I've just been through the bait thread to try to find any comments on the companies bait to find the thread deleted guess it got a bit heated for some reason.. I have the opportunity to become part of their bait team and was wondering what peoples experiences with the bait are .. nutcracker appears to be the best seller with more feedback than any of their others I can find... be nice to hear thoughts without causing whatever the previous issue was.. Thanks

Hydra k is an active bait , sticky krill is not... is Krill active not the same as HK active ?

I've 2 x Armalite mk 2's.... 2.25 and a Mk 2 2lb er never use now ,,, anyone know roughly what are they worth ?

as said 5500 size reels are perfect for up to 100 yds 16lb line ( fox exorcet 16lb is super strong and thin for the lbs) and 3 oz lead hit that no problem at all .... I also have 10000 & 14000 size and am hitting a little further ..the bigger the reels you go the balance goes and you can loose distance ... don't get caught by "must have" big pits unless you are fishing big pits and using a bait boat.

ooops is this wrong place ?

Hi all looking for 3 reels for 3.25 torrix with 40mm butt ring... I have narrowed it down to these 2 based on a £500/600 ish price budget .. new or 2nd hand

Who has owned either and genuine thoughts on the right route to go I have always owned shimanos and for some reason fancy a change ... would both be a good choice or any other recommendation based on what you would use on these rods..
Happy Boxing day
Steve

not seen 1 for a long time to be honest but I'll keep my eyes open... a set of 3 went for £750 on another site last week..

I'm keeping the pair of 10000 XSA I've never had a problem with them great reels .. IF I could get a 3rd I'd be interested they are on my pair with 50mm rings.. but fancy something a bit smaller for the 40mm ... I have a pair of 5500 xtb but again need a 3rd which I guess is cheaper and readily available for £100 but really like the Ci4 so 5500 now seems a great option.. over filling them definitely would explain the line under the spools with the 1400's ..
