Birthday present from my wife

Post by Aaronb » Fri Aug 08, 2014 2:51 am

My wife got me this reel for my birthday last month. I guess maybe you guys can ID it, but just in case it's a Megabass IS73C. :big grin:

Not sure what I'm going to use it for yet. I was thinking about getting a IS finesse spool or honeycomb spool and using it for finesse purposes. I hope the pictures came out okay. I haven't experimented with my wifes camera too much, but thought I'd try it out to share some pictures on here.

Thanks. I know that's for sure. She got me a Megabass Lin 10 Mars for Christmas. A Daiwa T3 Air for our anniversary. A Daiwa Z200, a Millionaire IZE light, and an Airy Red Pixy this year just because she wanted to. I definitely can't complain.

I know she spoils me. I did a little more experimenting with her camera and got a few better pictures.

I wish I had an ugly stik to set it on and take a picture for your benefit. Lol. I was thinking and ugly stik would match a Megabass Lin 258 really nicely. What do you think?

It's nice that she gave you a reel. Hopefully she will let you give her a rod for your other birthday present. ;) Is that too much to ask for your birthday?
