Capt.Bob Posted March 15, 2013 Posted March 15, 2013 My winter purchase intentions has changed, I was going to go with the Team Pro on the 6"10"MXF but was a little to light to balance it out so I did the next best thing, I went with the Lew's Team Gold w/a 7.1 gear ratio for the 6'10"MXF and on the 7'2"MHM instead of a Super Duty, I ended up going with the Original Lew's Team w/ a 6.4 gear ratio. I had them out today and am really impressed, very n and just in time for soft water season,,,,,I think!! a pic of my new "TOOLS" Quote

Trackick9707 Posted March 17, 2013 Posted March 17, 2013 My wife is loving enough to understand that when we get our tax return every year i buy a new set up. Best wife ever... My winter purchases were an Abu Garcia Orra S spinning reel for my St. Croix premiere, and a MH St. Croix Mojo Bass bait casting rod that I'm still looking for the right deal on a reel for. Quote
Sherlock 60 Posted March 17, 2013 Posted March 17, 2013 I had two spinning combo gaps that needed filling/upgraded and added the following: 7' M Veritas paired with a Shimano Stradic 2500 spooled with 20# Power Pro for most soft plastics (Senkos, etc); 6'9" ML Veritas paired with Pfleuger Supreme XT Size 30 (already had the reel) spooled with 6# XL for tubes, grubs and dropshoting.

SoCalFisher Posted March 18, 2013 Posted March 18, 2013 Just ordered a phenix recon 715, phenix x-composite x12, and 6'8" medium heavy shimano cumara since it was such a good deal. Also bought a chronarch 200e7 at bass pro today and will be getting a chronarch 50e for my cumara within the next few weeks. Edit: Well this sucks, tw messed up while I was in checkout and the cumara sold out...and that was the rod I was looking forward to the most. Quote
