I use the Cabela's Advanced Angler's backpack and it's very nice. I can fit at least 3 of the deep 3600 size boxes in it with room to spare. Plus Cabela's has a great guarantee in their stuff.
Detroit Red Wings through and through​. They've been terrible so far this year, although they've looked better the last 2 games. I sure hope they turn it around.
I have one and really like it. I bought it without holding one in my hands, but if you have the opportunity to check different rods out in person, definitely do so.
I picked one up, but it's hard to throw with 8+" of ice on the lakes...I picked it up with the thought that I'll play around with trolling it when I'm moving between spots in my kayak.
+1 for Native. I currently have an Ultimate FX 15 Tandem, which is fantastic in both tandem and solo modes. I can stand up with ease by myself and with caution with a kiddo in there.
My next purchase will be a Native Slayer Propel 13 for solo trips.
