a *little* christmas miracle...

"can't be stupid, unless you show it"


so, yesterday, came off the lake and got back to my place.
Went to back into the garage w/trailer, and noticed still had three rods in vertical holders.

Got distracted and ...CRUNCH!!! -- all three; my favorite crappie rods too.

6' Powerlight IM7 graphite...
Discontinued, 2 years ago...dangit

Called eagle claw this morning; just looking to see it they had similar. Was then told, 'discontinued 2 years ago". I already knew this as I had looked again 6 months ago...
So I asked for the old part number; maybe find ONE on the interwebs; somehow...


Fella puts me on hold to look thru old catalogs for part number...No luck.


Puts me back on hold; come back to the phone and tells me he found THE LAST 6 RODS of this flavor!!!




bought all 6; VERY HAPPY CHRISTMAS TO ME!!!!!



:santa...and happy christmas/happy new years to all y'all!

Merry Christmas indeed.

It is a shame to crunch the ones you had but at least it did work out finding the last 6 they had

A Merry Christmas indeed!

Merry Christmas and a Happy fishing New Year :santa :fish

Sometimes things just work out. :santa

Nice score. Hopefully they last longer than the last batch... :Rofl

Sounds like it was meant to be. Congrats!

KABOOM is sometimes a bad thing , but it sounds like all was not lost ....
congrats on the replacement droids my friend :highfive
merry Christmas
