Looking for a Chronarch 50mg
 

Been looking to get my hands on one for awhile. If someone sees one please shoot me a pm

Chronarch 100d7 imo one of the top 3 reels, the older one

Looking for a light reel.

Here are 2, but they will probably end up with a price over a NEW Chronarch 50e, not worth it IMO. 50e weighs just barely over the 50 mg.Just a suggestion, if you cant find what your looking for, at a good price.

50mg is 5.9. oz
50e is 7.1oz

Yeah thats not too much if you think about it, here is one but it says SPF .
If you want extreme light, Shimano Core 50MG is 5.5oz

Doesn't MG mean magnesium. Isn't that not good for salt water ?

It corrodes alot easier, thats why alot of people dont buy the core but will buy the next best, the chronarch.

I've seen those cores corroded bad. I will stick with my Chronarchs. 2 oz mean crap to me. I don't know why all these guys that are done by 8 with a limit of trout care about the weight. Seems by their reports that they only throw 40 times a morning anyway.

There's a few on the side of the road ob the way to heberts......they cone with free waterloo rods

That's where Cores belong. :cool:

Honestly just wanting something "new" for wading. Lewd has a real light one just not sure if I wanna drop the cheddar

Why pay 400 for a real meant for bass and won't hold up for salt water. B/C it's the lightest ? The only way I'd get one is if they would swap it as soon as it would corrode. I'm sure it's the baddest thing cranking but hey If you got it $$$ Rock It.

Yeah why I was looking for an older chronarch.

You will like the 50 Chronarch, it may be a tad heavier but its a very nice reel .

I will check it out for sure.

I still got a bantam 100 chron. I've had for 15 years.

I got the 100d7 chron. 50mg core, and new chron....hands down new is lighter i think but 100d7 iz the sheet and will not buy another core...jmo

You will if you wanna be cool !!

You might look for one of the curado 50e's. They weigh 6.9oz. I got one and I love it

Ive got a few cores that ive had since they came out fished in salt only and no corrosion issues. It all about how you take care of your equipment.

Does that mean break em completely down after every use ?

why is "lightest" the latest rage????

Just curious.

No

Right on. I always hose them off good and break down and oil once a month. But as good as the Chron is :) I don't think that's a 380$ risk I wanna take.

THinks its the Obecety Epedemic they worried about.:D

I love my Cores........Just got me 3 more to replace the ones I lost.....

you want light.......use a core50mg with a waterloo Hp Light 6'8ft rod

if you fish 8-12 hours a day like I do most of the time...you want light equt

with rod 3oz and reel 5.5 oz you can use it all day

so you don't limit out every day by 7:30am? :p

I never wanted to spend the money on a core until I fished with one on my last trip. after fishing with a core on a 3oz rod, everything else feels like a brick. makes you kinda scratch your head when you change rods and realize the difference.

who said I stop fishing at my limit:p:p:p:p

I like to catch and throw back or look for more top secret spots:smokin:

Why 50's and not 100's?????

Anyone used the Team Lews pro?

Would love some feedback on this reel as well. Currently all of my reels are the Tourney Pro's. Thought they were nice until I fished with one of Capt. Hebert's cores. Now, not so much... The Lew's pro lists at $300 so it's not that big of a bargain compared to the core.

So light they fly out the boat

I got one a couple months ago but have not used it enough to comment on it.

You will if you use it wadin' in Lake Ponchy. :rolleyes:

Lol

i use a Chronarch 50mg for wadeing and love it prolly the best casting reel i have used they are hard to find and expensive..... i have not had any corrosion issues as of yet i just rinse it after every trip and take it apart every 2-3 trips and apply corrosion x.

only the frame is MG side plates and nose are not.

check the 2 cool classifieds they pop up from time to time also check out he curado 50e

Preciate it Sabine. Can't get a response back from the one still on their classifieds.

50mg weight 5.5oz

100mg weight 6.1oz

100mg7 weight 6.7oz

A core 50mg and waterlooo rod cost about ?

I have a 50e, and agree with the others. It's a smooth operator.

I get a discount on both but normal price $594

Depends on which Waterloo... But minimum 500

Add i think 60-80 for recoils, i had 690 for both.

HP Light split grip with Recoils are about 225 Retail ..just ordered 3 of them this week...

Buy a nice pistol for $594

you should pass on your discount and I'd buy a few.

and a nice rod n reel set up:cool:

Got a recoil that came un "done" how much is repair on that?, havent used it in months, hate sending stuff off for repair
