Title: The Road Less Traveled
Post by: Maxed Out on February 01, 2024, 09:02:39 PM
 Some refer to it as "the rabbit hole", but I like to think of it as "the road less traveled". A mixture of vintage and ultra modern 

 Cheers :d

I really do love the blank stares i get when I tell people that the shiny thing I'm fishing with is 50 years old. Well, parts of it anyway.

That frame looks great with those plates and that spool, jack lever and handle!
