J-Doc Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 Is there a slot or length limit for this? I caught this trolling with a reef runner about 28 feet deep and Rocky Branch. All jokes aside I cleaned the rod up as the reel was frozen solid. I used some steel wool on the rod I and the eyes are smooth and polished. For the cork I have wrapped it with electrical tape and it seems to make a pretty decent rod actually. I'm very surprised. It's an Abu Garcia Conolon. Will make a nice catfish rod hahaha!

gramps50 Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 Looks like a hybrid to me, you already cleaned it so I guess now you will have to keep it. ;-)
nathanhooper Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 That is sweet! Hey, don't those expensive reels have a lifetime warranty or something? Never know, they might just replace it for you. lol
J-Doc Posted July 29, 2013 Author Posted July 29, 2013 I can see Quantum now... "What did you do to this? Drop it in the lake and find it later?" "How'd you know that??". Lol! Need marine repair?

nathanhooper Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 lol. Hey, I would just tell them the truth. I have a reel that I pulled out of the lake that does not work anymore... Details should only be given as they are asked for. lol. Hey, guys don't go around telling their wives(before they are married) "I'm going to be spending all my time and money on hunting and fishing..." Its all about a need to know basis
Members riverhyker Posted July 29, 2013 Members Posted July 29, 2013 Hold it wait...I caught it first...I just "Threw it back bigger."....(so that it would get to be bigger)....that was an ultralight when I caught it
Feathers and Fins Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 I thought you said it was a trash fish and were going to throw it away... You just have to restore ancient things don't ya, lol. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Beaver-Lake-Arkansas-Fishing-Report/745541178798856
