    Default Even more happiness


    Just got home from work and the Daiwa rod I had ordered was supposed to be delivered on the 15th was sitting in my chair. That’s 9 days ahead of schedule and I couldn’t be happier. It’s a Daiwa trout x xul and weighs nothing compared to most of my other rods. I tied on one of my 1/43 jigs and cast it 50’+ in the backyard. I have to endure the work week before I’ll be able to try it and that’s gonna be tough. Might have to come down sick one day(cough-cough!). Pics and stories when I get out with it. Thanks for following along with my first NEW JDM set up. Now where’s that rabbit hole……..

    If I'm not mistaken your already in it.

    How deep remains to be seen. Maybe you can step/climb out, or maybe the hole is already to deep to claw your way out.

    Congrats on the new rod. Interested in hearing your thoughts when you get a chance to use her.

    Nothing better than having a dance partner that is pretty to look at and is light on her feet, eh?

    WTG, 50’ is great. How strong a wind was that with? lol
    Pass the "Sportsman Baton" on before you're gone, promote values for others to hunt and fish upon.
