Re: St Croix LE for dropshot

I own the LE 7' ML from back when the blanks were brown and had the frosted reel seats. It is a great DS rod, the upper 20% of the upper rod is very lively, then shuts down quickly.

Bought 2 reels from Mark locally. He was prompt meeting with me, and everything went super smooth, same as in previous transactions.
Excellent seller.

Re: What Frog Rod Do You Use?

Also got me a Daiwa Steez XBD this spring so looking forward to using it for frogs and even pitching 1/2oz and heavier jigs. I used to use a first generation Legend Tournament 7'6" MHM for hollow body frogs and it did a good job.

Is that a Phase3 Nautilus? Itching more and more to get me one. Sweet setup. Plan on throwing jigs on it?

Re: R-ITO

Wicked! I like how the red on the handle sideplate ties in with the reel seat and the fore nut winding check. Fabulous looking setup.

Wish Abu would've kept those MG framed Morrums. Still waiting to track down an Ultra Mag, or UM S2.
Morrums and Conquests hold a special place in my heart
