WHAT DID YOU BUY TODAY? FISHING PURCHASES

[Tyger]

Picked up a Pflueger President spinning reel and Trion rod at garage sale for $15 each this past weekend, both were in excellent condition.

Nice pickup Tyger! Those Presidents are well worth the money and at that price, a steal!

Just picked up my replacement Abu Garcia Villain bait casting rod from Sail. Sent in a spinning and got a casting. Took a month.

 

[Paul DeLuca]

Hey cBircham, how do you find the Villain? I was at a guys place yesterday that had 2 of them that snapped on him. He says Abu keeps replacing them which is great but he's getting fed up with them breaking. Both were in the same spot about 3/4 the way up the rod. They were both casting rods.

Well that's not what I want to hear. I haven't even put it into the water yet. I loved my spinning rod but had an eyelet snap off. I will let you know though.

 

[Paul DeLuca]

Lol sorry. Hopefully he just got a few that had some defects and it's not the norm. They seem like awesome rods (and better be for the price!).
