Trying to figure out how long it's been since I last bought a  new rod.  Anybody tell me when my rod may have been made.

lightning rod  Hank parker LSS661M

Too long ago,  buy a new one....now......

lol

If you can't remember then it is time for a new one.

Do you still catch fish with it? If so, it's a keeper!

Given the company around here, the issue shouldn't be how may years between rod purchases, it's how many rods per year that you should be buying. ;D ;D

More seriously though, if you like your current rod, continue to enjoy it. However, if you're looking to justify a new purchase, I'm sure the baitmonkey is close by and will help you to quadruple your planned budget

Sorry, I'm no help to your inquiry.  But I'm just astonished that you've eluded the bait monkey this long.  I should check myself into bait monkey anomynous...tomorrow.  Agree that if it still catches fish, then keep on using it. 

If you are using the old rod to fish "moving"

lures, I don't think it makes much difference.

However, you need a new rod for jigs and

soft plastics. Today's technology makes old

rods obsolete.

I know for sure it's been atleast 10yrs. last time i bought a rod for myself, but i've up graded all my kid's equipment this past summer. now it's time for me to up grade, going to move in to bait casting this spring. I'll be looking for some help on another thread soon.

Thank' guy's
