Congratulations gameover. Welcome to the club

Flechero, Thanks very much for the advise. I will take it and not buy one of those Daiwa reels.

Thank's guys, and thanks Catt for the Alodine info.

No Dick's in California unfortuntely.

Luhr Jensen Speed Trap is one of my all time favorites. I like the craw finish in 1/4 oz the best.

There is nothing like catching peacocks.

Very nice fish Avid. I will pray to the bass gods for a 10 lb+ for you as well.

Very nice fish T.

Where was it caught? What did it supposedly weigh?

Profanity for releasing a fish? next time, "bust a cap". ;D

I'm glad you got it Ronnie, enjoy it in good health my friend.

Absolutely. I am hoping that I can convince Abel Reels to do this special finish for me. It will look pretty cool once it's all said and done.

I am 100% with RW on this one.

Thier site lately SUCKS. I tried to place an order last week and ended up having to call it in instead.

I'm having the reel redone in a "special" anodized finish. I will be sending you the reel ReelMech to take it apart and then send the housing back to me so that I can get it done. Wait til you see the finished product.

Check out the Daiwa Big Bait reel. I'm looking at one next.

I remember the old dial up days. Night and day difference man.

Guys I need your help! I need to figure out what TYPE of aluminum this reel is composed of. It is the Apha Ito 103 Does anyone know or can someone direct me to smoene who would know? Thanks so much. I know it's aluminum but is it 6160 or???

I'm not much into these fights but for free, I will watch it. I'm more into boxing.

I was expecting to see a picture of MUDDY! ;D ;D

Ok, that was good.

Happy birthday to you!

Fascinating. Thanks for the link.

I wouldnt buy one. I have two spinning reels - a stella 3000 for bass and stripers and a Stella 1000 for trout. I don't think I'll ever need to buy another coffee grinder.
