I would say my best purchase was my Shimano Calais 200 reel, it's about 10 years old and is built like a watch. I look forward to using it every time I hit the river. What's some of your guy's/gal's favorite tackle/equip items you've purchased over the years ?

Love my factory Sage rods too CT296 and CT286.

I have two G loomis 1261c rods 10'6 4-10.. they are my favorite silver/steelhead rod of all time. It would be cool if they would start making them again.

Dear Mr. Brewer-

You fool. Perhaps you should use THE essential piece of equipment to complete any fishing adventure on yourself - it has a special place in my heart.

+1 on the English Pete fish bonker. A bitch to pack in on a long brush busting adventure, but it comes in handy if' you run into Edgar or Romulus.

my 4 ABU 2500Cs. like a 2/3 scale 5500C, but with a free floating spool(made a decade before shimano came up with "super free"). combined with my 9'6", 6'10 lami esprit baitcasting stick, the ultimate summer run and low water coho slayer.

Smooth drag and can cast a mile!
