i guess u missed it..
but i just picked up a shimano crucial 6.2 med light rod
it has a lifetime warranty against everything basically. i break it, i get new rod.
yea i've been looking in the classifieds, there is currently a abu garcia cardinal 103. is this a good reel to match up with that shimano rod?
i'm hoping they have deals on reels if i go to BPS on saturday. something like a nice diawa, shimano, or quantum reel
there is a diawa reel that is supposed to be actually a little better than the stradic 1000.
