The most expensive reel I own is 49.99 h2o express reel from academy the rest are hand me downs from my buddies that i repair and use. I have slowly but surely gotten cheaper and cheaper with my own personal toys due to the fact I like to see my wife and kids have the nicer things in life and I can catch just as many with the cheap equipment. I sacrifice every other week of my life to being away from my family in the oilfield to support them and make sure they have the latest and greatest gadgets, clothes, shoes, and whatnots. I have came to a point in my life where my satisfactions take a back seat to my children's happiness. I guess what im trying to say is heck I feel I have sacrificed enough to see them happy and in some way feel I deserve the rod as a sort of gift from above for thinking of others before myself. Im sure im not much different than most on this site. Im sure a lot of others that read this fit in these same shoes as I do. We all sacrifice some everyday to see our children are better off than we were at there age. So Billy any consideration for my chance to get one of your awesome rods will be greatly appreciated...and thanks for just stepping up and helping the site survive with your advertisment. If I could I would.
