Just ordered my new baitcaster combo

Denny_K · 03-08-06, 08:29 PM

I'm excited just got off the phone with BPS.I ordered a new baitcaster combo rod/reel. I ordered the Bass Pro Shops Extreme baitcast combo.
*left-hand retreive 5.4:1 gear ratio.Rod is Extreme XPS has 60 million modulus graphite blank .It also has the ITB inertial transfer braking.I thought for $119.98 + shipping handling and others= $137.98 that's not to bad.Well If anyone has one of these It would be great to hear from you.Thanks P.s. this is my first Baitcaster Denny

I have the extreme reel in the 6.3:1 gear ratio. Great reel. Also ask KH and Rebbasser. Reb recommended it to me and im glad he did.

Denny_K · 03-08-06, 09:30 PM

Thanks Lovin,
I have 2 of the extreme spinning reels/rod combo's and I love them still works great after yrs. of use

Denny

Rebbasser · 03-08-06, 09:44 PM

lizardsrule · 03-08-06, 10:27 PM

Denny I don't have any Extreme rods or reels but the recomendation of others is reason enough. Just watch out the bait monkey will soon be biting again. One baitcasting combo turns into two then into three and so on. I never thought I would be able to or enjoy baitcasters as much as i do. They are just plain fun to use.

JB · 03-09-06, 07:36 AM

that you'll have to perform on the new setup...I'll call doctor bombay and be right over!

Denny_K · 03-09-06, 04:44 PM

Denny

JB · 03-09-06, 05:39 PM

yea folks thats right,
this woman i worked beside for years picks her skin till it bleeds and then goes to a next spot, esp. if shes worked up bout something...its gross..by the end of the day she'll have a face full of small scabs.....
that just ain't right I tell Ya!

bass kicker · 03-09-06, 08:36 PM

that is pretty gross

Bass Ackwards · 03-15-06, 02:40 PM

She sounds like a crank addict, does it take her all day to complete one task?

bass kicker · 03-15-06, 03:12 PM

i might get my dad a bps extreme reel for fathers day because i broke his old reel

Denny_K · 03-15-06, 05:48 PM

Denny

zooker · 03-15-06, 07:10 PM

denny
why did you choose a lefty reel?? or are you also a southpaw??

zooker

Denny_K · 03-15-06, 08:33 PM

Hey Zooker.I went with the left retreive cause I'm right handed and I'm use to reeling with my left hand with the spinning outfits.Plus I get a good hook set with my right arm. Plus I can hold the b.c. and put one of my fingers on the line for contact.thanks for asking c-ya Z
Denny

bass kicker · 03-15-06, 08:37 PM

i am swith handed i can do both

lovinfishin9 · 03-15-06, 08:39 PM

hey im right handed and i reel with my left hand too, it just makes more sense to me.

JB · 03-15-06, 08:44 PM

is left handed too, but use rightsided handles on my baitcasters..i bet i fished for 10 years before someone pointed out to me that righthanders cast with thier right hand and switch the rod over to the left hand...I've always thrown all rods with the left and then reel with the right, but do almost everything left handed...........
well almost everything rofl

Denny_K · 03-15-06, 08:51 PM

Jb,
I seen Jimmy houston do that on his fishing show I was watching the other day.switch hands,cast right handed and reel right handed.I never thought about it till ya told me.
good day

Denny

lovinfishin9 · 03-15-06, 11:26 PM

thats why i use left handed rells, i dont have to switch hands. and i just like the idea of having my strong hand on the rod to set the hook.
