Nothing woke or "triggering," about pointing out a big contradiction. Just as the left has diluted the term "racism," to mean anything they don't like. Using the terms 'woke and triggering' when not applicable will dilute them as well.



Yep, nobody here really cares or is affected. Just seems a odd that the reel company is claiming that he used their “Chingchong deluxe” model and the guy really used the Koreancat&dogbbq brand.

That's why I brought up the Cliff Pace deal, the stink eye Zona gives him at the end of that 2013 Classic show is priceless.



I don’t remember this? What happened? Curious now

Wouldn't be surprised is they have an association with Lew's. They look very similar, probably made in the same facility

Piscifun is just Lews spins off to attract the dooshy flat bill kids. Same reels. Just cheaper.

A quick google search looks like piscifun is in an Ardent brand, they don't look anything like lews to me. If they were just re-branded lews, I'd be buying for 1/4 price, but doesn't look to be the case.

I might be thinking of kast king. I know Brent Chapman runs them and their rods.

He won the tournament on an old smithwick rogue but said he was using a jerkbait from his sponsored company, I think it was Jackall

I thought he caught most of his fish on a football head jig?

He didn't hide it. If he was fishing his sponsors, it wouldn't be "unnamed":

"unnamed casting reel"

Yeah, that’s the point. The sponsor claimed he used their reels, but he didn’t, that’s been said several times now.
