 :shk What the heck! It seems like I have a different strain of TA. I went to the hardware store to buy something and I forgot what it was so I bought a couple of nuts and bolts then I forgot where I wanted to use them. If I could just remember where the tackle shop is I would have had a better day. Am I getting old or am I just retarded? OK, don't answer that.  :blush: :hyst: :hyst:

No need for some nuts and bolts now, but I go to a variety of shops all the time, even with the wife, i.e. cake supply, linen, hardware, and other non-fishing related stores, but I always end up going home with something that is either directly related to fishing or used in something related to fishing, even bolts and nuts!

Awesome rods those. I had a Palms Elua Shoregun 103XH. The best spinning rod I ever owned. By far.

Been a while, but been a scary while nonetheless.


It all started with losing around 5 cranks in early Jan due to murky water, wind, unstable trolling capabilities and a not so effective lure retriever and naturally not re-tying regularly when fishing rockpiles.


I needed new cranks!


So I bought 43, ranging from Rapala DT 16’s and 20’s to Strike King 5 and 6 XD’s. Total cost R4397.


Then I flew to West Africa for two weeks, was back a week when I flew to Canada for another two weeks and came back with a Minn Kota Ulterra 80lb 24v trolling motor, a Humminbird Ethernet switch a proper lure retriever and some more cranks. Total cost R28k, which was a real bargain as the same motor here, goes for R58k (even if I include the excess baggage and VAT paid) I still saved R32k on the troll motor alone!


Whoops, why can’t I just have the normal slip ups every now and then like most guys here, why is mine so huge and seemingly frequent?  :cnfzd

That might be, but I think its because (I for one) are a bit weary of posting in case somebody reports to the wife........

Had somebody returning to SA from the US of A and well, he brought through two suitcases of necessities.  :hnthnt:
