Got my X-mas gift from work

[deerslayer11]

They give out a booklet and you can pick what ya want out of it. I got an Abu Garcia 5600 AB this year, now I guess I have to go online and order a rod for it.

I think they just give us the smallest ham that the grocery store has at the time.

Christmas gift from work? You're kidding right? At my work those arrogant engineer bosses of mine think their Christmas gift to me is letting me help them make electricity.
Christmas gift from work that's funny.

It's a cool deal for you though. Is that a freshwater reel. I have three Abu's two baitcasters and one openface for light lures like a plastic centipede with no weight on it.

Ya its their new anti backlash bait caster. I already have a few ABUs and love em.

[flhuntress]

well that's cool....hope you enjoy it.

[hunt4fun1]

I wonder what I'll get this year from work.....O wait.....nevermind, I'm UNEMPLOYED! ;D

The one In the middle pic is like what I like to use. The ones they used to call flippin rods. You can chunk the piss out them with a 1 oz weight.

Slayer -- This is the reel that I use. It works on just about anything I fish for. www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/templates/product/horizontal-item.jhtml?id=0002932114705a&navAction=push&navCount=2&indexId=cat20331&podId=0002932&catalogCode=UD&parentId=cat20331&parentType=index&rid=&_DARGS=%2Fcabelas%2Fen%2Fcommon%2Fcatalog%2Fitem-link.jhtml.1_A&_DAV=MainCatcat20166&hasJS=true

I use a lot of spinning reels, mostly Shimano.

[mudfish2]

anti-backlash baitcaster?? never heard of such...I'm always unwrapping line from around my ears everytime I try and use one of those suckers...the only time I will use one is at santee when I can drop it straight down beside the boat ;D

[deerslayer11]

I got another one this year. I finally used them and DO NOT like the Antibacklash thing. Im going to bypass it on both of them.
