It is winter time...
Fishing has been slow...
Normally I buy all my tackle line / hooks / etc in the off slow season.
So that when summer arives you do not have to run to the shops.
Before i make this trip I normally make a stock count of what I have and what is needed. (Normally this list gets left at home on the big day) So I have to go on memory. Now any new rod / reel on the market have an effect on my memory - what is on the list as well as what is in the bank account.
Now Athur at Fishing Specialist is a lovely man. He treads me with respect - my bank manager hates Athur.

So ja my name is Kingslide and I made a purchase an hour ago (it was not yet on the list)

I can't escape the TA even in winter.
Went to the Dbn Boat show last week, Did not see any tackle for sale but bought a book: "Artificial Lure Guide - Saltwater" knowing very well that it will probably outdated by Summer.

Hey PH, that's literature, not tackle! It doesn't count!

I ended up the tackle shop yesterday (some how my garmin ALWAYS takes me there) amd all I bought was a packet of 10 hooks - I really tried hard to buy another rod, but somehow couldn't - do you think I may be getting ill?
