Let's get this all straight. According to Boat Builder the Shimanos without jock straps are female reels. I'm sending off a letter to the manufacturer to get a name clarification. The ones without jock straps should be sold as Shiwomanos.

You crack me up............

10-4 on the road messed up. I blew out a boat trailer tire 2 weeks ago at 5am on my way duck hunting just before the Bald Knob exit. I live just off the 51 exit. If you are back over here on the old highway stop at Hays for a shopping spree.

I like getting to Hay's big tent sale. A man can sure blow some cash there.

LOL 1000 Dollars for a spinning reel on a crappie pole...that strap better be Gold.

You guys are a blast. I was just giving an idea of the range of options with a shimano. And no it not on a crappie rod it's on a custom live bait rod made for slinging 10 plus inches long cigar minnows and sardines to kings, cobia, and bull reds for the pier. And yes it comes with a jock strap because anyone that spends that much on a reel and tell their wife has one heck of a pair and needs it trust me. Lol!

Maybe a cup instead of just a strap
