Bought my new float rod

[TimberTodd]

After going back and forth comparing and handling several float rods I made my purchase. I picked up a 10'6" Okuma SST from Fishermans Marine. It was on sale for $49.99. It felt right in my hand and in my gut. The money saved can go towards a handful of new jigs. Again thanks for everyones input on my previous post. Now to take the skunk off of it.

Ha! I just went in there today and saw that same price...mulled over and over in my mind, "Hmmmm, great price, what do I need to add to my collection even though I don't really have a gap at the moment...got the float, drift, fly, spinner and spoon casting arsenal fairly covered?" And came up with no good reason to buy one, despite that alluring price. What is wrong with me? LOL

Good fishing, I like the feel of my SST.

X 2. Nicely done Jedi! Your new light sabre is a great choice--and great value--for your spent fishing credits!

I just caught the 7 day forcast. Looks like some rain to raise the rivers a little. I might have to take a day or 2 off the middle to end of next week and try the new rod out.

I just bought the same one yesterday from Fisherman's! Couldn't pass it up for only $50. I have another sst for a level wind at 8'6" for drifting. I love that one so it gave me to confidence to get another. Good luck out there!
