13 fishing

I have the concept a and the TX edition baitcasters. I also have some of the omen rods. Their gear is solid.

Have 3 C's and 2 A's. Really like them, bought 2 Omen rods last year and so far we really like them. Haven't tried their spinning reels yet cuz my Penn Battles have held up.

I'm looking at the concept A3...redfish and speck fishing

That's what I have and I like it a lot. No problems in the 2+ years I've had it.

Don't like them. Water gets inside the bait casts way too easy and the bearings pit. I lost count on how many bearings I replaced. I went to Lew's and I'm sold and will never go back to them or shimano curado

There were issues with the bearings on the initial offering of the Concept C's--the newer ones have upgraded bearings. I have 2 newer Cs and love them. Use them wade fishing for specks, so they get drenched in salt water and I've had no problems. Broke them down for the start of this season and there were no issues with corrosion. Their casting distance is very impressive.

Thanks for all the input guys...
