i decided on that rod that (i badly mixed the coating) never dried i would strip not only the glue but also remove the eyes  and shave the bait caster finger hook off of it and make it into a spincast  setup.

nothing Fancie just yet, heheh

thanks Pat, yes i know what ya mean about giving fish away.

my next door neighbor lady cant eat red meat so when ever we get something "legal and worth keeping" we give it to her.

heck a 20 inch red will make 2 or 3 meals for her.
