miller Posted December 9, 2011 Report Posted December 9, 2011 after wanting to get one for quite some time and recently seeing once again how effective it can be i finally bit the bullet and picked up my first centerpin. i picked up the okuma aventa and a 13' st. croix avid. took thursday off in hopes to break it in and it was quite a successful day. ended up going 6 for 9. heres a few pics

TerryC Posted December 9, 2011 Report Posted December 9, 2011 WTG, Haven't seen ya around your local haunts this fall, looks like you have upgraded locations a little bit. Is that the combo that I saw at Grimsby Tackle? Cheers, Clarence

spinnerdoc Posted December 10, 2011 Report Posted December 10, 2011 (edited) Sweet outing outing Miller, i like the last fish...pretty stout and the brown has amazing markings on the gill plate. Congrats Edited December 10, 2011 by spinnerdoc
EC1 Posted December 10, 2011 Report Posted December 10, 2011 Took me about 10 trips before I got my very first a couple years back. Haven't gotten one since. That's great you went 6 for 9. Go get them again soon!
Ralph Field Posted December 10, 2011 Report Posted December 10, 2011 Congratulations on your outing. I know the rings on your rod fit tight but I would strongly recommend that you tape them in place so you can't knock one loose and have your reel fall off.
