nice rigs, i went to cabelas and bought a new tackle box, Venice ate my other one, managed to save most of the baits before it sunk to the bottom. Also stripped one of my reels on the AWESOME REDFISH and went and bought one of the salt striker 4000's

A Curado 200E7 would fit that rod better than a Calcutta:grinpimp:
I know several people that have the Calcutta reels...either they love them or hate them.
