    That's my case with the Digitaka order right now. I have a tracking number on the rod and it seems to have been sitting at the origin office since Friday. Wanted to wait for the rod before I ordered a reel from them, to make sure the weight would balance the rod correctly. Now worried that the wait may be too long and that I should order the reel right away.

    I have sent Digitaka an email but to no avail so far.

    I too, have 2 rods from 2 different Digitaka orders that have been sitting in Osaka. Perhaps if we all order more stuff, they will charter a plane just for us. It is what it is..as the wise man said - "These are the times that try men's souls". Keep safe.

    I'd appreciate if you could update when your rods move past acceptance in Osaka. About a week later, mine is still at that stage. I received a response from Digitaka yesterday that they would look into that. I will see if they follow up.

    Thanks. I am glad to hear things are moving along. May I ask when did you order the rods?

    I ordered my Tict Rockin’ Power on 3/25 and they tried to deliver it to my home on 3/31 but I was working... picked it up on 4/1... how long ago did you all order? I put in an order for some jigheads, line, and a reel yesterday and hope it gets to me pretty quickly :/

    I placed my order with Digitaka on 3/26, and the rod has been sitting in Osaka in posting/ collection status since 3/28. No change so far, but I understand the delays are possible. The frustrating part is I need to order a reel for the rod and a whole bunch of line and jig heads, which I am running low on. But I need to put the rod in the hand first to see what reel weight will balance it best.

    On an unrelated note, I am now using my Ajing setup for its intended purposes – mackerel. So much fun fishing them from the rocks. Cultiva jig heads with Ring Kick Tails on 1.5 lbs ester work very well. Last time I landed about 20 fish in 2 hours of early morning fishing, the biggest being about 12 inches. Those little beasts are real fighters!

    It was either flown overnight or Japan Post is behind on their tracking. Keep checking yours.

    Diawa jig hooks are due to arrive tomorrow and plan to go and give them a go this weekend. Looking forward to see how they stack up.
