Basseditor Posted October 19, 2014 Posted October 19, 2014 I have several custom Kistler Z bones in the $500 range. Several other custom built rods in the $500 range, but my most expensive rod is a custom built split bamboo fly rod ($1200). Most of my reels are in the $300 category, except for the 10 $25 Academy Mettles (ha). Quote

masterbass Posted October 19, 2014 Posted October 19, 2014 A couple of years ago I read these types of posts and couldn't believe the money people put into combos and now I'm right up there with them, lol. I will say I look for sales and used stuff. My combo would have retailed for over $1000, but I spent $550 which is still a lot of money. Quote
Super User new2BC4bass Posted October 19, 2014 Super User Posted October 19, 2014 Most of my reels are in the $300 category, except for the 10 $25 Academy Mettles (ha). Wow. Got to try me one of those Mettles if they are good enough for you to have 10 of them. Need to wait for the $25 sale tho. Quote
Basseditor Posted October 19, 2014 Posted October 19, 2014 Wow. Got to try me one of those Mettles if they are good enough for you to have 10 of them. Need to wait for the $25 sale tho. I don't know if we'll ever see $25 Mettles again. The last two years they were $29. But now the retail price is more than when they were $49. I watch for Black Friday or other sales and stock up. Watching for sales is part of the fun. I have just about everything I need so I can be patient and watch for good deals. As far as Mettles, for the money, they are surprisingly decent. Quote
