The Iceman Posted May 6, 2007 Share Posted May 6, 2007 (edited) Im really happy today as I picked up two new custom tournament rods from fishfinder Tony A seven foot rod for poppering and flats work with SPs and a seven foot with four inches cut off the butt to bring it back to six foot eight for fishing structure like pontoons under wharfs and snags So far with test casting in the front yard with a 1.4gm squidgy jighead with the hook cut off it felt awesome with good distances achieved with little effort(dont ask how far as I didnt measure it but it was significantly better than the rods I was using) Cant wait to get them out on the water Hopefully next monday unless I have to get my car fixed as its playing up Edited May 11, 2007 by The Iceman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hooky. Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 Yep finished it using my shoes Nice shoes!! BTW, when do WE go out and test these rods? I need a feed of squid rings...................actually, I don't need a feed of squid rings, I just need to get out of the house and get on the water. Sittin' on the "four acres" doesn't do anything for me at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
