You had me going there.i was wondering why a baitcaster sounded so much like a spinning reel
My biggest worry is that my wife(when I'm dead)will sell my fishing gear for what I said I paid for it

I've given up on baitcasters for now - too many rat's nests!  I grew up flipping a bail and am content to keep on doing it.

Thanks for the nice comments, guys.   :smt001

Hell Yeah! When I watched the Vid I let out a cheer when you got that baby to net! I love the rush I get when I hook a Steelhead. Nothing else comes close.

Great Video Eric... You were fortunate having a long stretch of clear river (not including the willows) to fight that fish !!
