Well, just picked up a sweet combo for a heck of a deal.

Quantum Energy PTxm MetalX and a St. Croix Avid Casting Rod for Bass. I bought this specifically for the reel, which (next week!) will convert to my salmon slammer.

I think I'll have to fish the afternoon away to test out this bad boy.

Bought the combo for $100.00, retail for the both is $379.92
