So when you say 'haven't used in a while', do ya really mean, "Haven't caught chit on them?"

Dang shame, all those setups and ya still can't catch feeeesh....

You have a good eye.
They are custom wrapped Harnell's 542, and 552. There is also another matching 552 outside the pic, and another matching 721.
They're not for sale though.

The Tiger/Shimano set up is Pending.

T Man - I can catch mackerel and squid with the best of them.

The Cork Puppy is a great invention. It really does work, it displaces the point of contact along a 4" area so it will not crush the cork or the blank. Its also has ribs machined into it, so the reel will not twist side to side on the rod.
-I use it on all my jigsticks, wether its cork wrapped or not.

There is usually some minor customization that need to be done to the clamp bolts. In most cases you will need to shorten the bolt about 3/8th in. Its easy to do with a hacksaw.
Pictured below is a Diawa Saltist 40 that I just mounted. I use Stainless Bolts, and Stainless Lock Nuts on my reels (just a personal preference).
However, the stock reel bolts will work just fine.



On Avets you will need to shorten the bolts, and the stock nuts. Again, its not hard to do now that you have the recipe.
Avet JX on a 90 J - Note the thin Piece of Rubber Inner Tube I use under the Reel Foot. No crushing here.

My Hobie is staying right here. I can Mothership it off the skiff.
-I've been known to pick up hitch hikers from time to time. Some even boarding the skiff for lunch.
