I also have dozens of rod and reels. To add to the confusion, last summer at a garage sale I bought a like new Fenwick Legacy rod for $20. At that price, I couldn't see not buying it. I have never used it or even put a reel on it. Not sure what I should use it for? It's my fourth Fenwick rod.

I think I have five.

Hum that would be an algebra equation here lol. Sturgeon rods, steelhead rods,bottom fishing rods,fly rods,salmon rods,bass rods,walleye rods and trout rods. Don’t get me started on tackle box’s!

WOW John C, that's really impressive. Lots of quality equipment you have there. I hope you get to exercise them often.

Now, how many boats ya got?,,,,,,and how many pick-ups to haul 'em with?

Don’t get to fish half as much as I want to. Time and weather stop me more than anything. We’ve got two boats. Albemarle 305 and a Jones Brothers Bataeu.

Waaaay too many, maybe 3 dozen, but I am an inveterate bargain shopper, I find brand name rods for a couple of bucks, I can't pass it up!
