it's amazing wut they are doing with rods and reels these days eh' , started working for a sporting goods store a couple times a week again for the next month or two so i can get the 20% off.
Yeah it's way crazy to me. I'm 40 and have been fishing all my life. I can't believe the strength and sensitivity they can put into a rod now days compared to the shit we used to use. I still have cane poles I use every year for blue gill fishing out of the boat. 14 to 20 foot poles with 15-20 ft of line, it's so fun to catch anything on them, even a little fish feels big.
