There are a couple ponds on campus that students have been releasing bass and panfish into. Saw at them at the school tour and knew I needed a frog, jig and some small plastics. These were the only rigs I brought with me. I knew that one good night at the campus bar would lead to a broken rod so I left all the nice stuff at home.

How do you like it so far?! I've been checking it out online a lot. Seems like an awesome reel even compared to my Stradic. I like how the Ultegra has a lot of the same higher end tech in it and durable sealed body.

I will need to put some work in on the water with it before I can actually make a statement about it but from my initial thoughts I would consider it a budget CI4+.  I initially wanted to get another Stradic fk but saw this on the fishusa website and decided to take a chance. Feels balanced in hand which is nice and weight wise it's right inbetween the fk and CI4+. Depending on what the local tackle shop has in stock I am probably going to run out and grab a rod to mount this on and take it over to the pond when it stops snowing. Maybe wake up a couple bass to see what the reel is made of.

The Orra has a new home.Budget cranking setup.

Mounted my Met on a Tournament Pro. 

This is what happens when you go to the store without the girlfriend…

Thanks! We go crappie fishing in the spring for several days, and last year was the first with that UL spinning setup and it was the best i've ever had. I haven't used the new casting setup yet, but the decision on what to buy was based on the UL experience. Sold my old (heavy power) setup to my dad because he likes fishing in underwater forests a lot more than i do.
