Like these videos. Shows the variety that’s out there.

Great info Tim, thanks for another quality video.

Thank you for the great information on the rods and the baits 🙂

One of the best things about tacticalbassin buyers guides is I can trust that they are being 100% transparent. And I never need to question if they're just pushing products because they were paid to do so, so thank you guys!

Thank you so much I am new to bass fishing and going to be in bassmaster when I get older

Thanks for the early peek at the expride pre-orderd the 7’L spinning now wait for the complex XR 2000 to get back in stock!

Great Job as always!!

Love all these! Gonna try to get some

I wish I even knew what the expired A was like. The demand is way high and supply way short. I have 1 on order for a while and don’t expect it anytime soon. Waiting a year for a rod makes you forget you’re waiting on it. I went with rods I could get until I found some I really like. I’d love to have a Shimano rod but just can’t do the waiting game. Great video breaking down the new baits and gear. Thanks for showing the new product.

I’m so glad I got the Shimano World Minnow and Diver in my favorite colors and I have the Exprides ordered, and I have used the Poison Adrena for a few years and I knew it would be Aces on the Expride. I even bought the new Curado rod with Monocouq handle… 👍👍👍👍

I want a lineup of those new exprides so bad!!!

I'm super excited for the shimano baits and the ExprideB. The price of the ExprideB is the same across the board for all the models, which I like rather than paying a extra $50 just for a longer rod in most other models.

Adrenaline craw is legit !! Pretty close to the zoom z craw but a nice little bait nonetheless. I like em both , also both are durable

I’m curious about that new Bantam. But those new Exprides look nice. I thought about getting a 6’10” M but keep gravitating to a Poison Adrena 6’10” M at my local tackle shop. That thing is super crisp feeling

I just picked up the 7’2 heavy ready to get out and use it!

Thanks for the vid

would love to see a 30 second YT short compilation of all the Hey You Guys?! and What’s Up Guys?! from all your past videos 🤣

Pre-ordered my 6'10" Medium expride on Tuesday from TW. Should receive it by April first. 🤙

OF course you guys have the new Exprides. I knew it!

those exprides are so cool!!!

Hey Tim… enjoyed the video… I had been thinking of a new spinning rod.. Matt did a video about the the all around rods and he recommended the 6:10 med light Expride… would you recommend the 7:2 med light for an all around or stay with the 6:10 med light… thanks again…

The new Expride fixed my main issue which was the handle on the spinning model!

Are the guides the same size as the A model? Can't wait to get the xx heavy to try out for the stripers!!!

So as per your recommendations i’ve got 2 metaniums (1 shallow spool) and 3 exprides b’s on order. I ordered exprides in 6’10” med, a 7’2” mh, and the 7’3” xh. i took your advice from the spring buyers guide an am doing the whole expride line. my question is you rave about the 6’10” med. and the expride a’s 6’10” medium moderate is a glass rod. The one you like is the glass rod correct not the 6’10” medium moderate fast? I think i ordered the wrong one… o well lol.

awesome!

Hey Tim, the blanks seem way different in action for the Expride B’s. For example the 6’10 M now has a slower mod-fast action. And lure weights seem different too. Any reason?

Have you guys played around with the new JSJ Handpoured hitch 6? If so what is the difference to the original besides being 30$ cheaper. Any input would be great

I hope Daiwa comes out with some new revamped rods as well

HOLY CRAP! That XXH Expride is good up to 17oz swimbaits!

What size Biffle head do you recommend for the midsize rage bug?

Do you use the colors that you recommend for all colors of water

What rod would you pair with a Curado BFS. Dobyns 1 or 0 power or the new expride medLit

It’s January, the lakes are froze over and my bank account is already taking a hit on fishing gear… excited to try out the World Divers and about to punch a ticket on an Expride B 7’2” ML to pair with a JDM Metanium MGL for some BFS action.

@tacticalbassin what are your thoughts on Shimano Twin Power XD vs Daiwa Certate?Don’t want to spend excsense,Stella, or exist money but want a sweet reel.

Any idea what the Guide Frame Material is for the Expride?

Just pre ordered a Expride b 7'2' glass m/h.

TB gear review= buy the best

Tim, which model expride would you recommend for a swim jig application? Could that be a dual use rod for other applications as well?

Would the Expride B in 7'2" ml be able to throw 1/16 ounce marabou jigs w/o trailer?

Rounding out winter? We just got 2' of snow in SE New England!

What color is that shallow world minnow? It looks silver with a black head and I can’t find that color anywhere.

Quick question on Expride: I’m a kayaker and like sub-7’ rods. Have my eye on the 6’ 10” MH as an all-arounder (smaller jigs, chatterbaits, spinnerbaits, T-rigs, etc). But I really like softer tips for accurate casting around docks and skipping overhangs. Does the shorter-length Exprides still retain a soft-enough tip for those applications? Even light frogging? Thanks!

I ordered the 7” Medium Expride. Do you think this will be good for senkos? What else will it be good at? Will it be light as a feather and sensitive, and good enough to catch some big bass?

I knew you guys couldn't pass up talking about the new expride this week haha.

What Shimano reel will balance well with a Expride B 6’8” M spinning. I have 21 Exsence. Seems a tad tip heavy. Undecided between a Exsence Ci4+ and 20 Twinpower. Either would be in a C3000mhg. Thanks.

I know this video is a month old or better but I have a question if anyone could give me some advice. I want to buy an all purpose spinning rod and specifically want to get an Expride. I love to throw DT 4s and other square bill cranks as well as small to medium sized spinner baits and soft plastics such as 3" Nikko Craws and Hellgrammites as well as some ZMan soft plastics. My question is would a 7ft. Medium or a 7'2" Medium Heavy be my best option as an all purpose rod? I'm going to get a Shimano Vanford 2500 or 3000 to pair with it. Any insights or suggestions would be much appreciated. God bless.

I have a question, there is 2 610 medium models, I don’t know which one is the correct one for jerkbait

What's good all around in the new expride?? Never use a expride before

Can’t wait to get my hands on all of theses....especially the Expride. Makes you wonder what’s next for he Poison Adrena.

Which Model for throwing Spinnerbaits?

I hope they bring a weed less version of the burrito out soon.

I’m looking for a good jig rod. Do you think the 7’2” heavy would be a good jig rod? I was thinking about the MB P5 X-Bites. How do you think the expride fairs against the P5?

Would you guys know if TW will be getting the new 5 inch burritos?

The changes the 7’3 extra heavy to a mod fast..is it similar to lasts years model? Did they make the 7’2 heavy stiffer so you can throw frogs on it because I like that length better. Why did they do these things. Any input you guys could give I would appreciate it.

what microphone are you using?

I was considering getting a 7’3” XH Expride for frogs. But now that the new model is listed as a 7’3” XH Mod/Fast instead of the fast I’m hesitant. Is the new 7’3” XH Expride B still a true frog rod?

All expride b rods pull apart at the reel seat

Is the 6’10” medium the Jerkbait rod you guys recommend?

Lookin at the expride a vs the expride b. The 6’10” medium a says it’s a fast action and the expride b says it’s a moderate fast. Can you tell much difference there between the two??

Hey Man, i always watch your videos, like it a lot but all the lures you use and show (hardbaits, crankbait,...), are not available in germany! There is also no US shop who's shipping to my country, to germany... I really want to fish with the lures you show but, what should i do? Did you got any idea? I hope you can read it and know what i mean... 🤦🤣👊

How about the NEW alderbaran BFS casting reel? Something for the Expride 7.2ML or other rods you got laying around.

can't wait for my t shirt that says burn burn burn pause!! anybody else want one??? Too much fun!!!

The absolutely worse placement to put a hook keeper on a rod-I don’t understand why they put them on the handle

How does the 7’2” ML spinning compare to the 6’10” ML spinning?

Is that rod the 6’10” medium or medium glass?

I have the 168L-BFS model

I just bought another zodias and they come out with this!!??

Great video as always. Personally I prefer the location of the hook keepers on the slx rods. Never been a fan of the ones below the reel but I guess it's personal preference.

Tim, I’ve been waiting to buy the 6’10” expride a for months now. I noticed that the Expride B model is a moderate fast and the A is a fast. Did you notice a difference, or was A more of a moderate fast action and they changed it accordingly for the B. Thanks, you guys are awesome!

Just pre ordered 7 of the casting!!!!!

Love Matt Allen but Tim Little is absolutely carrying this channel on his back right now while Matt is taking care of his little baby. Congrats by the way to Matt.

Wonder why they changed the 7'11 xxh... It now can only handle up to 2oz.

Where's the World Popper flash?

@TacticalBassin Another awesome video. But have you guys ever thought about adding chapters to your videos. Because most the time when your showing products or talking about products. There is a lot of things and products, that don't do me any good in my neck of the woods. So it would be great to just click on the section I need to watch. Without skimming through video trying to find where to go.

Strike king "bandito bug"

Well I just bought an Expride A. Guess I should've waited

Only issues with those handles is they scratch easily...won't affect the performance, but for a rod of that price...

Those expride b’s will be a seller. Unfortunately I just bought a new zodias

That burrito hook is not a very good stout hook.

You use Tallon shallow water anchors. How have they held up, and have you had any issues.

Simyewlar

During the start of Covid I was forced to throw the Googan Bandito bug because it was literally the only creature bait on the shelves. Honestly mind blowing it out perform the rage bug at least 7 to 1 me this past year.

2nd

No. My wallet can’t take it.

I live my Expride but I really don’t think it’s as sensitive as you guys make it out to be yea that’s something I hate no hook keeper on my 260 dollar fishing pole for 220 you could have an Avid X and I feel it’s the same rod with a hook keeper and now almost 100 cheaper . Change the handle add a foot of that protection coating that I feel stiffen’s the rod loosing sensitivity , good luck people Tactical Sales men at it again
