Re: A new way to fish
I have to admit that in a pinch I have fished with an ultralight spinning reel on a flyrod... even upside-down like that when the reel was a lefty. However I never tried threading the line through the hook keeper at the top of the grip. That sure adds an element of sport!

Re: A new way to fish
Reminds me of those Chinese tackle ads we posted a couple years ago, where the reels were on backwards. Attention to detail cab ne hard.

Gidget was not much of an outdoorsy person. Here she is again, and at least she's dressed appropriately.

Re: A new way to fish
there's some new ad for the latest wonder drug...Phlemohoc or some such....with grandpa holding the spinning reel upside down. Perhaps it's just the complexity of Tommy's reels that has everyone so confused!

You've got to be talented, and not blonde, to use them to there fullest potential. Gidget must have been blonde, or had a blonde teacher, at some point.john elder wrote:there's some new ad for the latest wonder drug...Phlemohoc or some such....with grandpa holding the spinning reel upside down.
