Just thought I would like to share my joy.

Today I bought myself an early Christmas gift. Purchased 2 BPS Nitro baitcasters, 6.2-1 gear ratio,

and 2 St.Croix Mojo Bass rods, 6'6 MH rods. Wanted to get them now so I could fish them before my lakes close for the season. Nothing worse than getting a new combo and having to wait till the lakes thaw.

I have already had them in the back yard this morning playing with them. I am going fishing Saturday.

I AM ONE HAPPY CAMPER.

Good fishing guys.

ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is only the beginning. I hope for your sake you have a steady income.

Hey Vinny , he's been fishing longer then you've been alive . He's probably got equipment older than you.

Got ya. Misunderstood the situation

Congrats!

Hey Bass-brat, actually you are correct. I have an extensive baitcasting reel collection. In fact, I have tackle older than I am, {if you can believe that}. For starters, I have a meiselbach baitcaster with the manufacture date stamped on the side, June 3, 1909. I probably have about 50 old lures, dating back to the 40's.

By the way the Meiselbach is a Takapart No. 480. Most of my collection I have had since the mid seventies, purchased at yard sales and flea-markets at a time when no one else was interested. The stuff is getting hard to find these days.

Sounds to me like you've got one heck of a collection !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
