My winter purchase intentions has changed, I was going to go with the Team Pro on the 6"10"MXF but was a little to light to balance it out so I did the next best thing, I went with the Lew's Team Gold w/a 7.1 gear ratio for the 6'10"MXF and on the 7'2"MHM instead of a Super Duty, I ended up going with the Original Lew's Team  w/ a 6.4 gear ratio. I had them out today and am really impressed, very n and just in time for soft water season,,,,,I think!! a pic of my new "TOOLS"

Nothing yet but on Sunday I'll be buying a shimano chronarch 200e7, a phenix recon 715, and a phenix composite x12 crankbait rod.

Loomis GLX CBR 783 and a 785.....Thought I would have a new Metanium 2013 by now but still not released.

im buying stock in Dobyns, Shimano and St. Croix. this thread alone, they have thousands in sales. lol.

 

heres mine

 

-Gen 3 SX paired with a Phenix recon

-Daiwa Lexa 100 with a 7-4 heavy Rage rod (awesome setup)

-Pflueger President with a BPS Carbonlite

I picked up a Powell max 683 which will get paired with my curado 51. Yesterday I picked up a 6'8 medium older cumara while I'm up in north jersey on vacation. I'll pair that with a chronarch 51.

Just picked up the 6'8" mhxf cumara tw has for $99 and got a lews tp for $77 off the bay, quite a nice setup for $180 bucks lol

My wife is loving enough to understand that when we get our tax return every year i buy a new set up.  Best wife ever...  My winter purchases were an Abu Garcia Orra S spinning reel for my St. Croix premiere, and a MH St. Croix Mojo Bass bait casting rod that I'm still looking for the right deal on a reel for.

I had two spinning combo gaps that needed filling/upgraded and added the following:

 

7' M Veritas paired with a Shimano Stradic 2500 spooled with 20# Power Pro for most soft plastics (Senkos, etc);

 

6'9" ML Veritas paired with Pfleuger Supreme XT Size 30 (already had the reel) spooled with 6# XL for tubes, grubs and dropshoting.

I picked up the revo s and paired with a 7' MH veritas.

as did i

Just ordered a phenix recon 715, phenix x-composite x12, and 6'8" medium heavy shimano cumara since it was such a good deal. Also bought a chronarch 200e7 at bass pro today and will be getting a chronarch 50e for my cumara within the next few weeks.

 

Edit: Well this sucks, tw messed up while I was in checkout and the cumara sold out...and that was the rod I was looking forward to the most.

Picked up a BPS Pro Qualifier as my first baitcaster and put it on a MH lightning shock rod based on my budget. Loving my first baitcaster now and plan on adding a Lews Tournament Pro to my arsenal in the next few weeks!
