Well an interesting weekend... Did the rounds on various river beats and Luckfield lake, one or two fish being caught and happy anglers.
Spent this afternoon with my daughter, a friend and his daughter on a secluded lake, rod and line fishing for fish for a health check. We managed to catch the required amount of Roach, Rudd and Bream, but struggled with the Carp. This means a crack of dawn start in the morning, fishing at first light, fish delivery to the lab followed by an E.A. meeting at 10am prompt.
I am going to do one or two tackle reviews, of items that we sell in our shop (or items i can order in) firstly the little Shimano EXAGE 2500RA, finding heavy spinning rods and reels hard work I have down sized, this little reel holds 150m of 10lb line and is a dream to use, very smooth with a good drag system, casts like a dream and works those little plugs a treat....
Cute little reel

Cute little popper

A nice leisurely afternoon it was and there were fish about despite the low tide, when the sun's shining you can't beat wandering along a beach chucking a plug out.
