Smooth off the 'new' tip. Pop a new tip top guide on their and you have a new rod!

And the winner is... drum roll TCook!!

Congratulations TCook!

Apparently a giant smallmouth beats out everything else on this website. Go figure ;D This was the winning picture:


I will contact WaveSpin Reels and get back with you shortly to tell you how you order your new WaveSpin Reel of your choice. I know I'm enjoying the new DH 3000z I picked up.

Thank you very much Dan! I really appreciate the opportunity to win great prizes such as a wavespin reel. I have been sceptical of these reels before but look forward to giving the DH 3000z a try as you recommended. Who knows maybe I will really like it. Thanks again
FISH HARD!!!

I had some issues with my original reel - one of the first they made years ago - grabbing super line on some casts. They redesigned the spool about 3 years ago and now my casts are smooth and it does seem to help with tangles, though I always recommend pulling your line tight by hand and flipping the bale by hand. I've done that for years now without really thinking of it. I know some of the real good anglers in Michigan like LGMOUTH use them almost daily.

Hopefully, you'll find a good use for the reel. I appreciate that WaveSpin Reel is willing to provide some extra value to the members here.
