I don't worry too much about accidently kicking them off the deck or stepping on a line guide. Yes boys, go ahead and admit it, we've all done that.
I'll willingly admit I've done that on more than one occasion. I put my gear through hell sometimes. I use a mixture of rods as well but I've been buying more abu garcia rods and reels lately. Love how smooth the reels are and how tough the rods are. Unfortunately some of my abu set ups are expensive but I'm willingly to shell out some money as long as it's going towards something I love to do.
