8 9 fly rod and reel lesder and tippet El Jefe v2 9’ Weight Four Section Standard Fly Fishing Kit, 5wt

Early reels in this series, such as mine, had an audible anti-reverse that made a clicking sound when the anti-reverse was switched on, but in about 1980 they changed the design to make the anti-reverse silent Above is a photo of such a later version where they attached a spring loaded lever (red arrow) to the anti-reverse dog and on the other end it was attached to a black plastic block (blue X) mounted on the drive gear's shaft

The offset or straight shank worm hook makes it possible to rig soft plastic baits weedless, a critical aspect of fishing in heavy cover

The Mepps Giant Killer can be used any time of the season but because of the treble hook it will pick up some weeds in late July and August

Its also made sturdy and highly durable thanks to its double anodize forged CNC aluminum spool, round knob, and screw-in handle

Types of Frog Lures Since the most commonly fished type of frog lure is the hollow body style, thats all were covering on this page

Cork, reel seat, and male ferrule were all replaced by Bob Summers in 2011, plus new wraps and varnish by Bob Summers
