You will need a closet full of Huk gear if you expect to catch fish.

Come on now, give the guy a break. Yeah things have changed but fish still bite the old stuff. Dust off the rod and real get some bargain bin Stren line and throw a plum power bait on a Texas rig and get your line jerked. All will be right with the world and it didn't cost you a $1,000.00 to do it. That will come later after you catch that first fish.

Buddy I was looking at houses a few weeks ago in your neck of the woods and was wondering about ya! Glad to hear you will be back around fishing, lots to catch up on. Don't worry I haven't kept up with a lot of the new stuff either and am still catching fish out of my 98 Cat. I will say one really good push forward in the industry you need to look at is the Ultrex with the spotlock, yeah I know shallow water guy, but hell man if I want to sit down and retie or eat a sandwich that spot lock will be nice, LOL Good to hear from ya!

Rico is not designed for fishing in 20' of water. Not that you couldn't do it on the right day but...  Can't wait to see you out there Chris

I am a few welds away from the project being done, I still have all my "vintage" E series shimanos
Best reels made for the money in my fishing lifetime. I have 20 of the Curado 200E7's with 4 of them still brand new in the box.

Chandlers Landing Charges $20 to launch ? is that true ?
I think of it as $5 to launch and $15 to not get robbed and/or murdered.

Out of the game for 4 years huh? Have you ever heard of an Ultrex? Actually yes, when I decided to build another aluminum rig I snagged a used one time Fortrex 112 for the paltry sum of $500 it looked like new. I asked why are you selling this and the answer was look at an Ultrex and you'll see. Still haven't looked at one but I will get around to it. 2nd lake test on my little rig this morning, have some bugs to address. I got wet in the small white caps on hubbard so thats an issue I will have to deal with. I about have it balanced for fishing tho. After running around this morning I am really jonesing to wet a line. ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2019/06/full-7362-15758-rico_done.jpg) I will make a project video to show the build later.
