Your right John! It's the craftsman in me. When I do or see something so well done, I want everyone to know that it's was created with a no compromise mentality. Only from a pure love of what someone is doing can produce the quality that is unmatched. I only push products I know are as good as the work I do. As for ZeeBaas, I'm trying to help out one of the last true 100% american built products from a man who really cares about what he offers to us.

Take an out of body experience for a little bit and look in your threads on how you ballwash for ZeeBaas. There is no question on how you like them and it is understandable, they are sweet reels - for some people. But you come across as a zealot, perhaps more so than even you think. I've been on this board for a while and was on web/BBS for longer and I say this with all sincereness, the tone you take Pro ZB is like that of a fanatical salesman, no soft sell at all.
That's just it, there is nothing to prove. Show your love for fishing, you r enjoyment. The ZeeBaas will take care of itself. You don't need to prove it's mettle by trashing it's principle competitor. Honestly, it does not do the ZeeBaas much good - as a sales tool - to be so fanatically for ZB and so flamatory against VS...
Very nice work remodeling (I don't think remodeling is the right word here), way out of my league for "Home Improvements", but very nice work  |

I should be catching Z's, instead spending my nights, catching fish and letting them all go!

I had 2 van staals fail on me while fishing. One while pencil popping and the other anti reverse bearing gave out w/fish on. They were repaired at no cost and the van staal customer service is top notch. No problems with my 7" vs pliers though. To me I still would not use anything else.

Editorial note on the Pol, it does look like there is a tie at this time between:
the same problem more than once with three votes
and
