Man ...nothin' like a foam grip on yer fishin' pole. Makes me wanna go catch some bluegill. I think everyone is in agreeance that tackle is a status symbol. It's like automobiles....If you haven't driven a Ferrari or a Porsche you just wouldn't understand. And if you haven't, you probably resort to the tired reasoning/cover up that your 74 'Vette with the off brand raised white letter tires would "eat up any Porsh". There are a lot of fun pursuits than can be made better with superior technology. Good day.
