader. The casting ability is crisp and sharp. Recovery is pretty fast too! I'm using it for trout in NC rivers with micro spoons. It's perfect due to the UL power and parabolic action. I hardly miss any trout at all!

    I had my eyes on this rod for a while. Just ordered one from a rakuten japan vendor I used before ... I am going to pair it with my 19 BALLISTIC FW LT 1000S-P spooled with 2.3 lb varivas ester and use it for every sort of lures under 2.5 g: jigs, spoon, crankbait etc. For 2.5g above I'll keep on using my professor 73 All-Range TZ nano. Now I have to carry 3 rods on my paddleboard lol (ie daiwa presso float rig too)
