Sweet! My favorite pixy has always been the silver mica. I've owned at least 20 different variants over the years, and my silver Pixzilla is the only one I still own. Heres a few pics of mine that I found on my phone.
Nice man =D> ... funny how the silver mica Pixy is the only one I didn't buy or keep (I may have had one at some point, can't say for sure :lol: )
Like you said above, pardon the crappy cell phone pics!
Try not to let your mind wander. It is much too small to be outside unsupervised.

Some call these OG and irrelevant when compared to today standards. I look at those people and just don't get it. All you need to do is install carbontex washers and replace the spool to something lighter ifyou'll be casting the true ultra light stuff. I use mine with a px68 finesse special spool and it works extremely well, not to mention how far this spool casts if you need distance with 3/16-3/8oz weights. I also have like $350+ of upgrades on mine but we don't really talk about that.

Nice catch! What lure and line size was he using ?

What rod did he pair it with?

Just dusted off my pixies for some pond action
For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible

He was fishing it on an NRX 802... I pre-spooled it for him with some 30lb Finatic braid with a top shot of DARM fluorocarbon. He was fishing a tiny Jackall Rhtythm Wave swimbait with a Megabass Okashira jighead
