He only did it so he wouldn't suffer the indignations that go with that reel alone.

And of course, now you need to update that dinosoaur of a rod you fish with tp something say... at least 90's vintage.

Why even try.........

Flap: I think Numby did this because he was sick and tired of listening to me grinding away on the 706z in the night. It disturbs his tranquility. Or, maybe he didn't like all the grease oozing out of my 706z's at every seam and messing up his vehicles. Or, maybe, it is because YOU have given Numby such verbal abuse and ridicule ever since he got his "Z", that maybe he wants to deflect some of it away from him! Or, maybe, he really likes his spinning tackle more than he is willing to admit in public.

Now, Flap, as to my rods, what's so wrong mounting my "Z" on bamboo?

Congratulations on your Z.George is definitely one of a kind .Also if your going to put that Z on a bamboo rod make sure you use the correct silicon carbide guides for it as you do not want the bobber to catch on the tip.

No big deal here, Alan. My kid ends up with a $1000, you end up with a decent reel, and I end up ecstatic you didn't have to guide his religious education. Man, WHAT was I ever thinking?

I have 5 godchildren. All I have received for not missing every b.day and Christmas w/presents, cards/candy for Halloween and Easter (incl. Easter baskets for the close ones) is a $25 gift card to Omaha steaks.

Numbskull - you thinking of having any more kids?
