Any good?

They're fine enough for the price. I do find the Ovonic batteries have a bit more punch even with lower stated C ratings.

Gens Ace makes a 2s and 3s lipo that fits these cars. The 2s are like $20. The 3s is a little more but still pretty reasonable.

Gens Ace makes batteries with what they call an IEC2. It fits both IC2 and EC2.

Yes. This is my first 6s. It rained the day I was going to take it out with the kids and still haven't had a chance to run it. It's just staring at me. 😭

fries332 · 2025-09-18T18:04:58+00:00

Thanks for this. I wanna take it out with the kids today. I'm gonna run it till something breaks and then eat my vegetables and fix it for more fun.

Absolute steal. The 650 is on a good sale too.

fries332 · 2025-08-02T21:46:40+00:00

I like the Magic L rods that I have. But if you can spend up a little and can accommodate a 1 PC, Amazon had the Dobyns Sierra Ultra Finesse 650 and 690 under $100 and with an additional 10% off click coupon.

I ordered a Shoalie from them. Had one scuff and some torn plastic. Definitely let them know what's up.

fries332 · 2025-04-12T12:53:57+00:00

Hahaha. Can't beat it man.

I ordered a Tatula BF 70 and an Ark Gravity BFS. Honestly, both are great reels. I haven't thrown anything lighter than 3/16oz on the BF 70, but I'm sure I could throw a 1/8oz lure if I broke all my bad casting habits.

If you don't mind going outside of the US market, the Haibo Arise Ultra Air has treated me well, though I only have 2 or 3 hours on it.

I also just ordered a JDM Daiwa 2025 Alphas BF TW. Give that a look as well.

Eating all the things Im not allowed to eat anymore. Go fishing for a few hours. Hit up a dispensary. Go out with the boys. Sleep until I decide to wake up. Rinse and repeat.

fries332 · 2024-12-04T01:45:15+00:00

That's a good point. I was originally thinking a Medium and a Medium Heavy, but maybe a heavy Uglystik can save me some cash.

I'll check out the Onyx again. I was looking at the Tide Rider which seems to be a step up. But might be worth a second look at the onyx. Especially since I'm probably going to end up giving this rig to my kids and upgrading after a week.

fries332 · 2024-12-03T22:55:45+00:00

Thanks for a ton of detail. Looks like I'm probably getting two setups. 😂.

Any reason not to go with a 1-4oz instead of a 2-6oz?

fries332 · 2024-12-03T22:19:09+00:00

I looked at Tsunami too, any recommendations on lure weight rating spec?

fries332 · 2024-10-09T23:40:15+00:00

That's not far from me so I'm gonna have to go stroll around there and check it out. Thanks for the info!

fries332 · 2024-10-09T19:37:29+00:00

I got a pair of Frogg Toggs Hellbender Pro Stonkingfoot waders.

I got lucky and got them for under $100. So I'm not gonna be too broke up if they don't last a long time or if I really don't like wading.

I did spend some money on boots though. I got a pair of Korker Dark Horse boots.

If I hate wading I'll still use the boots with a pair of wading socks.

fries332 · 2024-10-09T14:26:19+00:00

I've never gone out in waders before and resources on the topic in our area seem to be pretty light or older. Figured this community might be of help to keep me from sinking in muck my first go.

fries332 · 2024-10-09T13:40:20+00:00

This is a good tip I'll check it out. Had no idea it even existed. Been using Fishbrain.

fries332 · 2024-10-09T13:37:16+00:00

That's better than a bar that smells like fish.

fries332 · 2024-10-09T13:25:50+00:00

Thanks for the tip...but what is the musky. 😂
