Been in central Florida for 11 months and found out about SALT WOW!!! Salt takes its toll on stainless steel, regular steel bearings don’t have a chance. Disassembled my 1974 Little Dude trail ( bought it new with my Sears and Roebuck 14’ game fisherman) to see how they are. It was not good, flushed and re-greased bearings. Now is the time to care of them, Or do it when your tire flys by you driving on the highway. Take care of our waterways and our stuff we love and our wives in that order... ps: love ya steph😘

Couldn’t ID it, it was a Silver Shadow then gone that fast!!! First thought it was a shark and with stainless steel leader he could of chewed down all he wanted, the 15# leader gave out when his bucket head twisted out of control. I know where he roams. I’ll be Back!!!

Fishing Sebastian Inlet 3 weeks ago and snapped it in half. Fished with it maybe a dozen times. Going to contact them to see if they are going to send me a new one. Last ugly stick I had bought it in mid 80s. Just broke a while back. Bought the catfish and snapped??? Not sure What to think.

Thought I was ready when been broken off a few times, went to #2 circle 8” S. Steel leader, 15 #Stren mono leader, barrel swivel, 30# Braid main line. It picked up my shrimp and went East, that’s when he felt he was hooked, he cut the water with the line and in 8 seconds and was on the west side of the channel and not happy. I was loving it, till I got him with in 6’ of the boat, came up from the bottom till I saw a 40+ “ Silver Shadow and he thought it was time to Leave!!!! With one head shake that S. O. B. Was Gone. That’s all I have to say about that !!!! PS 40# leader next time and then let’s see laughs last.

It came with the reel, and it came with a smaller plastic/rubber non slip. Like the bigger handle , fits perfect. Are you from the Ozarks? Moved to Florida 6 months ago and they will take me feet first. Love it here!!!🦀🦞🦐🦑🎍🌞🍣🍣🍣🍱🍤🍋🍊🍑🍉🌺🌸🌷💐all fresh.

Lived in Tecumseh Mo. for 30 + years. Fished Bull Shoals !!!! Nice Water. Spoon Bill belly smoked jerky...you never had anything till you ate that WOW. You have the best fishing Anywhere. P.S. For all of you that are going to tell me there isn’t spool bill in Bull Shoals. Pssssss offffffff. 😳

Very surprised no one has mentioned fishing low pressure systems??? Surfing fishing anyone?🐠

Don’t listen to these ( hang it on the wall guys) I’ve caught 7 # walleyes, 16” crappies,1.75# blue gill and so on, trolling points on Bull Shoals Lake. USE THEM. Or send them to me. 🐡
