I ordered through Tackle Trap in AL. It’s not on my possession yet. That’s the Avail handle. 1 hour ago, Burrows said: How do you like it so far ? Was it worth it I canceled my order. You think you’ll be keeping this one? It shipped out today. I was waiting for some parts for it from Shimano. This was a finished pic after he installed them. If I don’t then I’ll sell it ha. 26 minutes ago, Big-Bass said: Nice reel. Where did you get those reel stands and what brand are they? I need a few. Thanks! Not sure of the brand. They’re are just plastic ones from overseas. I have a handful that I got on eBay. 2 Quote

The pliers I have are the larger #4's. They now have a cool bottle cap remover as well, not offered 7 years ago when I bought this set up. http://www.abelreels.com/pages/pliers.htm They offer different custom finishes as well as a nice leather sheath to carry on your belt. This black sheath was made for me by Arne, the gentleman that makes the sheaths for Abel. A few more pics. Another custom BBS. Detail view of the Megabass Purple Dragon. JDM Aldebaran with Bassart handle. Alphas Ito. Calcutta Cigar reel. Steez Blitz and Steez 103 in the back, the front set up is a JDM Steez Wylie paired with a 103. This rod is 96% fiberglass. Too bad they never released it here in the states, it's an awesome rod! My floating tackle box. ;D @Redlinerobert we sadly can't see them anymore would love to see custom reels as they are not that common around here ! @J Francho on the first page pic: I noticed LHR and RHR baitcasters. Are you using lefties for some technique like flippin/pitching ? Also, what is the spincast used for ? After using one lately, I wondered if I would not add a good ol' spincast to my arsenal for cranks ? I guess a spincast should fit any casting rod ? Quote

Its from a company called "Basszone" and I ordered it from Thailand on ebay. Fit and finish is just as good as the much more expensive Daiwa/RCS carbon handles, though you'll need a couple extra shims to get the wiggle out of the knobs if you don't use the ones that come on it Quote

I hope I like it as much as my old rod (gen 2 vs gen1) despite it is being shorter and a little bit softer tip but same 1/8-3/8oz lure weight. 3 Quote
