I just stopped by and said hi to Len from Marmish. I picked up one of his competition series rods, it looks sweet.

Yep, I have used them to catch shiners for bait before.

Dont knock them until you try them. I thought they were a silly gimmik until I gave one a shot.

See any deals on Catch hole covers. I need about 10 of them for the Bin.

This is awsome, for those of us that can't make the show---even a chat room.

Two things:Please tell Don at Wilcraft I said HI.
Stop by Strikemaster and tell them "YOU CAN SHARPEN LAZER BLADES."

Keep up the good work Skipper(met you last year at the show)---Now I'm gonna be on the puter all night watching this thread.

Thanks Fran 8)

I found them for $15, if you are coming I can ask if they will have enough for you.

Not knocking them , really. I just think they may be a little light weight for our fish up here.
I can see using them to catch ciscoes up here, but we don't have Gills, Perch, Rock Bass etc.
I can't see them holding up to Lakers, Whitefish or Pike though.

jimmygunns · « **Reply #193 on:** Dec 05, 2009, 04:16 PM »

Sweet. Skipper, last year you took some good shots of Genz's personal setup. Anyone else there with their rigs, or any displays of custom setups? That was pretty cool to see last year.

mud_n_fun · « **Reply #194 on:** Dec 05, 2009, 04:17 PM »

Skipper,
Would you go back and talk with Len for me and maybe take your laptop over and Show him my 3rd Annual The Gathering thread for Michigan. I have yet to get in contact with him as I have had a busy fall. We acctually had guys show up to our event last year using Marmish rods and showed the system to others. I am curious if he would be interested in a donation to our Event again this year. I would like him to see the way we are giving out prizes this year. They are an awsome system and had I not spent 6mo layed off this year I know I would have a few in my arsinal.
Thanks
Brian

They are panfish rods, not intended for large preditors.

Exactly, we don't have panfish here, only baitfish and gamefish.

And not many types of baitfish either.

Can't say I have been to the site, due to the lack of panfish up here.

I'm just havin' a little fun with the pan fishing guy's.

I used to catch tons of big perch on Simcoe when I lived in Ontario. 8)

The insides were stuffed with people so Tom didn't take any pictures. We will take some when the people are gone in the morning.
