RE: Lets see those Big Cat rods
I don't have a way to get pictures on here, but I use a 7'6 Catmaxx pole with a baitcaster Catmaxx reel, a 8' Catmaxx pole with a Catmaxx Spinning Reel (EXCELLENT SETUP), and I also use a Shakespear Contender setup for some smaller cats.
All of these poles are rigged with braided line and heavy weights.
