Thanks, BW - I can do that - if da Mrs doesn't like it sounds like it'd be a good light(er) reel for me -

I still like the heavier Penns for later in the year - maybe not real impressive but the old #&**#% things workk as long as ya pay a little attention to 'em now and again.

Got my new chromed classic 'American Chopper' converted 704 to use this year - I'm gonna drill and port another one I got and a coupla 710's, too - the 704 is gonna look good hangin' off my Lami -

Gonna go back to basics this year, had all winter to ruminate on some new theories about old spots and techniques - they may just work, too.......

....we'll see.
