Avet SX 5.1- one hell of a reel. I had to mag it and slow it down with some thicker oil, but man oh man does it cast.. the drag can stop a moped, and its also built like a tank. Hands down, its the Van Staal of the convench world.

snake slinger,
don't have experience with the west forks, but the wicked toughs are just what they are named, and comfortable as well

Saltiga Z4500- 10 out of 10 stars.Best reel I've ever owned.
Aquaskins Evo2 top- 7 out of 10 stars. Worked good, but durability could be better on the seams.
Red Bull enrergy drinks- 9 out of 10 stars. Picks me up, but makes me pee like race horse.

I forgot about the energy drinks....without them the number of hours fishing would be much less.
I prefer AMP as I like MD.

Started using a Camelbak this year - 70 oz of water that you don't even know is there. If you walk, you'll love these.
New creek chub giant jointed pikies; Catch fish but crack from the water.
Replaced all cotton cold weather clothing with synthetics. Wider comfort range, better wicking, lighter, and the fabric doesn't hold moisture.
Avet SX - nice reel, but the drag came broken and I still need to send it back.
Sufix braid - I prefer this to PP.
