i have a shimano 330ld mounted on a custom canal bait and tackle 6ft boat rod, both in pristine condition, that i will simply give to the highest bidder above $100. the rod has been sitting for a couple of years, and would love to see it be put to good use. hopefully someone will act on this as it is virtually like new.

i know too well the situation that joe is facing, and commend this site for reaching out, every bit helps. i wish you all the best joe!

very nice of you . I am not sure anyone will see it in this post so I suggest you put up a new thread, like I had to do, and state what you are going to do. something like Rod and Reel for Joe in main title box , and then write what you wrote above in the message box. I think that would get more views. Good luck. Paul

I second this...I just want to send the guy some cash pronto. Is there an email address we can just send cash to?

will do paul... thank you.
