Here's a few pics of a custom set I had made up for catfishing.They were done by Joe Onorato at J+J sports out of Maryland.The 12'er is a lamiglass surf and bar rod rated to cast 6-16,The 10'er is a MHX euro cat rod rated at #30-#80,and the 8'er is a Seeker Jig and Heavy live bait in XXH rated for #40-#100 line.All the reels are Avet JX's.All the handles I had cord wrapped in matching colors.They've held up well for me.
Nice looking Rigs Pat! ;D
Looks like you could a hurtin on some big cats with those...nice rigs!!!

awesome combos you got there amigo, it would be great to see some of your catchs with them, they will catch anything that cross on their path I bet.
they also look perfect for surf fishing

Thanks guys!!! :)
Don't know that I've ever seen catfish rigs that nice. Good job!
Pat those are some nice rigs! I have a couple Avets for boat but haven't cast them for distance; I hear they do well.
I know that Lami blank; it's a beast.

bigcatpat is a class act. ;)
I need to put him on the Christmas list.
Yes those are some very nice cat rigs. The Avet Jx should be a a really good reel for this. We are allowed to fish 3 reels here in Kansas I came real close to buying 3 Avet JX's. In the end I decided to go a different route. Knowing what I know now I'd been just as happy with Avets... Jeff
Nice, really classy catfish tools.
