Let's start with the box!



What?  Am I doing it wrong?


Ok let's see whats inside!




Wait a minute...how the heck did that get in there?  Maybe this is some sort of LMG trickery.  Let's take a closer look.




Hmmm...interesting...better continue.




This doesn't look right.  Is it broken?




What's this magforce stuff anyway?





Ooooooh I've been had!  LMG WHAT DID YOU DO!!!!!!



Well that's snazzy.



All joking aside, I know this is a peasant reel compared to what most of you guys own but I scored it for $100.  You already know but it's a Tatula CT 100HS in 7.3:1.  Can't wait to get this on the water tomorrow.  Thanks for playing.

That is some interesting trickery! It is a very nice reel! You gotta hand it to Daiwa, they make em pretty. Well when they can figure out that red parts go with red parts, and purple parts go with purple, yellow with yellow that kinda stuff lol.

Hope you enjoy it. Let us know how you like it after some trial runs.

Well played sir. Lol. Great reel for sure. It can sling some baits. I hope you like it. It's by far the best reel in the $100-$150 area.

My wife says she is gonna leave me if I go fishing one more time........lord how I will miss that woman.

When he says it can sling a bait, he ain't lying. He was blasting frogs 10-15 feet further than Lee and I were. Down to the spool.

Got her mounted up today on a 7' MH/F Abu Vendetta.



Not the greatest rod, but I picked it up, along with this 6'6 Fenwick Eagle M/F from a website for $60 together.

Thank you.  The reds do match up really well.

The Vendetta is actually a really good rod in the 50-75 dollar range. Especially if you get it at walmart or academy sports. The return policy is great and there are Walmart and academy's everywhere

Caught a handful of hybrids on it today on its maiden voyage.  I can't find a single thing wrong with this reel and can't believe it's the same price as a Lews LFS.

Speakings of Lews...This is for LMG


MBB Nate

Rock, do you know anywhere I can buy the fance lews knobs your reel has on it?

Which reel/knobs?


rockchalk06

Those were stock on the reel. I haven't seen them to buy aftermarket with the Lews name on them, but they are Winn knobs. You can get them in several different colors. I have some similar on my Shimano Core in black. I know Hawgtech seeks them, but I don't know anyone else that does

Those eagle rods are pretty tough. Ive been using one as my trunk rod for awhile since its a 2 piece. For when I can sneak away at lunch
