Will this work day ever end? I will have my first ever G. Loomis rod waiting for me when I get home. Found a super deal (a relative term) on eBay for a BCR803 GLX worm rod. I already have several higher end rods so I'm not expecting the difference to be earth shattering but I do want to see if they're really worth the big bucks. I honestly hope not... I can't afford another one :)

This of course means I'm going to have to go out and freeze my keister off tomorrow and try it out.

I'd like a report please. About the rod....not the keister. :shock:

GLX are Awesome rods. Top 3 for sure in my opinion.

The forecast for the weekend is mid 40's here, so if the wind will stay down I'm going to go out after it gets above freezing and sling a shakey head for a couple hours. Can't wait to see how it feels. I'll let you guys know my impressions the end of the weekend.

Just curious, what are the other 2?

In my opinion and mine only I would say the St Croix legend elite series and for pure design and aesthetics...Megabass rods.

Nothing beats a custom rod though.... especially if using these blanks.

Some day, I hope to have the opportunity to test your theory. For me, a $100 rod is still stretching it, butover the years I've collected a handful of them. :lol:

Sorry Denny....I wasn't trying to flaunt anything. HONEST! I only get my $100 dollar rods from BPS and they are all Abu Garcias because they guarantee them forever with sales receipts if ANYTHING happens to them. This justifies it for me cause they are easily replaced for free.
 
It's 2:00 AM and I'm on a bus with 47 other people from church heading to Washington DC. We are somewhere in Indiana right now....east of Terra Haute (spelling?). There's about 1000 of us total in a very large bus caravan.

Believe it or not, this bus has a wireless server that I'm connected to. Technology impresses me sometimes. =D>

DANG it's cold outside!
 
Thanks WaterWings. All is safe too as.....We are on a Mission from God! [-o<

Just stopped at a rest stop in the Appalachian Mtns. Still very cold, but pretty. I'll update as I can. Prayers or us all certainly welcome.
 
How often are you guys stopping? On past charter bus trips for school functions, on 12-20 hour rides, we always tried to stop at least every 3-4 hours. Hope you took a camera with you to snag us some scenic scenes to share here from your trip. :)

We arrived at our hotel 24 hours after we left which was about 5:00 PM tonight. We are tired. Stopped (during the day) about every 3-4 hours. During the night.....really only once (around) 1:30 AM.

Have my camera....I'll try to take some pics. I'm here with 1000 youth members from Missouri. Most of my pics so far have been of them. These kids are amazing!
