89Sporty - welcome to S-B, I assume the name is for the wheels, right? Tough to fish with it though (wouldn't be too bad at the Ditch )

yep its an 89 boat anchor right now, having starter problem and they go for 279.00, rather buy the new fishing setup today and worry about the bike next week. I plan on fishin the ditch today with the new setup. Not sure what pole to buy though.

I would ask a few people which pole to get for what kind of fishing you want to do. There are a lot of different people here at S-B that use different methods fishing the Ditch.

You probably need to start a new thread on the best ditch rod to get. Also, check that link I just pm'd you for rods too....

Of' course, a new reel and a new mig range or better rod will probably run more than that starter

Thanks for the tip. I just checked it out and it was 114.95. I'll definatly stop there first , I'm coming down 495 and it won't be hard to find in the center of Wareham. I allways thought the other place was a little high pricewise anyway.

89 sporty, I have a 6500 shimano baitrunner I don't need anymore, it's in good shape, I can sell it to ya cheap. And I am in Middleboro just off 495 on your way. Could save ya some dough so you can buy a little better rod.

What kind of fishing will you be doing with the rod? plugging,bait,jigging,eeling ?or all of them?

Slipnot,
I'm going to be heading down that way and should be in the Middlboro area some time around 2:30-45 today.
PM some directions or a place conveinent of the hiway so I can check it out. Would like to save some money so I can get the boat anchor running some day. Probably get a nicer rod. I use chunk mack in the canal but I want to get a pole that I can double for surf casting plugs and drifting bait.

slipnot, I sent a reply to the pm but I don't know if the board notified you. I'll have to do some bone up on how this tackboard works.
