I will protect your oufit with my life..

(BTW how much does a purple Newell, Calstar rod with a tog butt wrap and inlay cost )

The rod cost me $265.00.....without the tog skin extras that I did myself. Probably 8 hours of skin work, not including the tanning, defleshing and softening of the skin to make it workable. The thing is, I don't know if there is another one like it. I had pics of it posted in rodbuilder magazine website and out of every builder there, no one had ever heard of it being done. So......its basically priceless to me. The reel is expendable..165.00 would cover that...well...I DID upgrade the drags and the handle and I have 65lb suffix braid on it which might add another $55 bucks.
Just have fun with it Gerry ...and please do like LAB says and brush up on your spelling...its not "loose"...its "lose"

Spelling was never my strong suite (or is that suit ). Holding on to a $495 outfit in the dead of winter while drinking beer is not one either.

I was anchored up at the Rocks fishing one time in the late fall. I had just purchased my first decent outfit....A Loomis rod paired to a Avet SX and was fishing it for the first time..... We were using clams that day so my hands were pretty slimey. I get a huge hit and go to transfer the pole from my right hand to my left to set the hook. It never makes it and I watch in horror as it goes into the drink.

Luckily about a half hour later one of the guys we are fishing with snags the pole and we get it back... Thank God! That would have been a very long day of fishing for me...

Although I appreciate the offer, a man has got to know his limitations. I'm way too clumsy to be entrusted with an outfit like yours... Got any Penn Squiders laying around??

Sheesh. How can he possibly "just have fun with it", now that you've told him that you love that rod more than your first born?

24F, 25 kt winds, 3-5'ers, hands covered in crab slime or worse - gloves covered in crab slime... hard to have fun thinking about what happens when that "one of a kind... basically priceless to me" piece of graphite and tog skin slips out of numb, slimy fingers and goes "splash".

See you Saturday. Get your game face on - no more of this "I got lucky" blather. BOW... you pick the side. Bring that nice antler J hook.
