This is soooo wrong!

This past weekend I bought a new Shimano baitcasting reel for a friend (his reel has been screaming and I got tired of hearing it).  It was on sale for 56 bucks.  Anyway, he will now have a better reel than I own.  How wrong is that!

Your unshelfishness will come back to you 100 times over.

You did a good thing.

Congrats.

I end up in that situation with my girlfriend all the time  

But like Sam said, you did a good thing.

At least you don't have to hear his old reel anymore. ;D

What's really wrong about it is that he usually outfishes me, too. ;D

Haha, I did the same thing for my brother earlier in the year cuz he was fishing with $40 combos from Dicks and they would just fall apart. The monkey got on my back and I ended up getting him a combo from Cabela's that at the time was better than any I owned. I kept asking him if I could make a couple casts with it, and he joked, "No, it's my rod!" ;D

It definitely feels good to give though, and now, thanks to this site, come springtime I'll have some really sexy combos for myself

I feel for you if you were able to one up what you have.....with a Shimano. ;D

Maybe you should have kept the new reel and given your buddy your old one?? In any instance, what you did WAS a VERY NICE thing and nice things happen to people who do nice things. Isn't that nice:o)

I thought about swapping them out and giving my friend the old reel.  But that would be tacky and not very generous.  It doesn't matter anyway.  It's just money and at the end of the day it isn't about how much money or how many toys we have.  Besides, I'm already blessed. :)
