Jeezuz Christmas! They are so hard to get a hold of, but one finally came in. I was hoping it was going to be the 200 Phantom, but the 160 Sardine will do! Perfect for my boat anyway...

They really run nice at high speeds and no tuning necessary. Looking forward to getting one on it rather than losing them. They get hit though.
Since this is my first one, at least I'll modify it with the hooks I want to see on it. My buddy loves the trebles, but they've only been trouble.
Trebles are trouble! Kaiju style but wider barbs than the stock hooks would be my personal choice of hook. I've got a couple Yozuri Bonitas in purple and black that I've been running, though I haven't seen the bluefin since I started running them. I hear they get bit though, and you can find them for less than $25.
He's using Kaiju hooks, but still not enough bite on them.
Got an inside call and ran down to get my 200 size MM. I'm good now with the 160 and 200. Now I will set the hooks just as I want, and no trebles!

Of course they are now that the BFT have moved out. They took a page from Shimano on the supply and demand trick.
