Title: Pro Challenger one-piece Jigmaster 501
Post by: Petah on July 23, 2018, 02:49:37 AM
Anybody else put together one of Alan C's new Jiggy kits??

Here's mine, all the usual internals S.S. everything, double dog bridge, JMX gears, sleeve.
Just need to find some allen button-head screws for the sideplate.

Love the silver, nice handle too.  I could use a set of screws  if you run across where to get some.
I posted mine on the PC thread, be fishing it Tuesday, hoping the yellowtail are still around

Swami805,
               As soon as I find em I'll post it!!  You going to The Channel Islands??? The yellows out there
are MEAN!!! This reel should be more than enough!!! It feels sooo solid, just screams to be fished HARD!!!!
Good luck on the yellows, maybe a WSB or two as well!!!!!

Going tomorrow night to fish Tuesday, it's a charter I go on twice a month. Best part is we never fish rockfish. They got some yellowtail and seabass today. Weather is looking ok,hope we get some!

Yes, funny but it was the only extra one I had! Trying to decide on a Tib spool or one of Alan C's.
Wanna keep it all silver!!
