New BOUGIE gear to test this FALL! Shimano Poison Ultima! Daiwa Exist!!!

[@tmwhh]

Thank you for your honest review! Good Job. I really do appreaciate it. Greetings from Germany

[@lautmchannel13812]

That's a super awesome rod you've got there. I've always wanted to own one of these, spinning or casting but to no avail. They are so rare. You're so lucky, my man! 😮

[@Justin.Hawkins]

I’d be curious to compare it to just an expride 7’0 medium as well lol. Sweet looking though.

[@decoyn-7782]

I got the Ultima 7'0 ML a week after iCast... been smashing them on a dropshot ever since. I put a 2500 Stella on it with 11lb Defier braid for now, but might go back to 23 Vanquish 2500 You have to retrain your brain, but make sure to keep your finger off the blank. Let the resonator chamber do it's job... the bites feel weird on this rod, but you don't miss them at all.

[@yacobginz6075]

Does the resonator really work. I picked up the exact same combo as the one in the video and have yet to test it out. I noticed that when I first grabbed it I would choke up on the rod when holding it. Just curious if the resonating chamber in the but of the rod really works…

[@txg1275]

Great, now I have two halves of a sleeve i can lose! Now not only will i be mad at myself for losing it but I'll be constantly reminded by the other half i didn't lose. That said, psyched to get my hands on one.

[@user-ls8yu4ps3h]

Super nice Shimano rod. I will definitely use the Shimano Exsence A wheel on that rod. It has a very light rotor and no mag seal bearing which gives resistance....I myself recently ordered "Daiwa 23 Steez Real Control RC S68MH-SV" which weighs only 84 Grams ( 2.96 OZ )

[@makcatchem9614]

The Epitome rod by Edge rods is a 7'2 spinning that weights in at 2.9oz for $500. With recoil guides. I'll take that all day

[@jamesh7469]

That blank is genuinely the most significant new carbon fiber technology to hit the rod market in 10+ years

[@christianbohnsack4556]

I just order the Epitome MBR spinning rod. The SJR is supposedly 2.55 oz. Looking forward to getting it.

[@JL050]

Where's the Ultima review at?

[@tymfortoys]

Great BOUGIE gear! You have great taste in fishing gear. Loved the Exist on the Poison rod! If it looks great and works great I don't care if brands are mixed.. I'll have to pick up that 7' med Poison Ultima by the end of the year.

[@davidwilliams1805]

Great video! Some really nice stuff! I enjoyed watching this and I love that rod! Thanks so much for continuing to share great content. Keep up the good work my friend!

[@PunchFishing]

Thanks for watching!!

[@playingwithmytrains5440]

I watched Matt's video on the core swim bait hooks and decided to give them a try. Love Matt but the hooks not so much. I am hooked on the Shimano rods after many years of using ST. Croix. I love the St. Croix rods but am liking the Exprides and Poison Adrena's more. Not sure if I can justify the added price of the Ultima's. You will have to let us know what your thoughts are once you get some time on the water with it.

[@spRkyKd4]

Can’t wait for that rod comparison video!

[@glxbe]

I think FishTheMoment did a video a while back on those Core jigheads. If I remember, he was sort of fishing it like a big hair jig and letting it sink, reeling fast, sink, reel fast, etc.

[@spinningrodfisherman]

holy geezz. crazy combo. have my eyes on this combo as well, but havn't pulled the trigger yet

[@andrewalkhazshvilly2238]

Need a Shimano Expride review. Casting 7 3 and I thought I saw you punching with a longer model as well?

[@skylars4335]

Bro, I literally thought you were playing a joke and unsleeving a $99 Daiwa Tatula Xt at first! You're also welcome for not being able to unsee this now🤣

[@PunchFishing]

Next time!

[@tobiaslarsson552]

We will need an update when a review on that rod! That handle actually looks really neat. I'd say its near to impossible getting that here in sweden..

[@sha6mm]

I would like to see your thoughts of this rod how it compares to Shamino Expride B 7’ Medium

[@kouvang5707]

Made the mistake of buying a Exist 3k-H... Now, I wanna use it for everything now.

[@crashdsnowman1]

Great vids. Could you put a video together or just comment on comparing best jig/bottom contact rods Med or med heavy spinning and casting at each price point $99, $199, $299, $399. Seems a jig and worm rod is where money needs to be spent to get a sensitive rod. Thanks for the great content.

[@rhodesianhunter9360]

That’ll be a cool review. Looking forward to that one.

[@LoganWolf1984]

You should check out the JDM Vanquish. I have liked it better than the Stella and Exist. Sweet stuff though.

[@EK99_00]

Do you know what rod is lighter than any of the rods you mentioned? Phenix feather

[@lonelydoggie]

Review!😂 thinking about pulling trigger on this or conquest 842s

[@PunchFishing]

Do the trigger 😁

[@lonelydoggie]

@@PunchFishing wish I can do both 😿

[@TouYang_89]

Alright, I need a review of the rods before i pull the trigger!!

[@tvang464]

Update video on the ultima?

[@akersnl]

Finally you got an Exist!

[@yacobginz6075]

Just bought the exact same combo yesterday

[@HBeretta]

my SLP works exist would look right at home on that ultima.

[@lpbass8369]

Love my 852 nrx

[@PunchFishing]

one of the goats

[@nhum2023]

You should post a few side by side pics of the 2500 and 3000 exists for comparison.

[@PunchFishing]

Really they are not dramatically different.

[@user-eo3je8vw4v]

What brand, model scale do you use to weigh your rods and reels, etc... Thanks.

[@kayakfishingforpredators9107]

Have you seen the MB Orochi X10 lineup. They look decent and the price is great too. That Exist is a 800$ -ish reel??😮

[@ZMosGreen]

Did you do a full review of this rod yet?

[@PunchFishing]

Not yet

[@MattWood-kz7ek]

Any updates on the Shimano rod? I’m thinking about getting the 6’10 Medium, for: jerkbaits, top water, and soft plastics. I would love to see what you thought of it.

[@PunchFishing]

I used it a lot this fall but I still need more time with it in the spring to give it a full review. I really can't suggest spending this kinda $$ on one of these. It's not THAT good.

[@frankoliveira189]

All guides are shimano the gold are the x guides air with inserts! This frame guides are hollow , I have the exsence infinity 8/6 m casting !!

[@PunchFishing]

I thought the rod had Fugi Torzite in the middle, that's what the Shimano folks were saying at iCast.

[@user-rs9nf7zc1z]

Hello! Please tell me, do you see a big difference between new Shimano Expride 22 and Shimano Poison Adrena rods? Is it possible to say that Shimano Poison Adrena will be much better because of more technologies in it? Or maybe they have the same blanks and main difference in the design? It's hard to choose one of them. I want to buy 1610M - both series have this model. Does it make sense to overpay for Adrena?

[@vishnukv4973]

Curado mgl 150 or daiwa tatula sv 103.for casting 4 gm to 18 gm which one is best?

[@tmwhh]

Where is the balance point of the ultima with the 3000 exsence or exist?

[@kenglee88]

what makes you want to grab the m instead of the ml?? I'm leaning towards the ml but i dont know if i want to throw almost $900 for a rod that doesnt have lifetime warranty. that's my reason why i havent pull the trigger yet

[@lawlessplays5098]

This is a taboo combo....but I love it.

[@nyewang]

when did your code stop working on Daiwa? Was going to pickup the steez 7'6". Oh well, I guess I don't really need it :)

[@PunchFishing]

The change happened recently, but Daiwa is code protected now.

[@ReactionGiants]

Makes my p5 windbuster sound like a Walmart rod 😅😅

[@yacobginz6075]

Please do a review on the combo specifically the rod. Not really any reviews out their

[@PunchFishing]

I will!!

[@joshbekah4755]

IMO hard to beat steez the one

[@reubensolly2237]

Where is the Shimano rod made?

[@PunchFishing]

Everything is made in China

[@reubensolly2237]

@@PunchFishing Wow, I thought at least their top of the line stuff would be MIJ. I really dislike these brands charging Japanese prices for Chinese products.

[@MrNovember-pg2mr]

I own both the expride and adrena in 7ft medium so let us know if the ultima is as versatile.

[@MrNovember-pg2mr]

@@user-rs9nf7zc1z Honestly I like the Adrena a lot more the handle where you hold is monocoque vs the Expride A where it is cork but if it's the expride B then I don't really know for sure about the handle but it looks like it's still a cork handle. There is a difference in sensitivity though I've felt fish bump on a slack mono line and even the scales of a carp scraping the line for the Adrena. They are both only a hundred dollars apart so you save or lose just about that much.

[@user-rs9nf7zc1z]

Can I buy your 7’2” Expride B spinning lol

[@PunchFishing]

no! I like that rod a lot. :)

What's the shimano warranty?.. One year?.. No thanks I'll stick w nrxs...

$895 spinning reel…really?

yes, it's bonkers

[@raymondjohnson6496]

They call them X-Guides not torztie guides don’t cry $900 😂😂😂 that rod should cost $550 not $900 some body got it from the rear if you know what I mean 😅😅😅

[@PunchFishing]

I thought the guides in the middle were torzite, my mistake.

[@raymondjohnson6496]

$900 dollar rod with $30 guide set go Shimano 😭😭😭 thats sad them guides are not torztie I would rather have the windbuster rod over this rod look at them guides they are not torztie guides don’t cry
