How about everybody with a camera and fishing equipment takes some photo's and post em' up here for everyone to see  8-)

I'll Start. BPS Carbonlite/Falcon Bucoo/ 65# Power pro/ BPS Spinner bait in FireTiger.

Your turn! 8-)

Here are my newest reels.  Just came in today.  The Revos I sold paid for these.  In terms of smoothness, the Stradic has VERY little on the Symetre.

my pictures arnt as pretty as you guys...

sqhertz, those are some fine pictures don't say they aren't. But as a tip nothing beats natural light when it comes to photo's  8-)

just a few of my toys. some are really good pics from my real cam and setup to look nice and a few with phone cam and dont care about how they look lol.

and a few more

Those two round reels are very.....colorful....

I never liked the Anodized pink color on the Ito but I own all the Limited Ito reels and LOVE them all no Daiwa collector/Enthusiast's collection is complete without all the Daiwa/Ito limited stuff... HOWEVER I have 6 M-Ito's, 5 lites and those reels are fishing machines... (Two of the Ito's are new in box and 1 lite is new in box in the reel display case)

Those "Colorful" round reels are casting beasts... they will both go VERY low in casting weight and preform as good as pretty much any low-pro and out preform A LOT of them... The M-lite's are one of my fav reels and IMHO the best casting round reel one can touch... with the ZPI Shallow spool (The one in the pic has the deep spool) my other 3 all have the shallow spool (the new in box one has stock spool). can cast 1/8oz with ease on the right rod.. and go even lower if you went down in line size.. I dont know where the would bottom out but I can tell you its low All the ones that I use have ABEC 7 orange seals (New in box are all stock to uphold resale value).

Here are a few random ones I like of my picture collection and some of my older gear.

I was using a Kodak Zi8. A little beast for video, but for photo's all I have is Auto and Macro.

Russ, thats on sick looking Fuego

Daiwa Sol on a St Croix Legend Tournament M/F, these were purchased from forum members 8-)

Daiwa Fuego on an Avid MH/F

That's the sweetest Fuego I've ever seen.

That's the sweetest Fuego I've ever seen.

Thanks. It's got a Zillion HLC spool, ceramic hybrid spool bearings, smooth-drag washers and an HSTA 4-bearing 90mm handle.

Curado 301D on Okuma 7'6"H and a little 3:16 to wet your whistle.   

I'm glad I'm not the only one with cork that looks like it gets used regularly.  I really need to clean mine up somehow.  Some of the fillers have come out.

Chronarch 51mg on a custom spiral wrapped Alpster rod, 6'8" MH Shikari pitching BEAST.   ;D

SBJ what kinda reel is that with the clear side cover? Is that an after-market part or did it come stock, seeing the gears is so sick! ;D

I think dirty ork gives rods character IMO.

And to fill in missing clumps of cork take a cork form a wine bottle and sand it down till there's nothing left. Then mix all the shavings with glue and fill in the cork.

Pardon me while I retrieve my mouth from the floor...

Thats a Daiwa Alphas Ito Ai... very sweet reels... a little hard to keep looking reel good.. but they are light lure casting machines... And rock solid brutes that handle anything as long as lots of line cap. isnt needed...

I have 5-6 of them that I fish and a few new ones and love them all.. the fish like a pro and look pretty sweet to! they clear polycarbonate palm side plate looks pretty sick.

4 of mine have ABEC9's on the spools and 2 have Orange seal ABEC7's let me tell you with a those bearing upgrades on the right rod and right line they can get down really low in casting weight... ide say they pretty much bottom out around 3 to 3 1/2 grams...Also just to let you know they can be found for really good prices.. I bought 2X new in box ones for 395.00 for both (These are in the Reel display case never fished)... and dont think i paid over 180 for the others and all was in very good to mint condition... ones with some boat rash can be had 150ish... plus they just fit inside your hand so perfectly..

So it came with a clear side plate?

And have been eyeing some Daiwa Zillions. 

Yep, it comes that way.

Ito is a pretty distinguished designer. If I am not confusing him with another, he also does (or did) work for Megabass on some of their cooler looking baits.

I have an Ito Pop Max that is just sick looking.

how much for that deps reel?

Some nice gear so far...

A few of mine:
