Golden Oak? Nice Job!

Looks like I was wrong most stores including Tackledirect are out of stock

TackleDirect

Ebay has them for 60 dollars

Lews Speed Spool

Yep,Plenty of options other than Hobie

I fish the Great Miami for Smallies,My number one stick is a Loomis E6X 803S JWR 6’8” MHXF.It handles any lure I want to throw and Is light and super sensitive.It also has enough backbone to handle any fish in current.

Stradic FJ

The HMG has the Alconites guides. $100

Love my BG 2000. 70 bucks on EBay

I have the Tatula 2500 on a 7'M Legend Elite and it's perfect.Super light and extremely well balanced.

My fishing partners brother is a Doctor who owns his own family practice.He joins us a few times a year. He only fishes with Zebco 33s,He could easily afford any setup he wanted but loves his Zebcos.

My son has one and loves it.It's taken on the best the Great Miami has to offer.Smallies,Catfish,Carp, Saugers and Saugeyes, Has it on a 7'1" Mojo

I have a first gen Villian 6'9" ML,I love it. It's light and has great sensitivity.I use it for wacky rigs in gravel pits and throw tubes when fishing the river.

Tackletour has just done a review on the new Shimano SLX

I have a E6X 803S 6'8" MHXF.It's light, sensitive and has plenty of backbone to fight the river Smallies I chase on the Great Miami. It's also balances well with a Stradic FJ 2500 I also have a E6X 852S JWR 7'1' MXF This rod just doesn't feel right,And I've been trying to sell it. My son fishes with Mojos and I like them and don't have any problems with them.I think with the SC3 blank your getting a lot of rod for your money.

I have Shimano Sidestabs from the early 90s Symetres from the 90s An Abu Super Seven rod I use for Catfishing from the 90s

My son uses a Sienna for Smallies and Catfish,He’s pretty rough on his gear and the Sienna has held up

I have a Legend Elite 7'MF with a Tatula 2500,Not tip heavy at all,Balances perfectly

I have a 2500 I use on a First Gen 6’9” ML Abu Villian and also on a 7’ MF Legend Elite It's super light with a great drag It balances great with my Legend eliminating all the tip heavy nonsense
