B'Day Pressies

Got Birthday pressies tonight...

A Shimano Spheros 6000FA spooled with 30lb Cajun Braid. (Watch out metro offshore tailor)

A diamond steel to keep my filleting knives sharp.

A new Rapala electronic scale 25kg (The boga grips scales are stuffed now)

and a book on the life of David Beckham (believe it or not he used to play for spurs.)

Plus an assortment of other goodies.

Not a bad haul for an old coot.

Just need some thoughts on what rod to match it to if I want to cast poppers and small metal lures at metro offshore tailor.

C'mon you tackle junkies give me some ideas.

Happy Birthday Andy. Hope you had a good day. You got some good pressies there.

Going to have to show the missus your list as I had mine a couple of days ago and got bugger all in comparison. Very Jealous.

Happy bday dude! Check out the new rapala braid concept spin sticks, inpressed me on a couple of denmark salmon. But you cant go past the 7'6 nitros or t-curve spin 7'6s they are awsome in my point of view. Great for chucking poppers and slices out of the boat, check em out.

Keep it tight, reeeeeeel tight!

i would recommend a Shimano King mack spin...7ft 8-12kg!! perfect for chucking poppers up north
or there is the shimano bluewater 702 spin another good popper rod

prob be a bit short for the beach..but u still could cast 40-60gm metals off the beach for tailor n salmon
