New Gear!



We recently replaced the aging stainless-and-resin maintackle and sheet with a new, 3/8-inch line and composite Ronstan block -- a birthday gift from Mrs. Matt, who knows the way to a man's heart. The cam cleats on the block also have a slight angle to them, making it much easier to let the main in and out from the helm. The new rig has performed admirably in two outings, including this one in moderate air in early November.
