i was back in singapore, as u guys know, singapore doesnt have must wild fishing like u guys had around your surrounding water, so we usually goes to pay pond to cure the itchs.
this is one of the upcoming pond with concept of CnR and they have big fishes in them. Gt fishing is thru out the year and it promise fishes on most of ur cast. It just a matter of big or bigger.

thanks
yup u can say that again, extreme fun we are seeking. becos there is a min requirement for the pond 15lbs braided and 40lbs leader, as they want to protect the fishes when they are caught and release asap.
i am coming over to WA soon, if u guys want to test out the rods and dont mind a deckie to join u on ur fishing trip, let me know. Dont let me rot at home during the raining season.
here are 2 video of the session, sorry about the language used if you dont understand, but what most impt is the fishes we caught

all video is uncut
hi JIM1
all video we film are uncut.
after my last trip to WA, i learn a new way to test the rods.
lock full drag, thumb the spool and bend fully the rod to test it.
u can actually purchase 1 rod from me to test it out. to test is to believe.
i am already in perth now, and hoping to get onto any charters or any buddy want to fish together pls let me know
i dont mind show and sharing what the rod can do and what it cant.
u judge it limits not me.
i hope this trip to perth i can take more video to proof this rod

looks the goods mate, how do
looks the goods mate, how do they cast? looks like a perfect rod for pond fishing, a 2-4kg rod still feels like a twig in my hands and still building trust and learning to capabilities of lighter gear. are these still in the prototype stage?
