Are you guys fashion models or fishermen.

Color doesn't matter to me, how good it works does.

Not me. Id rather have a purple walmart reel than an islander, any day!

Sarcasm aside, if I had a choice, I would take Purple/Blue/Black over any other colours. That being said, if it costs me a single dime more, eff that!

People still like to give me flack because I have a pair of the Simms G3 guide waders, with the super special and functional camo pocket dealy. I think the camo is the only difference between the normal and limited edition versions, and an extra 50 dollars! Except, mine were only 250, and a present. Options are nice, but for me, they better not cost extra if they dont add any functional value!

But if someone wants to pay for powder coating, or extra for a different colour, i wouldnt hold it against them. Especially if its a bad my friend royal purple pin or fly reel!

If u cared enough about the color of ur truck/car when u bought it then match it if not who cares

[mko72]

Forget matching.  Forget what anyone else wants, just pick the color you like best.

Gold it is!

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOURNS!


What kind of reel did you get?

[Ed]

Great Thread??

I'm sorry but color does matter to me! I went with silver cause it matches my whole outfit. I represent my brands big time! I had a custom Simms jacket made so that it's skin tight so it showed off the guns and the man pecs with SIMMS right across the back and Simms G4 waders 2 sizes too small so it makes my butt look good. I also had SIMMS in large lettering put down 1 leg so that the fish knew I wasn't cheap and that I mean business when I'm in the water.  You won't catch fish if you don't have the reel color right!

Where did you get all that gear? I got some serious shopping to do...

[Blougheed]

Depends on the species you go for with your pin. i have a black islander but i would go for slate!

[Tadpole]

Get some bling, and don't forget about matching man-purse.

With all the chat about Knicks on the reel, I just have one question. Do you guy tow your reels behind the truck when you go to the flow?

[SteelheadAdict]

I'm hard on gear. Ever since I could walk, if anyone is going to break something it'll be me. I guess at 6'5 250lbs. And sometimes fishing 4-5 days a week, yea I guess my reel looks like it was dragged behind my truck.
I blame it on all those sexy fish that make me put my rod on the rocks to take pics with them.
