BT,

I have a full roller Harnell stand up and a International 80  that  I can loan you if you need a setup for the cows.
You would definitely have the heaviest rig on the boat.........
There is nothing like lying flat on your back on the deck, alone except for the helmsman aft at the wheel, silence except for the lapping of the sea against the side of the ship. At that time you can be equal to Ulysses and brother to him.

Alan now you can give your old rod and reels to your daughter. Then she would have to find a boy friend that likes to fish. Then you can start the twelve step program all over again. Then comes the grand children and the never ending process continues. I see your retiring I really don't see how your going to do it with your addiction.

OK, so I go to Fisherman's Warehouse this morning to get my new YoYo rod for my brand new US Senator 113N and wind up with a Phenix Black Diamond 20-60 in my hands. I held it , caressed it and took out into the light  ;D ;D ;D I then hear a voice "Tim,Tim,Tim" "that's not what you came for" ...I looked at Patrick and then he said "That wont fit your reel"...Thank god for friends  :o Yes Alan we need meetings  ;D I did wind up with a 7' Calstar WC-670-C 20-50 ... I must have that Black Diamond  ;D ;D ;D ( next year)


Don't they look great together!

I know this is old, but I have a problem. I have somehow come across a Newell 113H stand with nothing atached to it. It is bothering me, I know I can sell it, but it would break my heart to sell anything that says Newell on it. Is it crazy to buy a new reel and bars to put the stand together?

Alan, you have ruined me!
