Outdoor Zack Posted November 8, 2015 Posted November 8, 2015 Got some cheap spinners, a spool of line, and worm hooks yesterday. I'm going to pick up some new tubes soon as well. That monkey just won't leave me alone! Quote

Super User MIbassyaker Posted November 9, 2015 Super User Posted November 9, 2015 nice pick up! how do you like that reel seat? I don't know yet -- I don't own a baitcasting reel! Total impulse buy. I'm a long time spinning-junkie, never even cast a baitcaster. I've known I wanted to get a nice mid-tier Fenwick for some time. And I've wanted to get a first baitcaster some time soon and start learning it. What I did not know was that my first casting rod would be a deeply-discounted, discontinued mid-tier Fenwick. So I now find myself in the market for a beginner-friendly casting reel. I have heard the seat on these rods doesn't fit some reels very well (some Shimano models in particular, if I recall), so we'll see. Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted November 9, 2015 Global Moderator Posted November 9, 2015 Finally broke down and ordered a Savage Gear 3D Shine Glide in Threadfin this morning, the 7.25" version. Suppose to get here Thursday. Sure hope it does so I can get it wet on Friday 5 Quote
illinifan4152 Posted November 9, 2015 Posted November 9, 2015 Ordered Tuesday, arrived Friday. Man, this thing is lighter than air: FenwickETS1.jpg FenwickETS2.jpg Ordered two on Friday, should be here Wednesday! I'll post pics when I get them! Quote
Super User Master Bait'r Posted November 11, 2015 Author Super User Posted November 11, 2015 It's been a while since I've stopped by but I just picked up a really nice little Deps and I'm pretty stoked on it. In other news I'm going to be liquidating a whole bunch of gear to consolidate and reconfigure since it's pretty much ski season now for me. 6 Quote

boostr Posted November 11, 2015 Posted November 11, 2015 THE BAIT GODS WERE LOOKING OUT FOR ME! So to make a long story longer... I've been saving for a FF so I haven't spent any money on other fishing related items for the past month and a half, and it might be another month before i can buy the FF. The struggle is reel . Anywho, out of the blue my lovely wife comes to me with a 50 dollar Mastercard gift card... (Drops mic and walks away) 3 Quote
boostr Posted November 11, 2015 Posted November 11, 2015 Spent it all at Siebert's the same night, on some Derockers, Arky , and swim jigs 3 Quote

fisherrw Posted November 11, 2015 Posted November 11, 2015 I have to make a 500 dollar order from TW soon lost so many cranks this year its unreal!! Quote
Super User kickerfish1 Posted November 11, 2015 Super User Posted November 11, 2015 Ordered a 2nd Exscence DC. It is the only reel I have a duplicate of. At this point I have yet to find a better performing and more fun to use reel. Have not sorted out its mate yet as the rod search will continue through the Holidays. The MB Levante is among the contenders... 2 Quote
