So... What are you guys looking forward to trying this year?

Just what the title says....anything and everything related to Rods, Reels, Terminal Tackle, Plastics, what others are using, what works, what doesn't work, and anything else you want to talk about regarding equipment.

Ben is 2yrs old now so I can't use that for him anymore. But Jensen is only 3 months so I figure I still have 2 or 3 months of the "but I gave you a baby" and "Ive made your dreams come true with two beautiful boys" etc etc etc..... :D :lol:

It was purchased before the dollar started to drop in value. Which makes it even better.

You guys are terrible!

New rule, even if I already know what it is, Pictures of EMS boxes are not allowed in tie thread! If there are pics to be added, they must be tacklehoe/drool worthy!

My list for this year hasn't even started yet. I went to Paddletales last night and spent 20 minutes looking around. As I could not decide what I wanted and couldn't afford all of it, I walked out empty handed.

I have a few rods and reels in mind. I just have to come up with the funds first.

Part of the box's content was RCS knobs, clear and red.
I'm especially happy with the red knobs, I had been looking for a pair for quite a while now.

The clear ones really give a reel that unique look and blends in beautifully with the rod's handle.

Those red ones would look nice with an inscription "Team 28" instead of the Daiwa logo.

Or even better, maybe with those pretty red princess knobs you'll be able to put some fish in the boat. :lol:

Looks good Mav.
That might be the one to "bling" out if you go that route.
