Carbon composite grip revisited.....
Posted: Mon Jun 30, 2008 11:10 am
Remember this rod with the carbon composite grip?
Shortly after it was finished, I handed it over to my R&D team (JD) to see how the grip & rod would perform. Well, it looks like I'm not getting the rod back. He's been tormenting the snooks of Cow Creek Beach with that rod.
Over this past weekend, I was "forced" to come down to his neck of the woods to take some photos of the rod in action. So here are some pictures:
JD showing how to catch snook using a freaking DOA shrimp:
Psst...you going to eat that? Said the heron.
And of course my little snook caught using a freaking DOA shrimp.
I am not sure what the total count was for the morning, probably a dozen each. If you know me,
I am not a fan of the DOA shrimp. I actually brought along a 5 or 6 year glow shrimp that someone gave me.
We'll after this trip, I learned to respect the shrimp as a great lure. I'll definitely add a pack to my tackle box.
So why am I not getting the rod back JD?
