You can avoid having ulcers by adapting to the situation: If you fall in the mud puddle, check your pockets for fish. ~Unknown Open your eyes & look within, are you satisfied with the life you�re living. No matter how good or bad you have it, wake up each day thankful for your life. Someone somewhere else is desperately fighting for theirs.

It has worked flawlessly for me for the past year. I also just switched to Daiwa Samurai 70 lb Braid, it's a lot quiter through the guides than the Power Pro 65 lb I've used for the past few years. 10.33 Caddo 9.60 Caddo
