what brand rods and reels do you use


Most of my rods are old. Several remain from when I used to build my own.
Most of my 'factory' rods are allstars. Reels? mostly Daiwa casting reels
for light duty stuff, and old, Ambassadeur 4600s for flipping, slop fishing
and spinnerbaiting. But my absolute favoirite casting reel (the one I use
the most for worming) is a current model Ambassadeur. I think they call it
the Toruno or something like that. Spinning Reels, I have an a couple
different ABUs that I like. My favorite is a fairly inexpensive model --
the latest resurrection of the Cardinal nameplate. I never use spinning
tackle for anything over 6 lb test, and I don't use the drag, so my demands
on a spinning reel are different than most.
