LuV it! When I wraped it I started with a HH40(high frame) to a HH30 and the rest where single footed, all wraped with A thread (all metellic black) I used the least amount of thread as possible. I think for a rod of that rating, its a very lite set-up. Lookin forward to be slingin eels and heavier (black)plugs

I beleive thats a 1088 rainshadow, I like it alot....thanks again John. The jacket is a grudens"Brigg 34 Anorak". First season with this jacket" you can loose weight in it also. Like the neoprene cuffs....makes a difference.

GOOSE, NICE FISH, You look like the GQ magazine Fisherman...

Over the Last Several Years HAB'S NEEDLEFISH Have Caught More "Confirmed" 30, 40, 50, and even 60 pound Striped Bass than any other Wooden Needlefish on the Market today. 2 Over 50lbs. and 1 Over 60lbs. in 2005 alone........... "HOOK UP WITH HAB'S" Your Best Bet For BIG BASS.....
