Whoa! Wicked nice stuff, Don. 10" needles mmmmmmmm....

More testing of the floating needle tonight. Took it for a quick swim last night, it casts like rocket ship.

Made the mistake of thinking Newport might actually have fish and stayed local yesterday, so I don't think any fish have seen it yet. Tonight that will change...
