Welcome to the dark side my friend |
This "Cal" guy that wrote that review bears a striking resemblence to you sdesign.... 'cept he's uglier of course. 
Seriously, what you planning on reviewing next? Some of the new kayak angler Kistler's?

 "yet"?!?  There's hope!
Hmmmm, if you are ever in Texas and want to hit the coast, I can lend you one. Maybe a big redfish will take you for a "Nantucket sleigh ride".

Andy,
I wonder if you do what I do, which is check the UPS tracking page in the morning to see when the "package" is to arrive and get home before the wife does so she doesn't see it (assuming UPS stops by the house before the wife gets out of work). It works most of the time.

Hey Chavez,
I got one better, my mother in-law lives next door and she intercepts and hides them for me until wife's not around!!!  By the way sdesign, I can play again, bought my wife a new truck today for anniversary. That ought to be worth at least a new alpha and a couple of new helium rods!!!

Hello sdesign,
This is "wife"!!! A new boat-hummmmm--tried to get him a new boat 2 weeks ago!! But, he says he likes his boat he has now and I look better in the new truck. What a husband!!! And, the mother in law being in with him---that works for me because I don't have to go to the post office or pay for the stuff he gets!!!

Hey sdesign,
I read the review on the alphas @ tackletrader and I'm kind of confused!!! Did you like it or not??? Was it worth $285. Is there another that you liked better??? I still need 3 reels before Jan. tournament season, and you saw my list of reels. and what do you guys recommend as a utility/multi-purpose reel???   I appreciate all the info. that I've gotten from all of you. I didn't know this other side of reels (japan) even existed!!!  I feel ike a kid in a candy store

I would look at the new Daiwa Fuego when it comes out next month. It is going to be an awesome reel and it is only going to be 229.95.

It is supposed to be released at the end of this month or the beginning of next month. When it comes out you should be able to get it at any place that sells Daiwa reels like Bass Pro etc. I know I will pick up at least two of these reels when they first come out and maybe a few more later. They are a awesome reel and they are a perfect match for the Heliums.

Andy: Have you considered the(scroll way down the pg.) [-- login to view link --] Shimano-Japan Antares AR reel? It is slightly heavier than the TDZ family but gives a more substantial(and jewel-like) feel. especially when setting the hook. I believe its drag system is superior to my TDZs which I love but the AR is a piece-of-work in its own right. Matched with a HE76XHC or HC, it makes a formidable weapon when pitchin'/flippin'!
