Breakin' in my Billy StiX...what a dream come true!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Offshore with Farmer Jim and his nephew and Sidecutter yesterday. I'll let our good Captain tell that tale. What this is about is that I broke in my new Flounder StiX on that trip as we boxed around 80 Chicken dolphin and realeased about half again as many. I may have to send the rod back to Billy and have him take the flounder off and slap me on a dolphin! The action was machine-gun fast and some of them were in the 3 1/2 lb range. All jumpers and all spectacular in appearance. The water was delicious looking and I was tremendously impressed with the handling of my new Billy StiX. Most of the tugs were ferocious and that rod maintained control at all times. If you haven't made the committment yet you NEED to, I ain't lyin'! It IS the most fun you can have catching a fish.
Billy, Thanks again!, Sidecutter and I were giving the chickens a very hard time with our BIlly StiX. I have used a LOT of different kinds, types, brands of rods in the last 55 years and I can say with out hesitation, reservation, or qualification that these are the very best rods I've ever caught fish on. What ever is in second place, ain't even close!
