Give Me 2 Fishing Rods
![]()
I was fishing on this pond with you know who. He said, “Hey there fellow; whatcha trying to prove only showing up with 2 fishing rods?” At that point, I was shaking thinking I had made a big mistake only showing up with one spinning rod and a casting rod. I didn’t want to bring too many rods. “I know you don’t owe me, but I wish you’d let me ask one favor from you; won’t you give me 3 casts, give me 3 casts mister, give me 3 casts on the lake minster, give 3 casts on the lake and you will never see me again no more…for sure,” I pleaded. I’m telling you it wasn’t any fun looking eye to eye with him, but he said, “Okay fellow, you got 3 casts and no more.” So, I flipped my first cast into an opening no bigger than a quarter in a field of lily pads, the next cast I pitched it right beside a laying down log, and the last cast I threw the lure a country mile landing alongside a boat dock landing without a splash. I twitch the lure and a fat ole bass ate it. Quickly, I reeled it in, unhooked it, turned around and went screaming joyfully down the boat ramp.
It would be hard to only pick one model of fishing rods to go fishing with, but if you had to a good choice would be the Quantum Tour Edition PT rod. These rods are built with 62-million Hi-strain modulus graphite blanks and designed for serious tournament anglers with features that make them great choices for any angler.
The Quantum Tour Edition PT casting rod (www.quantumfishing.com) comes in 6 models. All of the Quantum Tour Edition PT casting rods has Fuji ECS reel seats while the spinning models come with Fuji IPS reel seats. The casting models have 3 different rod handle lengths and the spinning 2 models. Each rod also features a unique wrap-around I.D. band with the rod action printed on it. All of the Quantum Tour Edition PT rods are one piece rods.

Now that guy was lean, mean, big and bad, Lord, but I heard him yell, “Hey there fellow with your 2 rods where you running off to don’t you want to go fishing?” Now that was the break I was looking for; so, I stopped in my tracks and ran back jumping into his boat yelling, “give me 3 more cast!”
