ive got 3 more old reels to practice on but im not doing anything until i get an airbrush.

80 yards is a long cast.

i just tried to do my first repaint on an old daiwa 1500. everything went ok until i started taking the tape off the frame and side plate and found out that paint still got where i didnt want it. after cleaning the paint out of the places i didnt want the paint the frame looked like crap. anyone have any tips on repaints?

i dont know a lot, but i know youre going to like that reel.

x2 with a spool of yo-zuri on the side.

i have a rod and a hand full of plastics in my service truck year round. never know when youll be taking lunch next to the water.

the sad part is it wouldnt be suprising to see true storys like that one.

ive never heard that song i just read the story on another forum and thought it was funny.

This took place in Charlotte North Carolina. A lawyer purchased a box of very rare and expensive cigars, then insured them against, among other things, fire. Within a month, having smoked his entire stockpile of these great cigars, the lawyer filed a claim against the insurance company. In his claim, the lawyer stated the cigars were lost 'in a series of small fires.' The insurance company refused to pay, citing the obvious reason, that the man had consumed the cigars in the normal fashion. The lawyer sued and WON! (Stay with me.) Delivering the ruling, the judge agreed with the insurance company that the claim was frivolous. The judge stated nevertheless, that the lawyer held a policy from the company, in which it had warranted that the cigars were insurable and also guaranteed that it would insure them against fire, without defining what is considered to be unacceptable 'fire' and was obligated to pay the claim. Rather than endure lengthy and costly appeal process, the insurance company accepted the ruling and paid $15,000 to the lawyer for his loss of the cigars that perished in the 'fires'. NOW FOR THE BEST PART... After the lawyer cashed the check, the insurance company had him arrested on 24 counts of ARSON!!! With his own insurance claim and testimony from the previous case being used against him, the lawyer was convicted of intentionally burning his insured property and was sentenced to 24 months in jail and a $24,000 fine. This true story won First Place in last year's Criminal Lawyers Award contest.

IMO, to get the best performance out of a daiwa with a free floating spool is to make sure there is some endplay in the spool then learn to cast the reel. once you get used to the reel youll find the thing cast like a dream.

id keep your old boat if its paid for.

375 times i hear. thats over 2 times a lap cars were blocked down all but into the grass.

how many were there that are comparable to the vickers/jr block?

People block every lap. They cannot come out with a rule to deter it. The reality of it is that JR should have gotten a 5 lap penalty for rough driving just as Jason Leffler got it the day before. that really doesnt answer the question. i really didnt see many drivers getting blocked like vickers blocked, every lap. im also not debating if jr should have received a penalty, just a statement or opinion on my part that if youre going to block you might get yourself in trouble.

shouldnt a driver assume theres a risk involved in blocking? a few more crashes like yesterday and i wonder if we will hear anything from the powers that be.
