My mainstay last year was a 7 foot spinning built on a Lamiglass GW84ML, paired up with a Quantum E3-4 with 30/6 spiderwire. Light compaired to a lot of stuff you guys/gals throw, but I'm sometimes throwing smaller 4 inch plastics and I found this combo light, sensitive and capable of landing the bigger fish. If I'm throwing heavier plastic, then it's another 7 footer, Lami GLB841M and Shimano 3500 Baitrunner. Use that same rod on a casting blank and 6500-C3 Abu for ch#^^^^^&g & dragging live eels.
Looking into the new Lamiglass Ti series blanks for a couple winter projects, just need to get some pricing to see if it's worth while. Going to use my BPS gift certificate to upgrade to a Calcutta CT200A and the Shimano ST400FG for my plastics. Hopefully everyone's got plenty to keep them busy over the coming months, tight lines.
