new rods, snow and a pb!!
Submitted by Roger Knife on Wed, 2010-01-06 20:55
Hello again fellas
Just a quick update again. Blanked again on sunday and fractured the carbon in my rod in the cold...i think thats what did it anyway!! Good news though they replaced it with a brand new one in the shop. An awa shima in 2.4m model with an extension to make it 2.7m...happy days.
Snow has arrived in abundance and although I got the day off work, its no good for fishing which is not ideal
And as promised a picture of my pb whiting i caught over christmas, its not a monster but at 2lb 11oz its pretty big for round here. Take care lads.
Rog
