    The gap is where my Shimano TSM 3 should be but I can't find it????
    Only one rod photo as I hate taking photos of rods. Shimano T-Curve revolution travel rod. It's the prettiest one. Each reel has one or more rods it is used on and all are loaded with braid. I hate using mono now. Feels like fishing with a rubber band.

    For accuracys sake it was an M1 Garand not a remmy.

    And the ones coming back were the original sharks young if you read Peter Benchleys books.

    Doing a fair bit of searching new water with the spin gear and my daughter.
    2500's Exage and Alivio. Still want a Stella.
    3500 Baitrunner I have had for ever and the Calcutta 250 I bought in Ft Lauderdale which caught heaps of fish in and around the Florida Keys.

    I would highly recommend the Stradic. It has performed beautifully. It has the sort of drag that you have to look at the reel to see if line is being pulled off it's that smooth. For the price I don't see how the Stella could be THAT much better.
    Love the Calcuttas too.

    Show us your Fishing gear

    Those of you who are old enough may remember the Snapper and Kingfish secrets by old mate Geoff Thomas. As an impressionable young man I had to buy the Shimano Speed Master TSM IV as used by the legend himself. Mail ordered straight from The Fishing News many years before online orders. It was stripped down, drag washers all hand lapped and the Shimano fibre washers chucked out for Smoothies. This real is the Fighting Star version with near lever drag speed to wind it up. On the Calstar custom made by Leon at Rodworks (now no longer) it's a combo I love. Kings and big snaps no worries. Best snapper I ever caught went 22lbs and I horsed it all the way to the boat as I thought it was just another rat kingi.

    Yep. They're solid reels. Mine has outlasted a couple Daiwa SL reels which are tough to beat. My old man has a TSM3FS that I'm thinking of perking one day. Shame the Hawkes Bay fishing is pretty shit. Plus I dont have a boat anymore.

    A good mate had a Daiwa SL which I used a couple of times. I must say it did cast better than my TSM but his is long gone too.
