Did show off the reel sum time back finally got around to spooling it up but not B4 a brain explosion had me making a new drag system
Opted to reeplace the graphite washers with leather wuns & boy wot a supa smooth drag this reel has now got.
I was so impressed I did the same with a few of the other new reels I was marrying to rods
1st 2 pics are of the CD 7000 mounted on a so called Kungy Jig Stick, nothing fancy about this rod as it's wun of the samples which gets sent over here from the factory pretty raw.
From there any mods alterations are noted B4 the order goes back in the case of this rod allow winch replaces the fuji plastic wun bottom hypalon grows hiher so as rod can sit in rod holders more comforable etc etc.
The rod itself ?????
Wot a Rip Snorta geez it's got some grunt & a nice action to boot to aid in lifting power
Last pic is of wun of my CI's did a thread on them a while back, grabbed a few different coloured spools today to see how they'd look, reel is now married to wun of my LOX spin rods wittle 3kg stick.
Did have a play around with wun of the sample LOX heavier line class rods today & loved the action of it but I'll have to wait till shipment comes in wun I played with was a 7 1/2 ft 6 - 10 kg stick.
Turns out these rods are very popular & factory is having a hard time keeping up with orders
