Thanks M+D'S

Decided to get back in coventional casting with a rod Mike did for me and picked up a tweaked out 7000 Abu from him also, All I can say is just got back from the field and average cast was about 450 ft. Had to leave because weight was stuck in the Trees..... I can smell 600 ft.

Over the Last Several Years HAB'S NEEDLEFISH Have Caught More "Confirmed" 30, 40, 50, and even 60 pound Striped Bass than any other Wooden Needlefish on the Market today. 2 Over 50lbs. and 1 Over 60lbs. in 2005 alone........... "HOOK UP WITH HAB'S" Your Best Bet For BIG BASS.....

Next season I will be 99% conventional.....its the balls! Casts great and you can't beat fighting a nice fish on a conventional rod and reel! Works plugs better too!

Go long and large Habs!

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

Oh man, I saw that reel earlier this year at Mikes'. Very nice. You did good. It wasn't for sale back then or I would have snapped it up.

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?
