There's Shimano and there's Shimano

Things have been a little crazy around here and I haven't posted anything for a while.
The other day, as I was riding my bike trying to sort things through my head, I decided I needed new brakes and looked to see what I had and was blown away to find Shimano brakes on my bicycle.
When it comes to fishing products, Shimano is one of the companies that has learned to straddle that fine line of both economy and quality.
As it stands right now, you're not going to run out to Wal-Mart and pick up a $10 Shimano reel. But, if you're willing to shell out around 15 or 20, you're in business and you're probably going to buy something that will last many fishing expeditions.
I was looking over my fishing equipment and suddenly realized that I don't have much Shimano paraphernalia despite what I just said. Maybe it's marketing--maybe it's because it's too easy for people to give me fishing equipment come gift time. Whatever the reason, if you're just beginning to fill your tackle box, Shimano is going to help you when it comes to economy and quality.
