Ja! a surprise when you get your statement! Ask me, I know.......


This last month internet purchases (all fishing related), Camera (se previous post) new fly rod and line, flats wading boots, river wading boots, waders, flytying materials - all related to last months internet purchases of flights to Patagonia and Venezuela, accommodation, guide services, boat hire, salt water wading pants and shirts, flytying materials........and I am sure more to come before I am properly organised to fish for Argentinian trout and Venezuelan bonefish in December

Got hit by an urge yesterday.  Went with a buddy to BMto help him select a lure or two.  I left with a packet of lures, a class 7.5ft rod, a TV symetre 3000 reel and braid.  I have one already but felt that my boat needed a matching o one. That is besides a range of other rods.  I ad met I am sick.  Especially after the wife found the tull slip

"Okuma really stepped up and is now producing top quality gear." John F



I'm gobsmacked at the quality of my 2 Cedros 10 LD reels... craftsmanship is fantastic, solid feel... and one has been tested and found to be smooth as a baby's bum. Both came in at under R2k a piece.


Please could you tell me where you bought these reels .

My 2 10LDs came from Big Catch in CT... Ordered online and had terrific service from them. Granted, it was just before the Rand went into free fall. They were listed slightly cheaper at Gani's as well but at the time they were out of stock and I wasn't sure what price the new stock would come in at.
