Ha! Back in the 1970s we used to tangle with the bulls at the jetties with Zebco 202s and 404s. I remember I had a Spirit of 76 red, white, and blue fiberglass fishing pole with a Zebco 202 and my brothers and dad had 404's. Of course, the bulls won until my grandpa bought my twin and I a couple of level winds sporting old style braided line (100 lb test or so) on stout "deep sea" fishing poles. Those stout rods and reels may be the birthday present I remember best from our years growing up in Lake Charles. We put out first bulls in the boat the next trip to the jetties.
