Charlie can you show how you are putting the gold blade on the chatterbait? Thanks sir
@@Jpeace530 I don't really show it but I explain how I switch them out at the 17 minute Mark of this video but yeah next time I do a video I'll show it th-cam.com/users/liveyYI5rCQAHlQ?si=tptOtuiRLmb7oUpf
Have you found any of thier stores to have good crankbaits that run in the 8 to 15 ft ranges. So many there seem to run more shallow.
New sub from my channel to yours. Great vid regardless of the of the pixelation.
@@LLDWITHJ thanks
Are you getting the Alde DC when its out?
@@SILKYSMOOTH30FPS no I don't like the looks of that platform.. had the aldeberan bfs and sold it
@@bassnbonsai Yea, but it mainly looked bad because of that palming side plate. Now that side plate has changed, and the frame looks much more normal.
@SILKYSMOOTH30FPS that and the front just looks unfinished to me.. just the color and the front having the missing gaps throws the whole thing off.. I really wish they would have used the 70 frame for the aldeberan.. the scorpion and curado 70 and bfs reels Palm and look better to me... If they would have made that reel in magnesium and added the braking systems of the New reels I'd definitely consider getting both... I'd even pick the older aldeberan frames over the new one.. 50e is still a better looking platform just needed dropped down ever so slightly
Was jus tellin myself, I'm not a Shimano, fanboy. Than i realized i was wearin a Shimano hat and hoodie😂😂
Bonsia.. Your not getting rid of any of ur damn steez.. im gonna order tht metanium dc than
You think the gen 3 gflex binary trigger will work in the dagger with a gen 5 slide on it
Nice video showing what the power curve can do. You can tire out a fish faster than some people think with lots of rod bend. The fish swims a further distance between surges. I love seeing people really getting the sport out of these fish. I have always used small snaps during all my years of ultralight fishing, you can switch lures very quickly and on some lures, you get better action than tying directly to the lure (depends on whether the lure comes with a split ring attached already). You would think more people would be demanding more light action baitcasting rods after seeing this - so much more fun than fishing with a heavy action rod like the ones that dominate our tackle stores. My kind of fishing (I use UL spinning mostly, but just bought a couple BFS outfits), thanks for sharing.
@@barry4fish yes the average person feels the need to crank em in as fast as possible for some reason.. tournament syndrome I guess...
THE SPOOL is Amazing i’ve been using it for trout & crappie its bombs 1/16 amazingly!! with brakes on 0.
I didn’t like the new Steez out of the box. Replacing the spool tension knob with a zero adjuster leaves you at the mercy of the factory setting and the casting distance was not as great compared to the Steez or Steez limited. The Steez CT SV is still my favorite when placed on a shimano Poison Adrena medium 6’11 medium plus or on a Steez moving bait special.
@@ArmyofOne-14x I'm sure there's a way to adjust it or replace with a different nut maybe.. if it has all the slop taken out I might leave it alone but I don't like any side to side play at all and to tight can definitely reduce casting distances... I always fine tune my reels even the zero adjustment ones.. not to mention later on down the road aftermarket spools will definitely have different tolerances on the spool shaft length..
@@bassnbonsaiIf you figure out a way to adjust please post a short clip.
@ArmyofOne-14x ok
No washer under the zero adjuster cap and it’s just the pinion gear and plastic shim?
The new steez is indeed ridiculous, but Daiwa doesn't allow me to buy it because the removed the zero adjuster, and aren't using 34mm spools so i could swap it with all my older custom 34mm spools. Really stupid of Daiwa tbh. And no, Yuki Ito was never working for Daiwa. All they did is order Daiwa reels on a discount, pimp them up, and sell em under the megabass brand. Original steez are legendary. I would take them over the 2016 TW steez any day. You find one in clean condition, install a new gear set, and its just an amazing reel all around. Just like the TDZ and the old Alphas, a ton of people are still using them. You put a boost spool in the og steez, and it casts amazingly. You could also get an OG steez and make a comparison video between all the generations. You'll be surprised by how good the older steez are to this day (assuming you get one in good condition)
@@SILKYSMOOTH30FPS I'm assuming they're pushing for more finesse on the magnesium reel and leaving the aluminum the same size for the line capacity.. hoping to sell more reels of each if they're completely different .. I'm wandering if they'll keep the ct around after the limited version.. usually when a limited hits it's the end of the line for that model
@@bassnbonsai Yup, limiteds are made to get rid of parts left at the warehouse, so its guaranteed to be the last using the frame.
What about p5 dark sleeper for one of ur steez lmt
@@brewtankoutdoors1432 that's one of the p5 I've been debating on
Brand new still has the plastic on it.. let me know
@@brewtankoutdoors1432 will I keep talking myself out of it because it's too long really
I laugh at your pronunciation of Teton but you might be right, I was annunciating the word like the mountain range.
@@barry4fish yes I've heard it pronounced several different ways.. tea ton ... te ton .. tea tun.. min comes out tet' n
The Ugly Stick rods are tough but really heavy, and not very enjoyable to fish with if you are used to regular UL rods. Over 20 years ago, Shakespeare offered some smaller, lighter Ugly Stick rods that were pretty good, but those have been gone from their lineup for a long time. This rod you are using looks more fun, similar to the Handing Magic L rods which are nice too. Love to see that rod bend!
Should not have to change magnets on a new reel .
I think it’s the distortion is coming from your phone. But still good content.
@@MrTmonty23 thanks
Echelon jest Chorwacki, stąd oznaczenia HS :)
So I have a new dagger micro and would like to change the shoe as well. Where is the best place to purchase said shoe ? You mentioned a bunch of different ones but no links or recommendations. Please help a fellow shooter out. Thanks sir.
@@outdoororiginal4364 id suggest starting on eBay
Check the Studio Composite, Deps and LIVRE handles. They look as good, or better than DRT's stuff. And LIVRE are the ones making the handles for DRT btw.
@@SILKYSMOOTH30FPS Gonna check Hedgehog studios what's the best place nowadays to get them? Zliilz on AliExpress handles look nice but $109 which seems high for AliExpress stuff but cheaper than most
Your white chatterbait emitates a shad, so instead of putting a baby rage as a tail, try to put a white fluke instead. I use this exact color a bunch.
@@SILKYSMOOTH30FPS yeah I'll probably use a white baby rage tail sideways
One thing about chatterbaits...originally used for thier hunting action. The more drag a skirt and trailer create, the hunting action gets removed. Straight tapered trailers zekos and even a skirtless chatertbait get bit with the increase hunting action. Keep up the Aliexpress baut videos, love to get many of my baits there.
I have the original bates hundo, casting wise it’s on par as the zillion sv tw . My only issue is since it is metal frame it gets cold in the hand during winter time
I think its better you do videos instead of live streams cuz the quality is so poor its hard to see what you're even holding at some point.
@@SILKYSMOOTH30FPS I need to figure out how to get better WIFI.. the crap I have sucks
Could it work on the compact
Is the little spring supposed to be under the pin
@@Masterplays-dg9gv yes
I see digitaka has the new 25 steez lmt up there... let me know if u decide to sell one of ur steez
@@brewtankoutdoors1432 Oh I'm Definitely going to sell one for sure the 7.1 with the regular sv boost spool but I might also sell one of the limited shallow spool also.. the Conquest BFS for sure also..
You should make a video about the new shimano stuff shown. And yes, you should absolutely get the new steez, its one of the very rare reels better than the zillion in every way.
@@SILKYSMOOTH30FPS yeah it looks like a whole new lineup of reels coming from Shimano basically... I think I will get a new Steez and sell at least one of my Limited reels maybe 2 along with the Conquest BFS... Debating about the new Tatula or Hundo also but the Tatula doesn't have a clicker but does have Boost Spool.. Tatulas are like Shimanos I've tried them all but don't really like any of them compared to higher end Daiwas
@@bassnbonsai No reason to have multiple of the same reel. So if you have three limited steezes, sell two with your conquest. Since you have never tried a proper DC reel, maybe the Aldebaran DC would be another reel to watch for.
How does it run? 👀
@@bluesuitreviews658 runs great like a Glock so far
@ that’s all I needed to hear, i will be building one of those this year, thank you 🙏🏾
The timeny trigger isnt made for the micro dagger i have it installed on a g23 mos snd its the greatest trigger imo
Should have done the test on dry land to get an accurate measurement
You can take all the take up from the timney. What I recommend is the timney shoe on gen 5 trigger or on the Glock performance trigger. That’s what I did with mine. Even with the Johnny Glock shoe for timney it’s still not a great reset I took so much take up out the timney I had to file trigger shoe safety and trigger bar. It’s like a 1911 trigger.
I just bought a Ruger RXM. Going to order an EHG and dremel some of the front off since its not serialized, and if I mess it up, oh well. Thanks for explaining it in detail.
You get nothing but low balled when you go to trade in a gun, worse than a car, i think a lot of gun stores really make their money on used guns so the principal of buy low sell high comes into play
Did you figure out the issue at 56:30?
Do you like those short little handles on those reels?
@@Glock-1 yeah I actually prefer 80mm handles especially on bfs reels but I get used to the 90 or 95mm ones...
The megabass orochi xx are going for just 199 in plenty of stores online. Much better than those chinese rods from ali. And megabass weren't the first that tuned the rotor, daiwa did it years before them withe the tdz type r and the tdz type r+ If the only DC reel that you have tried is a trashy curado made for casuals that are on the water once of twice a month, you haven't tried a DC reel. I much prefer Daiwas myself, but owning one DC reel has its purpose. The 2015 Met DC's can be had for really cheap on ebay now, and they cast very well. The 2024 Met DC has a comfier frame, plams better and is lighter, but casting distance wise its the same. External line adjustment modes is a massive plus, tho.
No TEMU here yet, but a lot from Aliexpress with reasonable success that continue to catch fish. A key is change hooks, super sharp but break/snap. BEFORE odering check and convert weights and measurements to a unit you know to avoid the surprise of "micro bait sizes". I love the 1-5$ baits I get and can have qty that I can't afford with US baits....even with the small number of "bad baits"
Can you add a description to your video showing the baits, which store on aliexpress you purchased them from and which stores you trust/have had successfully purchased from before. Thanks
@@GR8smallie_angler I used to originally but since I'm not sponsored and AliExpress stores are always changing up and losing inventory I quit doing that a while back.. if there's a specific bait you're looking for I can try to help you find it but learning how to navigate AliExpress is actually the key to finding baits rods and reels even cheaper on any given day week or month
Tip… Sand them down to take the sheen off! I’ve never seen a shiny minnow yet, a little glitter on the shiners for ice fishing, yes. That orange belly perch one looks 👀 awesome!
@@GR8smallie_angler yeah also forgot to mention the cheaper shinier ones to sort of dull out pretty fast and one of the Old tricks back in the day was to leave real bright baits out in the sun and flip them back and forth to dull them out.. nowadays more natural or ghost colors available and a lot of baits actually have paints that don't dull as much in the Sun
All bass jerbaits on Temu are trash. That I can tell you. I can also tell you that Ali has a lot of scammers on that site. You won't get your money back if you've been scammed. They just give you the runaround. Temu is shipped from their warehouses so it is safe. Problem is Temu hardly restocks. Will have to keep checking.
That's why you use PayPal, so you can recover your money back if something goes wrong.
@@wolverinex4243 never dealt with Temu but I've never been scammed or at least scammed and didn't get money back.. I've had a few items never show up and eventually got the refund if you file a dispute and I've also gotten money back on broken rods a few different times.. But you're right AliExpress is just a hub for all the different Chinese businesses to list merchandise on and like anything else can have scammers making fake online stores.. but I think AliExpress guarantees money back if anything like this happens... I trust AliExpress more than I do buying or selling overseas using eBay.. I've been scammed the opposite way on eBay as a seller ...
I've lost a lot of money to scam the first and last time. Never got it back. Ali doesn't want to believe nor deal with me. They will not go after sellers like Ebay.
@@wolverinex4243 I'm not sure when the last time you dealt with AliExpress but they have it automatically refund you if package doesn't show up with tracking.. now if item shows up and isn't what you ordered or damaged you have to file a claim and send pics ECT but the few times I've had rods broken or once the wrong reel showed up I sent pics and had a refund within a week.. I still shop locally as well as eBay AliExpress and Digitaka and a few other places
@@bassnbonsai Well, I must admit it was around 2018 or so, but I get what you are saying.I still think they need a Paypal option if they haven't yet. Paypal will fight for you like Ebay. I still think Ali will not refund you bc the scammers are too smart. What they did was send it to my number on a different street so as to tell Ali, it did show up when the physical address doesn't exist. Like you can see it on Google, but when I drove there, there was no house. It makes the dispute hard to go through. Ali will refer you to seller. The seller will send you back to Al, Ali will send you back to seller, and the game keeps going on and on until you just get tired of it. The language barrier is bad too. Secondly, they don't have representative to take calls. All this is done by long waits over internet "dialogs." It's so bad that I had to put them on blast on Quora. That's the place to go speak your mind and try to end these shady companies. I do think them taking my money hurts them more than me. Now I have to resort to Temu. I cannot speak to the other fishing lures/products, but as far as trout, they have just about the same stuff in different colors by different sellers. If they stock everything often, I would be shopping more often. Temu is like The Hook Up Tackle. They never restocks.
Thanks for answering the questions about these modulers that nobody else was answering👍
Great to see you putting out some fishing stuff again.
