A good number of small Pike on the K&A this weekend. Not always like that on my local stretch, but very welcome on light gear.
One For The Scrapbook
Sorry, this is a bit of a ‘me me me’ post. But I was extremely delighted to discover that through a bizarre, but highly enjoyable chain of events I have somehow ended up on the back cover of the 2014 Breaden Japan catalogue (albeit very small). What a privilege!
New Marukyu Crab
There was an exciting new product launch at the Nantes tackle show – the fantastic looking Marukyu Crab.
Shimano Exsence Spool Fits Stella
In case it’s useful for someone, I thought I’d share a recent discovery that the Shimano Exsence spool fits the Stella. In this case it’s a 3000 Exsence spool on a 2500 Stella.
LRF in Saint-Nazaire
16th February 2014 was a day I’ll remember for a long time. After two enjoyable days at Salon des Peches en Mer in Nantes, getting acquainted with all the latest lure fishing tackle, we decided to have some fun fishing.
PB Brown Trout
Okay, it’s closed season, but this bycatch Brown Trout was very welcome after a drought (fish not rain!)
Reins Lures Label Guide
I found this on the excellent French Touch Fishing site and translated it to English. We now know what all those colourful labels mean on Reins lures. Thanks FTF! Will be using this in Nantes next month.
