Ming-Yang Reels

[Rip-Plugger]

Yup. I've seen their stuff. All-American Outdoors has some as well, including Tonman reels, which are prolly made by Omoto as well.

I dig the tomman stuff,looks realy golden ya know.
I wonder if they have anything thats castable./

JZ,

I have 2 of them coming.a 5000 and a 6000.
I'll replace my CZH-50 with the 5000-J and my CZH-60 with the 6000-J,works out great.

I'm curious to know how those jungle reels are. I was tempted a few times to get one. But they are so similar to Abu's. it ain't funny.
I like the other oddball, different type stuff.. They suit me.

ya know Jim,I thnk they are the same deal internally,I said the same thing when I saw one.it has everything the abu's have except the price.
when mine get here I'll let ya know how they feel.

I can imagine them being the same inside as abu since omoto made them for abu at one time.
I was never interested in abu but I'll try the omoto gear out.
now omoto needs to make some nice surf sticks,unless they do now and I don't know about it.


BTW,I invited surfslinger to join us here to schoolus and others here.
I hope he comes on over since he split from the other place.

A Ming Yang handle,

It has 5000D gearing and plates, with the direct drive.

thats a sharp machine,crimmus colors and all.I never knew santa was a surf man.
I love the small power handle the MY's have,very nice.
I have some info to share with you later on,It's time to head to the baitshop to do the weekly thing,hang out with the boys and shoot the breeze.4 hours worth of bs,I think I can make it.

JZ,

if you get the CL-70 make sure you take the counterweight off and add a heavier one.
the stock brass one is waaay too light and the reel will engage on the cast!

I had to do mine or get another handle.I added a steel weigt that I painted and it s nearly perfect balance.
also,put the handle to the center position!

I bought a shimano power handle too just to keep a spare.

cheers

Thanks, I've had reels like that.
That Hubilie has that good feature, that I described before, that eliminates the reel engaging, because of an unbalanced handle.

yeah that is a great idea they have,Omoto will be a great producer with a great rep too.I just wish they had some kind of home base here in the states.

they make a pretty product,a strong product and very reliable product.what else do ya need.
