And I haven't even hit the water.
I bought the 3 Celcius combos the other day figuring my son would take one. He doesn't care what he uses. And, the pflueger trion in a 20 size is no longer made with the extra spool so I hit a couple of stores and picked up 3.At Cabela's I got a 13fishing Whitenoise MEdium 26" rod. I really liked the balance of the flex in the rod. I have no idea what I am looking for, but I liked the real seat, the flex pattern in the rod, etc. The color was a plus. So, now I have one nice setup and a couple of the $13 setups. Plus I could always use one of my really soft open water poles if we are fishing outside. I picked up a series of jigs and lures from both sportsmans and Cabelas and ordered an Eskimo 8" hand auger from Sportsmans with free ship to store. For line I bought a selection so I could try out different lines. No super lines. Some Suffix ice, Bionic Ice and Trilene Ice. I already have trilene XL which I use on several poles during open water. I figured I would try some different types to see how they react.
So, here I am with all this equipment and I won't be able to go for a bit. Need to finish the new dog house today and leave to Alaska for a few days tomorrow.
It's all your fault and hopefully the wife doesn't walk into the man cave, fishing room. It was hard enough to explain the 8 rods lined up on the wall. Now there are 4 more. At least they are cheaper than some of my other rods.
