Why I love spinning
« on: August 12, 2014, 07:45:42 PM »
Just me, and me alone, with my spinning kit, ORI tagging kit and a bottle of water on a deserted beach between St Lucia and Cape Vidal today. Not another soul around me. This is why I love spinning.

Was very quiet! Just a couple of young shad on spoon and plug.

Covered about 10 km of coast in 5 hours of spinning, so my body feels it tonight! Lol!

This picture just wants me ( no, it  begs me )  to go on a fishing trip right now - and even if there's no fish  , it will still be GREAT all the same  !!!

Pity Aquafan stays in Durbs, would have begged for a place in the boot to tag along........ :envy  Steenie and even if the fishing is great and the catching totally absent, it is always just great to even get to just try and land something with fins.

Yes it is working the lures and the anticipation with every cast that got me hooked to spinning. And the mobility, I mean how else can you explore 10 km of coastline and put in 5 hours of solid fishing at the same time. But it will be great to carch a couple of good fish soon! I have been trying so damn hard the last couple of months!

Nice Steenie! Love that strip of water from St Lucia to mission rocks! I have to say the fish have been making us work hard but agree that some times it has nothong to do with hooking a thing.
