I have to thank my wife for being real nice while both of my arms are messed up. I can't fish and/or drive so I getting really bored. Today she drove me to Bass Pro Shops and I bought a new setup. Looked at a lot of stuff on the web and today at the store. Ended up buying a Bass Pro Johnny Morris Signature Series LH reel and a Bass Pro Pro Series Finesse 6'6" M action rod. I loaded the reel with 14# test Siffix Mono ( I like this line on another reel I have). Also went with mono, for now, to help keep costs down a bit. I got a good deal on the reel. The regular price is $179+change, they had at the store on sale for $149+change. Before I left home I looked on the website and it was listed at $129+change. Asked at store for the $129 price and got it at that. Not bad, $50 off. Just in time too, sale ends after tomorow. Looks and feels like a rear nice setup. The reel is exceptionally smooth with the 10 bearing + roller. Hopefully it will last as well as my very old Shimano Bantam that is about 30 years old and still looks and works like a new one.

Hi all. I'm from Berks Co. PA. I fish for fun and relaxation. I have a Lowe 14' V Hull and enjoy fishing from the boat. I also do bank fishing. Catching a lot of fish isn't that important, it more having a nice time. I recently finished rebuilding my boat and trailer. it took about 6 months to complete and many hours of work. Now that is finished I'd love to get it out on the water but my luck took that away from me. A work accident has both of my arms with broke bones and fishing is out of the question right now. I'm hoping I'll be able to salvage August and September. Other than fishing, I don't really do too much. My life is pretty much boring and I have very few freinds. Don't know why, maybe because I don't drink and act like a fool? Anyway, that doesn't matter. Hopefully I'll be able to bring something to the forum. I've been fishing for about 54 of my 55 years. I'm no pro and don't catch all that much but I try and enjoy myself, that's what counts to me. Thanks for having me here.
