Wow, I have a modest amount of gear compared to some of you guys!! ;D

I have:
Rods:

Sage 3113 Custom Level wind Rod.
Sage 2106  CT Factory Level wind
Trophy XL 10'6" Level wind
Shimano IZT86M 8'6" Trigger Rod
Berkley Spincasting Rod 6'
Ugly Stick 11' Sturgeon/Barfishing Rod

Reels:
Shimano Calcutta 401TE

That is it, but it works good for me and I am hoping to get some more gear and different types of gear when the Girlfriend finishes school.  Just can afford it right now! ;) ;D

Level wind gear
Abu 6500 C3 (solid as hell)
Daiwa Millionaire S (this reel works, but not well)
Daiwa Heartland 10'6" float rod (indestructible)
Berkley Canadian Specialist 8lbs-15lbs 8'6" rod (great for casting lighter lures)

Spinning gear
lots of old burned out spinning reels kept for no good reason
Shimano Slade 4000 (not too smooth and not as durable as I would like thus doesnt get much use)
old Daiwa Procaster spinning rod 8-15lbs (workhorse of a rod and nice and soft)

Fly gear
BFR 355 reel with 2 spools (never let me down yet)
Cortland Fair play fast sinking line 6wt (it works ok)
SA Headstart line 6wt (getting old but I use it 90% of the time)
spool for a Teton Tioga 8LA (but no reel)
Sage Launch 6wt 4pc (hasnt been around long yet but i like it)
Protac Highwater 6wt 9' (great rod, but pretty slow)

Miscellanious
Clipper Tripper canoe (AMAZING boat) with Scotty rod holders and bent shaft paddles
Bare Sport 5 waders and Springbrook felt soles (like 4x4 with a snorkle kit...you can go anywhere)

doin' a rough count in my head i have 7 fly rods, 6 spinning rods, 3 casting rods, 2 sturgeon rods, 1 centrepin rod. And probably a few i forget.

I  did a total retail value tally on FishBC a couple months ago. It was somewhere near $20K. Not including my fishin' truck.
