Born To Be Wiiii-iiild....

From the 'Dammit-I-Meant-To-Post-This-A-Coupla-Months-Ago' file - or possibly the 'Hey, you goofy old bastard, don't post crap until you're fully awake because you ALREADY posted this photo a coupla months ago' - but I don't think so - anyhooooo....

This is the chromed 704 I've been using for all my eeling this season - it was a gift from the esteemed Senor Habs (El grande artiste Americano) The mojo on it felt good from the git-go and so far - given the off and on again fishing - it's been berry, berry good to me.

Something about it always reminds me of an old school Harley 74 chopper -

Got it paired up with the old Murat 10'6" honey glass Lami - it's a funky retro set-up and it works like a bastid, as we used to say on the wharves of my yout' - usually over a coupla long-neck Narries -

I know I've chirped about it before, but I figured I'd post it after finding the image while I was pooping around in Photoshop earlier.

"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.
