Mr. Macey it is a Stradic. It was easy I got a small bonus from work. So I got the 3 reels in the pic. She got a much bigger bonus so I told her to get herself something nice. :) :happy:

I want a VS!!! I'm envious of those who have them...
OK - I've said it...I feel better now :D
It is a lot of money.....but so what? Surfcasting is a cheap hobby. No boat to park, no boat gas to buy.
Many of the best active fishermen I've come across swear by them.
When you couple a VS with a good synthetic line, or a new-generation mono (like Yo-Zuri Hybrid) you really got some stopping power.
Guys can now throw thirty and fourty pound test (and up) with spinning. And if they hook into the fish of lifetime, they don't have to worry about losing the fish due the historical shortcomings of spinning.
I like my Penn, but I've felt how the drag comes off and I'm aware of how much maintainance it requires when I fish hard.

Easy, I dont have to. They day that she has to justify buying something she wants or the day I have to is the day we go into counseling. Lot's of people get caught up on money. Money means nothing, it's just a way to get what you want. Iwould rather be dirt poor, healthy and happy....than wealthy any day of the week.

Anybody can find happy by trying to find happiness. I can say that most of the people in the present generation are thinking that true happiness comes from acquiring possession or material wealth etc. In the materialistic society, it is not correct to say that we can find true happiness by obtaining car, money status.

The possession of wealth or money itself isn't happiness. By cultivating positive belief and positive mental states, and prying Almighty in the good environment, one can find happiness. In my view people miss their share of happiness not because they never found it, but because they did not dream to find it. Hence, one can find find happiness by trying to find happiness. Wish you all striper-bass members for finding true happiness in their life.
something about driving down the highway though with my big truck and boat attached still brings a smile too my face.


:D

True happiness is being able to live 5 minutes away from your favorite fishing haunt.

The rest of us malcontents have to drive a few hours...each way.

:D :smash:

Poor , happy and healthy is definitely better than rich and unhappy. Rich , happy and healthy doesn't sound too bad either! :)
