Finally got all the parts together for a hot-rodded mid-sized ("99") jigmaster build.  Here's the before and after.

Bad day of fishing still beats a good day at work!

Looks pretty nice, I've got one that is waiting on an upgraded drag stack. Did great on the SOA trip.

Nice work Gman - thanks for sharing.
That's an extraordinarily capable little reel - have a couple meself, but not with the double-dog plate.
Cheers, Justin

That reel looks awesome Gareth... nice job!
Forget about all the reasons why something may not work. You only need to find one good reason why it will.

Thanks very much for the kind sentiments and encouragement, guys!  Several weeks ago I was pretty intimidated by just opening up a reel.  While my mere assembly of various parts pales in comparison to the very impressive custom upgrades some of you are doing, I've learned a lot on this site.  Thanks very much to you all.

Regards,

Gareth

Does the midsize place it in between a 500 and 501?

Hi, my name is Lee and I have a fishing gear problem.

I have all of the answers, yup, no, maybe.
