Title: The New Wide Cortez Conversions Jigmaster
Post by: Maxed Out on July 30, 2023, 04:26:52 AM
Just built this today and all I gotta say is wow. The spool is a Tiburon p20, and the rest is all Tom's creations. Them fish better run and hide. Thank you Tom for your relentless pursuit of form AND function

Wow, wee buddy lol!
Look at that killer, all blacked out, like a silent assassin, just lurking there waiting!
So much, for me staying with my, everything's gotta be blue concept lol!
That is one sweet looking reel, wow!
And that handle really tops it off!
How much wider does this wind up being then a regular jigmaster?

That is a very serious looking reel.The cut outs in the bars are the only way I would ever recognize it as a Jigmaster. Beautiful. I hope you catch some huge halibut with it!
Best, John

I would like to build one of those in a different color scheme however only Black shows to be in Stock at the Cortez Conversions Site. Hopefully they will make more colors soon . :(
 

Plus it is unclear WHICH of these Spools to use on the Tiburon Site

(http://cliftonfarmersmarket.createaforum.com/gallery/cliftonfarmersmarket/1-300723072949.jpeg)

The post says (The spool is a Tiburon p20 ) However there is no part number p20
Does the poster Maxed Out know which of the ones is required .
Thank you in advance for some clarity in this .

 The correct spool for this reel is a "P20WS". This is for jigmaster 500. The WS means "wide spool"


 The "P20WS HS" is for the "high speed" 505 Jigmaster

Sexy

If I didn't already have two hot rodded and two stock Jigmasters I'd be all over this.

 This one is approximately 3/8" wider than a jigmaster 500.

 This reel has 55 seconds of Freespool. That's the big difference between bushings and bearings.
