Mail call! :) Here's more Rebels and a vintage Rabble Rouser Angel Eye. These are all discontinued baits or In the case of the Rabble Rouser they are shut down. This particular Rabble Rouser never left the factory and was hand picked from one of the bins.(fn1)

FN1. I know the guy who sold me the Rabble Rouser, he's close personal friends with Doug Parker, the owner of the company.

Oh well...  That's what I get.  Just picked up a 7'1" 13 MLXF *** Black spinning rod to put my Supreme XT to use that's been collecting dust.  It's going to be my tiny jig, teensy weensy t-rig and drop shot rod.  Can't wait to get that thing spooled up.  Gotta love that $5 two-day shipping!   

This is my last week of physical therapy so I bought something stupid on eBay. Pics when she gets here!

My New Whopper Plopper 190, SK spinner, Lipless,and a jointed bait I got passed down from my uncle when he passed.

 

But I love looking at the size difference between the 90 and the 190. I do have an order of 8 more SK red eyes and a 130 version of the plopper from TW due Thur.

For sure. It's a nice boat. I was just curious. I got a 2014 115x for $999 plus $99 shipping. Came with a paddle, zooka tube rod holder,trolley kit, and 3lb anchor. I upgraded to a bending branches angler classic paddle for another $50.

You ordered it online and got it shipped? Did you demo it?

First time shopping on Siebert's website.....good for Mike, bad for my bank account, because I LOVE jig fishing and skipping docks. 

Wow this *** is sick. Color me stoked to call out of work tomorrow and fish it all day!

Yes...yes they are!!!

I have he exact same rod paired with a stradic ci4+ 2500...Its a filthy little combo

Here's one of the pictures I promised. Got a bit lucky on this one. :eyebrows:

Man that is the holy grail of reels, even with a few dings!

Yar! The condition is overall pretty good, just a few dings and one dark mark above the gear ratio number. She needs new knob caps but that's easy. I'll get some more pictures up tonight, hopefully with a fish or two. :thumbsup4:

Excellent! From my understanding there were only about 200 of those made. Sounds like you locked in a rare gem. Two questions if I may:

1. What did you purchase the reel for? (seemed to recall these being over $500 new)

2. Do you have an exquisite rod planned for the reel and since it is based off the Zillion platform what do you invision using it for?

3. How do you feel it performs over the stock zillion when casting?

Got a tackle warehouse gift card for my birthday, that helped convince me I "needed" a new crank bait setup. Went with a okuma Helios tcs reel with a okuma tcs rod 7' medium moderate. My first higher end reel, and she's beautiful!

Honestly, this thread might as well be pinned.

Looks like there is a good chance of me ordering this stuff!
