maxwell Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 wutcha trippin on taco! that is a pretty nifty lookin stick! Quote
Taco Posted December 16, 2008 Author Posted December 16, 2008 Where's Toolman? My new stick is all of 6'6" and can punch out a 40' cast... 50' w/tailwind and a doublehaul. Quote
toolman Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 Sweet lookin' piece of history there Hoss...Congrats... Bill Philipson built real fishing rods, not just show pieces. That's why that little stick casts so sweet. It sure looks like it's in mint condition. Quote
SilverDoctor Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 Nice Philipson, I have a couple of vintage fiberglass Philipson's. Super rods with great action. That one is a real treasure. Quote
Taco Posted December 16, 2008 Author Posted December 16, 2008 Dear Abby, My wife just threatened me with physical violence if I bought any more stuff on Ebay. Her exact words were "I kill ya if I find any more PayPal receipts" Do you think I should tell her about my 3 purchases in the last week including the rod above? I'm really not that worried about it because the doghouse is quite comfortable. My only real cause for concern is the new life insurance policy she recently took out on me. I really have no idea what she's carrying on about because I only have 9 fiberglass rods and a similar number of graphite ones, plus I have recently taken steps to pair down my collection. Do I have any cause for concern?? Perplexed In Claresholm Quote
agbff Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 i think it really just comes down to who can run faster... you or your wife? Quote

Taco Posted December 17, 2008 Author Posted December 17, 2008 i think it really just comes down to who can run faster... you or your wife? Oh I still can outrun the old girl but she's sneaky, I think it's her La Cosa Nostra blood, her grandfather was associated somehow with the more famous Pass rumrunner back in the day Remember this!! Poof..yer a goner. Nice rod BTW....I gt some old glass here somewhere. The Doghouse Sorry Clive our dog house ain't like that. I know, I've been in it often enough Quote
jksnijders Posted December 18, 2008 Posted December 18, 2008 Damn Ebay... Had a few too many one night, woke up the next morning with a sore head and an old Gibson.. Nice rod BTW.. Quote
LynnF Posted December 18, 2008 Posted December 18, 2008 Wow....Merry Christmas to you! That old stuff is lost on me - I like the shiny new stuff. But I'd love to give her a go sometime. I could provide you some tips to keep you out of the doghouse if you would be willing LOL Here's a freebie - random foreplay with no strings. You'll be EBAYing through to New Year's. Nice purchase.

Cuttbow Yo Cuttbow, single spey? yeah but only about 10x rod length. Just noticed your location, you living over there in the acreages w/the rest of Claresholm's upper crust and my little brother? I myself reside in the lower rent part of town and only allowed over there to visit on occasion. Quote
