Great video. The reason I switched to almost all P5 rods is because of how fun they are. Not only are they super sensitive, versatile and lightweight but they are the most fun rods to fight fish with.
And MB came with six NEW models,... Zangetsu (spin) Monstreus (bc) Bearing down (bc) Super 7-11 (bc) Gravel code (bc) And 2 more models i cant find the names of (thanks 2 Android)
Great review. I got my hands on a couple of the Diawa Steez real connections, and it's next level. I believe it's lighter than all of my nrx plus's. With the exchange rate, I was able to get 2 for the price of 1 from the hook up. I got the ML spinning & the MH spinning. The ML is money for strolling & the MH is like the Addermine, a junk fishing dream. Heavy strolling, etc. You could throw a jig on it. I love high-end tackle. It makes fishing more enjoyable for me because of the fun factor. I get goosebumps using some of this stuff. And that makes it worth it for me. Get out and go fishing & take someone with you. Share this pleasure with others.
I broke that rod casting a 1/4 oz dropshot on its first trip. They replaced it and so far so good. Been using mine for hover strolling works pretty good for it but I’m ready for it to break again.
Super thanks for the video. great timing. rigging rods now for a trip up north. i now know what i will throw on my new Adermine! appreciate all the detail you put into your videos. keep them coming!!!
How long have you owned yours? I just got mine and noticed that unlike yours, the first about 8" of the rod above the handle is the same finish as the reset of the rod. Yours looks like maybe it has a finish costing, or is darker for some reason. I checked MB's website and their picture does look like mine. So I wonder what gives, and what effect it has? P.S. Thanks for all the great content. Keep it up please! 👍
Brian… am I crazy or is the Whipsnake more sensitive and responsive? I tried this newer Addermine on Mille Lacs for both drop shot and jig worm, and could not seem to maintain feel of the bottom structure with the waves and wind , yet was able to feel everything using the Whipsnake, which I had rigged up for nose hook DS. I ended up using the Whipsnake for most of the day and was underwhelmed with the Addermine. Kind of bummed but it was just one day of data.
I was wondering where you went. Glad you’re back. By any chance did you get your hands on any of the new GLX casting from G Loomis? I would love your take on them before i drop cash on them. Hope you are well buddy! 🎣
I'm definitely going to grab a GLX but I just can't decide on what model to pick up. None of them really jump out to me as a must buy.. I'm definitely open to suggestions.
@@PunchFishing The only 2 i have my eye on is the Chatterbait and Jerkbait rods. I would like to feel or see the Daiwa Zillion rods also. Tackle Warehouse has zero reviews on them so far which is kind of surprising. I moved from Texas to Tennessee so i am trying to learn how to fish better here. Been fun but different!
Way outside my budget (thank you children) but a punchfishing spinning anything gets that whole like and comment deal. I will say I really liked the original Addermine better if for no other reason than it had a literally perfect handle.

To quote "I baby the shit out of this rod, because I know I can't replace it"...... And now it's broken ?? Punch, how'd you let the most sensitive rod slip out of your possession???
Trust me, it broke my heart. I was putting the rod away and I pulled the lure down to hook it on to the hook keeper but the drag on the reel was way too tight and I just felt a snap... It was me not paying attention and being an idiot.

I have been in between windbuster or addermine. Thank you. Addermine it is. Okashira would be killer on that
Super thanks for the video. great timing. rigging rods now for a trip up north. i now know what i will throw on my new Adermine!
appreciate all the detail you put into your videos. keep them coming!!!
How do you compare this with Landsat? I want to use for ned rig, drop shot and hopefully weightless wacky as well.
Thanks for the honest review. Keep doing!
What do you think about throwing small cranks and jerkbaits with this rod? Great review!
absolutely could do small cranks.. jerkbaits? smaller ones for sure. I don't know if i'd do a full 110 on it.

Nice video! A really nice review. And that combo looks awesome!
Thanks for watching
After watching the video i really have a desire for the addermine. ❤ But its only available for the US market 😥😢🙄
Just wondering if you can do a review on a Trika fishing rod
do a comparison of the megabass orochi xx whipsnake and the orochi x10 medusa
They are very different rods. The Medusa is a true medium light.

The whipsnake is really a great rod! Your observation is very interesting.
great review thanks for sharing
How would you compare it to the Landsat?
What is the BEST largemouth dropshot rod?
Steez AGS & NRX+ seem to the most popular. I have this Addermine and I'm very happy with it.
Ok I know they aren’t the exact same specs but… You can only pick one. P5 Addermine or Steez AGS The One? What are you going with?
Addermine

I threw small Megabass jerk baits with mine this past winter.
What are your thoughts on the new FFS solid tip rods?
Like which one in particular?

Edge rods always have deals and discount. I just pick up a silver widow for 45 percent off. You think you ever going to review any edge rods?
just get the new GLX DSR MH 863, Loomis hit a home run!
I have so many rods for a drop shotting as it is!
I just ordered the DSR 863 also can’t wait to get it.
@@PunchFishing understandable but it's a must have. Fish one if you can!

I Highly recommend a Zangetsu 24destroyer P5
How Does the zangetsu compare to the flyssa?
I dont have a Flyssa in my collection
How is the action compared to Whipsnake? Is it worth upgrading?
Id say the Addermine is a LITTLE stronger than the whip snake. I don't think you really need to upgrade though. The whip snake is awesome.
@@PunchFishing Thanks for info. I love using a NED rig so It's temping to add to my rod collection
Nice vid Punch, keep doing what you do. Good honest reviews.
I just recently got the whipsnake. Would you go with addermine over a Landsat for smallmouth? I’d like to get another P5.
@@bryceslavik6730 The landsat is really really similar to the whip snake. I think there will just be a lot of overlap.

vs Medusa (Orochi X10) for dropshot?
I just got the Medusa, good question though
Should the Medusa compare more with the P5 Landsat ?
@@marcletourneau7001 mmm, could, but not really
