I sent a PM to you.

This topic has been moved to D.A.M Quick, Fred will certainly have input.

Not many by hoarding standards. Not "complete" by collecting standards. More than I need by fishing standards, which is my primary motivation.

Fred (foakes) will be the one to talk to about all things DAM, and other stuff too.

Hi
Wondering if anyone can help me out with a list of the Calcutta 400 models that have a spool bushing rather than a bearing.

Thanks!
Dawn

thanks for this post, & all the info, it looks great, I do up cork handles on rods, if you give the cork, just one coat of thread inhancer, it should look great,  last for many years, any more than one coat, makes it to slippery, cheers Don.

I am a fishing gear makeup brand gomexus. I am very happy to see this beauty makeup photo you shared. Luckily, I did not miss it! Browsing the web is my go-to way of getting inspired.I think it's really cool and I hope to use it on our designs.

Hi Steve,

With the drop shot rig, would you hook the bait sideways through the nose or vertically starting from the lower jaw to the nose?

Thanks

I got 4 today,,,,,,

The great thing about this rig is you can drop it fast and get it to the zone before the fish are gone and it can't tangle.

It does limit the baits ability to swim a lot but it does still move around a lot.

Exactly!
