BTW, have you talked to Landon recently?
Speakers, huh? So that's what all that BOOM, BOOM, BOOM bass was out in the parking lot when you met up with me in Franklin.

That TM rod is really nice. I haven't tried any of the others being discussed here.

What I am more impressed with is the TM 2 lb test mono that Alpha gave me. My dad and I floated the Red River, and I hooked into a 10-15 lb drum on a trout magnet. Through about 10 minutes of hard fighting including many drag screaming runs and changes of direction under the kayak, the line held. I was convinced that at any minute it would snap.

Sambolie, I'm still around. I haven't fished since July 4th because I'm getting ready for the birth of number three on September 1.
