You can still buy Truscend at Amazon. But please note Truscend doesn't have its official webstie, nor it's a real fishing brand in China. I searched Taobao.com and Jd.com, (taobao.com, the biggest ecommerce webisite in China), there is no such brand named Trusend there. The fact is Truscend just procures fishing lures and rebands them as 'Truscend', it's in fact a re-seller who has very limited models of lures. So I prefer the famous brands such as Tsurinoya, Kuying, DANKUNG swimbaits or famours brands in USA such as BullShad, RapalaUSA, ShimanoUSA etc.
I have abu roxon and shimano curado bfs, both are much more expensive. but now I use this clamber micro more.
The difference is the clamber micro is really aimed at ultralight fishing while both of reels above are appropriate for L to ML.
Thank Dankung for such awesome CDM reel.
Works extremely well with small lure below 3 grams, I measured the spool(without bearings) is 6.2 grams. It really has the lightest stock spools of any BFS reels,lighter than the current champion : The Abu Garcia LTX BF8!!
This is my 'truscend fishing lures swimbait bass fishing lures jointed crankbait'
It swims like its counterpart which is 3 times the price. Hooks are ok but I did upgrade to mustad hooks which I do on all my trouble hook baits.
I have a coupon I got from Kevin in Hong Kong. The coupon code is CLA10 , with which you get 10 dollars off.
gh100 is just awesome! I own a Alphas Air, Shimano Aldebaran and an Abu Garcia Revo EXD, each of them I bought at 300+ dollars. But I fish much more with my Fishband GH100 than either of those much more expensive reels.
The casting performance for BFS-specific applications are excellent. I use 2 to 5 grams lure for trout fishing in brooks. It's comparable to my Alphas Air TW 20 which is more than 300 dollars.
