Brought me my first jdm rod. Major craft x-ride 7’6” ajing. I’m officially impressed probably won’t be my last. Paired it with a Shimano NASCi 1000. Attachment 309314Attachment 309315Attachment 309313

That’s a slick looking catching machine.
Congratulations, I am still on the fence about a JDM rod.

Looks good. I think the instructions said "just add fish". lol
X-Ride is top shelf........I have that in the 7’ 5” model. Congrats on your new rod.

ENJOY!
Sorry, mine is the 7’5” as well, don’t know why I said 76 anyway I had about an hr of daylight after work so I hopped a couple of farm ponds. Nothing but little stump perch but it slings a 1/64 trout magnet incredibly well. I’m most impressed with how it holds it’s backbone all the way to the tip yet it has such a tiny diameter and weighs next to nothing. You feel everything. Thanks alphahawk for all you input.Quote:

I think you’re going to have lots of fun with that. Good luck.
Very nice looking. I received my Gekkabijin 7'6" uls last week and just like a fish I'm hooked. Enjoy your new setup.
Murdok (OP) described the action of his new rod quite well, how would you describe the action of the Diawa? The California Gill Whisperer uses that rod also.Quote:

I first paired it with pflueger president xt25 and then tried a president limited edition 30x and I like the larger reel better, was able to cast a 1/64th trout magnet further. The sensitivity was awesome.Attachment 309546Attachment 309546Quote:

I have that exact reel on my St. Croix Panfish special 7ft light action. With 4lb braid it is has become my favorite. I would like to pair it with a JDM rod also. The X ride and the Diawa look to be worthy candidates.

I just put on 2lb trout SOS with a 2lb floro leader, also just purchased 4lb fireline not sure what will work out better.Quote:
