Jerry all I can say is... pictures don't do it justices!

Terry, he left it up to me wether or not to include the foregrip. Normally, I'm not a fan of foregrips on inshore rods, but once I seen these grips there was no way I could breakup a set like this...

These are the pics Pat Helton and I took at the fundraiser auction for " Take a Soldier Fishing" program. Besides empty pockets I came away with a better understanding of what these folks do and the touching story around the recipient of our 1st vet rod.
