Awesome to hear. Congrats! I plan on getting the 893 in the new GLX line. I will pair it with a Steez 100, and use it for senkos.

Casting: -G Loomis NRX 802C JWR/Daiwa PX68L -Dobyns DX701C/Shimano Conquest 51S -St Croix LTBC69MLXF/Yellow Pixzilla Spinning: -Up until I broke it last year, I used a St Croix LES70MLF/Daiwa Fuego 2500. I am in the process of using the Gold Star + Upgrade Plan to acquire a LXS70MLF. It will be paired with a Daiwa Certate 2500.

There was a time when we'd take a guy like you in the back, and beat you with a hose. Now you've got your GD unions.

I'll take it. Lol.

I have the Antares AR, as Shimano does not offer a lefty in the Calais 100 platform. The reel is ridiculously smooth, and it feels bullet proof. I use mine as a cranking reel, and it is outstanding for this presentation. I believe the AR holds 110 yards of 10lb.

I have a feeling you will be buying some more combos in the future. Good luck Buddy!

I was thinking the same thing...awesome. Those sticks surely don't get enough love. I am really hoping Shimano surprises us this summer with their replacements.

I dumped Hughes for Masterson at the beginning of the season, so that has worked out well so far. Lol. I so wanted J Up this year, but my draft position kind of prohibited me from getting a shot at him. I had my fingers crossed he would be there at the end of the third round...almost made it.

Bummer for those who have Greinke and/or Reyes. I cannot believe Masterson has been my Ace to this point.

Yea, that was beyond bad...even Nathan said something about it. Any clue on what's Doc Halladay's deal guys?

I heard it that night on Quick Pitch and couldn't stop laughing. It looks like Roberts will be out 2-4 weeks. http://sports.yahoo.com/news/orioles-roberts-miss-2-4-181026922--mlb.html

Looks like a pretty nasty hammy injury.

I got wins so far from Verlander and Hammel...we'll see if Cahill can keep it going tonight. No dingers yet though.

Thanks. This is going to be tough for me, as I have such a hard time taking pitchers early. My mocks, so far, have went pretty well. Yup, I think he is slated to start at 3B.

I can't wait to try the new Rouge!

We have our 12 man H-H draft Friday night. I am picking at the 12 spot, and have never drafted on the turn before; I have always been somewhere in the middle. Does anyone have any tips or suggestions? Has anyone been watching V-Mart this Spring? Apparently the Crew signed a lamp post yesterday: http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2013/03/brewers-sign-yuniesky-betancourt.html

Thumbs can really be bad. The first thing I thought about after hearing this was Bonifocio from last year. What position did you have him slated at?

I wouldn't feel too bad, they look like they may win the Central this year. On a Central-related note, the Crew signed Lohse. A bit too rich for me. http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2013/03/brewers-to-sign-kyle-lohse.html

A t-rigged Baby Rage Craw was my number one producer from the dock last year. I generally fish with a 3/16-1/4 oz tungsten bullet weight, and sometimes I add a bead.

The Emerald Shiner pattern is going to get straight up bit on my home lake.

I forgot to add that if you want to stick with a domestic reel, the Calcutta TE 101GT is worth a look. I really wish Shimano made a 101 in the Calcutta DC

Outstanding; just what I am looking for. Thanks.

A Conquest 51 or the 101DC would make for a heavenly combo.
