dmat Posted March 1, 2010 Posted March 1, 2010 Been lurking for a while and thought I would jump in and post... Here is what I have so far...two rods are still being built as we speak...should have them in a couple of weeks! S781-1 IMX + Exist 1003 - all ultra light stuff SJ781 IMX (being built) + Steez 2500 - dropshot, splitshot SJ781 IMX + Core51 - all things finesse MB782 IMX (being built) + Core51 - topwater, jerkbait Steez Flexlite M + Steez 103HLA - cranks Powell 683C + Curado 201E7 - spinnerbait, senkos BCR803 GLX + Core51 - jigs I had way too many rods, reels and stuff I never used...so I have been selling for the better part of a year and trying to put together a smaller set of gear that would cover all of my needs...almost done! I really enjoy the forum and check it every day! Don Quote
