From Noreast board....
Sat at summerset show

I had the great pleasure to meet Paul and Kil at the show Saturday.
Paul showed me his Acid rap rods along with his others on display.
Kil was very gracious and helpful in explaining his style for yellow fin jigging and proper equipments used for North East Cod jigging.
The reason for my visit was to gather information from both of these
men. For me the 7 hr round trip drive and the 4 hours I spent at the show was a success. I also spent time looking\learning about selections of charters\Head boats, terminal tackle and Lures.

While I was around the JPR rod booth both Paul and Kil were busey discussing equipment and Tech with many other fishermen.
Again thanks to you two Guys for the time spent with me.

Later I found the ZEEBAAS CO. Booth where I was able to look closer at
their 40lb drag reel. I started taking photos and the rep said he have to charge me for them. He was kidding I think....
Mr Bill, Take a close look at the size of the handels as if I remember you are
some what finicky about how some handels fit.
Also handeled some Van Stals with simulair empressions.

 

For the surf fishermen their where 2 booths with these Bazokas\Poatato launchers, These were cool. C02 proppeled bait. This could be a subject all
by it's self. I could see one on the Bow of the Big E launching top water plugs.

Of the Charter boat Booths, Black Rose with Cpt Rich was worth visiting with.
His display showed popular Tuna Lures, popular Tuna dishes and
popular Tuna fishermen.

 

And finally an another item seen at the show that has been disscussed on
360 is the attraction to or lack of to Pink fishing Rods, Reels and apperal,

Several booths at this show carried this Gender of gear.
and apeared to be popular with a paticular "Type" of fishermen.

 

These were cust. of T.D. in the pic.
Come on guy's
I would not want to be misunderstood...
Besides
I saw many different plates on the cars in the parking lot, even some from Canada.....

The coating color on the ZEEBAAS? Gun Meatal maybe?

I am pretty impressed with ths simplicity and high quality.
As new Stella 20000 is over $1200, Zeebass doesn't look expensive anymore.
..........................................................
I agree it is a work of art.. but the reel is 60% of a Stella 20000. How can it
match.?? that is a hypothecial questtion, as how can a reel be more powerful than a 16\0 penn but smaller ( 1960's question)

Enjoy the photos as they are what they are..
