wow what a collection. well um I got a long ways to go before I can swap around with that kind of ammo. gee-whiz.
interesting approach to things, interesting indeed i dont have enough reelsto do that
no alpha in the mix. thats not right.
all my reels before these i usually tear down 1 or 2 times a year and clean/oil/grease
do you think i should do ths more often, especially since i will be ... catching more fish on my new heluims?

HE 76 HC Scorpion 1000 MG --Jigs
HE 70 MC Scorpion 1000 MG -- Topwater/Cranks
HE 70 HC Scorpion 1000 MG -- Senkos
HE 63 APC Scorpion 1000 -- Spinners/Buzz in close
HE 60 MC Scorpion 1000 -- Light wormin' in close
HE 76 MS Johnny Morris 1500 -- Dropshot
I probably figure on getting 3 or 4 more HEs, I just need to decide which ones. Maybe a longer worming rod, & another 70 MC, & 70 HC.
