Hello from florida

[dblply]

Decided to finally make some posts, been lurking and reading for quite some time...  I'm Mike from St. Cloud Florida...  I am a passionate saltwater inshore and offshore fisherman, make my own jigs and bucktails...  And now because of all the information that is available, do all my own reel work... Awesome site here...  Actually met Alan several weeks ago while out in Sunnyvale on business travel... Super guy...

Can't say enough good things about the folks and information on this forum...  I do also have to say that this is certainly a friendly and sharing bunch...

Welcome aboard from South Louisiana, everybody else on here lives somewhere else around the world. If you love tinkering with reels you've come to the right place. To some people its a hobby, others are just plain eat up with it, enjoy......

i should have more time this year.  my wife was unemployed for the last two years, but just got a job before christmas.  now that she is working she can get together with her sister and her mom to hire someone to take care of her father.  up until now, it's been me and my wife watching her dad at night.  this has been going on for the last two years.  so, yeah, fishing is sounding pretty good right about now!
