well somone will be happy when they find it
About half way through my cast, the bail on my real slammed shut and my beautiful Tattoo Tackle Sea Dog went flying into the dark ocean. I then realized, “maybe I should get myself a bailless reel.”

My AH creamsicle spook is floating east as we speak, heart broken. That was one of my best plugs, actually the colors were reversed compared to the ones Don makes now. That plug crushed fish  .......
I always wanted to hang it, as it took my biggest fish, but I just could not pull it out of my bag

Used hard and put away dirty....

Penn ss series reel would be my guess. Go bail-less, young man.

Anyone know any shops in the south shore or RI area that I can go put my hands on a VS250? I like to get my hands on stuff before I drop that much cash on it
