Shout Stay. Used a few times for slow jigging for blue-backed fish. After use, it was rinsed with water and stored, so there are no noticeable stains, rust, stickiness, or strange odors, and the condition is good. There are no noticeable scratches or deformations, and there are no problems with use. It's a beautiful item, but please refrain from purchasing if you are very particular. If you are looking for something for blue-backed fish or Japanese hairtail, please consider this.
