Nice rigs Bomarico and FishingandFords...

But to be helpful to me, I would appreciate the type and lb-test of the lines on each rig, AND the application or technique.

Thanks,

Fred

Excuse the dust on the reels. They are all super good condition and many NIB, but the dust makes them look like they have dings. I also have listed what techniques each combo is used for if you view the album rather than the slideshow.
Unbelievable collection. =D>

Most of my reels don't currently have line on them so I won't be able to make up a list until things warm up, as far as techniques I really only throw a few things , wacky senko, jigs , t-rigs, jigs , occasional cranks, jigs , tubes ,frogs and more jigs :D

Starting over with my set ups. Sold off most of my rods and reels in the last month. I'm going to be building my own rods this winter. I've built/repaired golf clubs (for fun) for years and figured I can build rods too…Ordered an Alps upgraded power wrapper and most every other supply I need. Experimenting with epoxies at the moment. So far it's going great, easier than I thought…I was most worried about applying finish to the threads without bubbles…little heat and they disappear…My ocd infected mind is at ease knowing I can be as picky as I want and I'll never build a crooked rod or have misaligned guides or sloppy epoxy. Just waiting for the rest of the components to arrive and experimenting with what thread colors to what reel/rod etc. Here's what I have right now;

Spinning (both have Fuji Ti-Sic Kr guides)
Phenix K2 682
Phenix K2 683 - Shimano Complex CI4+ HGS (the reel is not black, more of a really dark metallic bronze)

Casting (all three have Fuji Ti-Sic K guides)
Phenix M1 69ml
Phenix K2 684 - 13' Metanium XG
NFC HM Mag Bass 665 - Chronarch CI4+

Trolling - walleye (all 3 have Fuji SS Alconites)
Phenix Composite 7' X9 - Shimano Tekota 300 line counter
Phenix Composite 7' X10 - Shimano Tekota 300 line counter
St Croix Leg. Tourn 7' Bounce and Troll - Shimano Tekota 300 line counter

Just got a Fed Ex delivery while I was typing this…I need to get started!

Not to get too far off topic but I might consider a trade for a daiwa variant in the same condition.
