what kind of pole is this?

Was out at the pier the other day and came across this feller who had this custom rod. Wasn’t sure if this was new Penn Slammer ‘wood’ edition or what??? Even had a custom wooden spool, with a graphite type handle for reeling in the big one. Not sure of the max drag though.

That 1:1 gear ratio on that reel will be great for cranking in tuna…I’ll take a set of 5!

Check out the Hi-Tec bungee cord tie down, hooked to the railing:smiley:

That is special.

what pier is that?

Fish on!.. ahhh such sweet words!

That my friends is a homemade no stab pier gaffe. looks like you could lower the loop and haul the big ones up to the pier with that. Either that or it’s a carpenter’s kid fishing pole.

I’m pretty sure it’s a heavy action rod.

If you’re lucky enough to be fishing, you’re lucky enough.

Looks like one of them flipping stick the bass boys use running 70 mph!
