Title: Paul Bunyan 100
Post by: Lunker Larry on April 01, 2026, 09:35:46 PM
At CanCast and Muskie Odyssey Canada's biggest fishing show this past weekend they also had a huge garage sale type venue. I picked up this little bait caster for $10 just because I liked it. Though it was pretty unique.

Ok, cool; "modified" then "save". Been wondering about that, OMJ. Thanks. I've found that many people, for unknown reasons, aren't willing to share digital navigation stuff when asked. Hopefully it's cause they don't know either and don't wanna seem ignorant like me.

Another thing that's cool is the line pawl is reversible.
