Thanks for the initial report :). I look forward to your report on the reels after quite a few days using them. I'm really happy so far with only one morning using them. The line creep was minimal and there was none after a couple more turns like you say. They are smooth for sure :cool:.

Can't wait to read your Bamtown report after the weekend.

Cheers,
John
 
New amundson meets New Kimbyote rod

Just thought I'd share what the Easter bunny brought me and to give Justin Kim (kimbyote) a little boost for the nice job he did on this custom 10'6" mooching rod he built for me. Had to go into PNT on the way home and all the chatter on the forum about the reel made have a weak moment. Haven't got the visa bill yet but!! Loaded with 50 yards of backing,300 yards of 40lb spider wire and a 60 ft top shot of 30lb maxima.
Hope to win the sfbc derby with this bad boy-I hear my Islander softly crying in the corner! LOL

Got my Blue beauty today. Feels like a work of art. I'll break her in at Nootka on the 21st of July.

Are you lads still liking your Amundson's. I'm thinking of buying myself one for Christmas.
I used mine all last year as my main reel-I have MR3's and trophys but used my amundson and was happy with it. I fish very deep and almost exclusively WCVI-except when FA gives me a ride to Grants reef
 
Great reel , the reel was put to test with sockeye fishing this year , drag is very smooth .

Cheers :)
 
Thanks guys, I just picked one up at PNT in Richmond.I can't say enough about the good service I was treated to.
The price was right too at $249.
