    Coronavirus and work party,s

    Terry im sure while this virus is going about it would be more reasonable for your club to just hold fire for the time being. Clean ups and new swims can be built anytime not when there is a national emergency going on. 👍🎣

    Another personal review

    Just the sort of thing id like. Been using the korum 2 rod protracted holdall. And as good as it is. It would be really nice if it was just alittle bigger. Some time feel like my rods and baitrunners are squashed in there abit to closely. Will definitely be looking to replace the 2 rod one soon. 👍

    The Holy Grail
