Halo Fritz, ek gaan margate toe vir 'n week en daarna gaan ek Winkelspruit toe vir 'n week. Ek dink die dinge gaan moeilik vakansie tyd by die peer wees, ek hou nogals van Lee Rock daar.

eugene , do you think the /7 wont be too stiff , or should be better suited for the type of angling we gona do down here, i felt a few /7 t24's today and they were mmmmmhh well stiffish for grinders , but rob says ill have no proble punching a bait out cause of my height and built and that im used to the pentagon heavy, oh well too late to change now at least i know if push comes to shove i can taken 100kg plus BRONZIES WITH GRINDER OHHHHHHHHH I CANT WAIT NOW!!!!!

Cuz, have you had a look in the mirror lately? lol, dont stress, i think you will do justice to a /7. Only reason im going with a /6 is that im shorter and dont have the hieght advantage...however, even though with the rod shortened slightly, im going to maximise it fully. Lol, hell, those 100kg+ bronzies are going to box hard with you on the braid :) But hey, ill be right next to you ;) *WINK WINK*

yesterday we confirmed /7 today Wally WAtt advised otherwise , he says its too stiff for a grinder and he has caught big fish in major comps with his /6 t flex and has no problems throwing a big bait ,NOW what ? i mean this man is a legend in his own and has been fishing while i was still fluid , what to do , gona chat with rob again tomorrow and decide lucky he did not start cutting the / 7 blank shoo but still not decided on the blank but t flex it is !
