great white

done

Nice fish in some nice weather Looking forward to getting out there again soon

Choices are vast But to get one rod to do it all, a soft braid rod in the 12-20 class would get response from small fish and able to cope with the odd large fish. I have a few Finn Nor fixed spools and they are great. the bigger ones have huge drag settings. The main problem would be the braid. I generally use 30lb, but small breaming reels are filled with lighter and deeper water reels are 50lb. Easy to change spools on a fixed spool, but the extra spool and two lots of braid alone, would use most of your budget

Good luck all we are away so I was hoping for a reschedule, but it looks like the weather will be kind for a change. I hope that a few COD show up in case you have forgotten , this is what they look like. LOL

Belated Happy Birthday Terry Hope that you had great day

Happy Birthday Oli Have a great day

Look at the price of the tickets. Wow But thinking back to what we were being paid in 1980, I expect it was still one to save up for

Bound to catch some now. Well I might if I can get a break from this damn weather

Bugger servicing or fueling up that lot. I struggle to get out enough now, so that would make each trip very costly

Hi Steve I presume that it is a travel rod you are after. I use a Shimano up to 100g , I could let you have the details if you like Mine is the 3 mtr one and a tad long, I borrowed Dan's 2.7 this year for Norway and it had a better balance.

Happy Birthday Andy Have a great day.

I too decided to give the constant rain a miss. Just about finished the bathroom project at the weekend, Wendy is very pleased with it, so I now need a weather window to use up the brownie points.

Thanks Mick

Thanks Lofty and all who liked the picture.

Hope that works for you Ian, I believe the light nights tend to get calm are you at the meeting tonight I still have one of your tops at home.

Thanks Tony Glad you liked it. Didn't finish it in time for your on flight reading.

Thanks Rob The 20/30 bent very nicely and was why I was coaching myself to take it easy and not "high stick" my rod

Have a great time Steve I like to try to do reports and capture some pictures from fishing holidays. but stories over a beer are always good too

Thanks Greg Makes it worth the effort when people enjoy it

Very pleased that you enjoyed it.

Thanks all, glad you liked it did it as a reference/ memory aid in the future. May try to put a video together, but not for a while. LOL Yes it took a few sessions to write, referring to the photos and a few notes taken on holiday, also helped a lot by the whats ap photo's from the guys. You are right Chris 50 Krona for the weeks fuel would have been great. Mal it took me a while to recover too. But back to tiling now.

Thanks Peter

Thanks Jerry. I am sure it can, hopefully by one of our group next year.

Probably best viewed on a monitor, hope that you enjoy reading it.
