I'm with RW post #179. That being said, being an old guy and applying the "Buffet Theory" I have also accumulated much fishing tackle over the years including collector type items. It goes with the territory! I sure love looking at everyones tackle though, and wish all posters & members happy and highly successful fishing! Thank you all so much for sharing, it helps pass the cold weather months.

6'5 m   shimano cumulus   shimano sustain 1000

6'9 ml  phenix m1              shimano stradic 1000 ci4

6'3 m   fenwick et-sm        shimano stradic 1000 fj

6'8 ml  dobyns champ       Needs a reel, probally throw on another 1000fj

 

Next rod will be the new cumara, either the 6'8 worm rod, or dropshot model.

Next bc combo im thinking will be a cumulus/core 51 combo, still up in the air if i want to give baitcasters a chance again, lol.

Here are a few of my new "Custom" Ambassadeur reels,and new rods to go with them. The reels are (2) 250C's,(2)4500C's,and a 5500C. The rods are a Zombie 7'4" med heavy,Megabass. G-AX, Megabass Jabberwok,Irod 693 med heavyset, and a Phenix PHX 683. All the reels have been upgraded with ABEC7 ceramic bearings,and Carbontex drag washers. The 2500CI's have gearing upgrades (5.3:1 on the Green reel,and 6.0:1 on the Gold reel). The Green reel also has an Avail light weight spool, and both reels have swept drag star wheels,and handles.The other 3 reels have dual bearing worm gears,and cog wheels,and driveshaft bearings,and the Black 4500C,and Violet 5500C have ABEC 7 ceramic bearings,and Avail lightweight spools. The Violet 4500C has all the bearing upgrades,and lightweight spool,but the spool spins on polished brass bushings.
