Have to agree with the old reel theory,only use 3500b's,I don't cast to the horizon so the line lay criticism is not a problem,great clutch,bomb proof reel.
Funny how things turn up just found an old York Amalgamation Specimen Records list 1975 listing a Burbot Eel of 2 pound,not saying it was caught in 1975,but its on the list,could this have been the stuffed fish ?.
This was in the 1975 year book,some very interesting weights compared to today's...
Nothing worse than trying to pack a wet brolly away,in the dark in the rain when its a tight fit.Tried loads,now got the ESP 4 rod quiver,brolly with storm sides goes in no problem.You don't need to take 4 rods,but I've found it the only way to get a decent size brolly compartment .
Black Spider,now that is a blast from the past Bill.Used it in the 70',got it from Terry Eustace (I think),can still remember where is was I first tried it !!.
Must have missed something here,'inline or running',should this be fixed or running ?.Surely an inline can be fished both fixed and running,as can any lead system.
Many moons ago,fishing rivers like the Yorkshire Ouse ,which comes up a bit quick at times ,you could be a bit unprepared ,so if 4oz was'nt holding add another 2oz on etc,found it no problem.
With all the smashed brollies about,I was wondering has anyone a pole they would like to sell ?.Looking for an extending one,with the standard male thread on top,cheers.
