7/10s try and avoid supporting the lure manufacturer on the top right of your pic. I believe its Triton correct?

This clown merely copies all of the existing lure manufactures once they have put all the hard yards and finance into developing them

Noted, thanks HP, was not aware... It is indeed from triton and will avoid in future.

Found a Daiwa Sealine 50 hv "lost" in my boat shed... perfect to complete my 20-30 lb arsenal of 5 rods/reels.

Had a friend going to Nelspruit (with my sister in law + my missus). Long story short....He came back with a Jarvis Walker 12-15 kg rod (601215 blank)... he tells me it was like being in a CIA sting operation!!!!

Gotta love TA!!!! No risk, no reward!

2 x GT Mania Poppers
1 x Amano 150
1 x Cubera 125


1 x wahoo special to be pulled behind the boat on the way to deep reefs...


Hopefully some of the big GT's can thin out my popper collection the next 7 days so I can find a few more... :rotfl

Ummmmm.....OOOOOPSSSS :blush:


they are really good rods, we have a couple as well; on which the reel seat came loose. The reel seat had some cardboard between it and the blank and they came loose. It was easy to fix with some epoxy though
when I die, may my wife not sell my fishing tackle for what I told her I paid for it... and I have bought more, a severe case of TA

Ok I have had my relapse. Feel much better now.


Shimano Clarus 6'6" spinning rod
Shimano Symetre 2500FL
15 Lb Braid plus a whole pile of crankbaits and topwater lures


This is Ryan's new setup to match dad's for estuary spinning and our visits to the bass dams. Maybe this will stop him grabbing my rod everytime.... :hnthnt:

Could'nt resist to take these of a fellow fisherman. Now to get two rods to pair them with. What you be the best to go with? I was thinking in the line of shimano beastmaster MH or the shimano tallus MH?
