My sweeet new rod
I picked it up today from Todd at Juno Bait. And it turned out perfect!!!
It is a 6'8" ORIGINAL Gatorglass I bought from Sonny, I think it was longer but it was cut down a little. It is 50-80 with Fuji SiN Turbos and a size 20 Aftco HD tip It has a 14" foregrip, 12" slickbutt, and an Amtak metal gimbal and reelseat
I might take it out with my 6/0 on it for some Bulls
Later on, once I get more money I think I'm going with a 30w, probably Avet, I think I'll do 600yds of 80# and then a small topshot of 80# mono
I do you think i shud spool it?
Pier-rat-----that cann't be the same rod-------that is one good looking set -up--------now its ready for me to buy it back from you--- ---thanks for bring that rod back to life SWEET

That looks real nice, Penn made those new 114HSP 6/0's
with I think brass spools again. 2.9:1
I dunno the Avets are really nice for the price if you get a used one.
I got to cast Marks a few times with his harnell and it was smooth.

I don't think I could do that Sonny
I talked to a few people, and they said it was made right before Gatorglass went under, so Gus (the owner) made the blanks for a Star Rods to keep them in buisness. Apparently, that's when this rod was made I'm now officially an SFSC member now, I have real Gatorglass now

I have my 6/0 wide on it now. I've caught a few nice fish on it, but, I'm looking to upgrade a little, to something a little smoother, with more drag
