Canal and rigged eels,,,Lami GSB 1201m cut back 6" from butt, with a Abu7000 Big Game.... for needles and swimmers- Lami GLB1081L, with a Penn 650SS- both rods I wrapped myself w cork tape butts- no reel seats Sic guides... Nothing fancy- but they work for me.

Just did the same this morning! The Rainshadow donated by Capesam for the katrina raffle. going to eat a fast breakfast and go give it a work out!

Still love my Allstar 1265-2 by Saltheart, too!

I also picked up a rainshadow 1088 from mike....I used it all the time...and love it....it is my favorite..for now
