I got a killer deal from my Batson buds!  Big props to those guys as they are always clutch.



8'10" of iron/live bait goodness.



Mr. Skrilla will be doing the wraps and I will be all over this thing the minute I am cleared for takeoff.   8)

More pics to follow when the build commences.

Excellent!  you could pull double duty sliding baits off piers this spring too!  8) nice length, I bet it will cast 3-4oz to the moon with a 40 size reel. Saltist?  ;)

Penn Fathom 30.  I was going to go with a 40 size reel, but i got a great deal on a brand new 30.  It holds plenty of 80# braid and I plan on topshotting it with whatever I plan on using it for on that trip.  Cant wait to see it when it's all done.  8)

skrilla:
The ideas are marinating.  ;D
