Title: Thank you IRS...Sort of
Post by: Big Tim on May 06, 2016, 02:13:26 AM
After a 2 year battle with the IRS I'm winning...Finally. They cost me last years trip on the SOA charter and countless headaches & a lot of $$$ to a Tax guy!!! But my fortunes are starting to turn and the IRS is starting to pay  ;D Not without a fight , but pay they will. First installment payed the tax guy a couple of bills and this today...YES !!!

Nice!  I can't wait to use mine this summer, may I suggest one of Alan's handles?  The 5/0 feels fantastic on the Narrow reel.

Nice Tim!
A little lighter than the ProGear? Looking forward to seeing you use it.

I like the silver frame of the US senators

I have an extra Penn Baja Special frame that I want to powdercoat in silver or maybe just sell it and get a US senator frame

Nice Tim, but where's the button you press to go into low? For an extra US Grant you could've had the 25nld2's big brother.

Mark you are correct. I have heard from a little birdie (My Tax guy) that a 40NLD2 is in my near future  ;D

Nice pick up Tim!

The Baja Special is one sweet reel, cannot wait to see some fish hanging from it.
