Nice fish Mark. Great when the pin goes. If you want a good one for barbel & carp, look out for an Okuma Aventa I think it's called, ( the bronze one). Got 2, brilliant reels.

New rod looks amazing too. I love my 1.2lb tfg classic rod great action. Don’t always need heavy rods. One question though I looked at the black rock rod did you happen to know it’s line rating and did you go any lower on line strengths with the lighter test curve?

nice one mark smashing fish hard fighting ,so your new rod and reel did the job they were meant to do so that,s a result i fish a lot with a centrepin reel on rivers on a stick to catch dace roach and chub with a few surprises coming out like ruff and gudgion ,, its nice when you buy some gear and it works ,lovely bit of river mark and some big fish ,,, i stick with the pin ,or is that pin with a stick.... any way mark nice fish good video crabtree fishing new tackle it does not get better than that ,until your next adventure down by the waters edge tight lines,,

It put a good bend in the rod and a feisty scrap. I love using pins but this season must admit I had been on the fixed spool reel a fair amount. I did want to get some more trotting in before the end of the season but we shall have to see.

Proper tackle, can’t be doing with giant bait runners and carp rods. Some are using 2.75 rods for barbel these days.

@markerd5378

Жыл бұрын

This I couldn't agree with more, 2.75 rods on small rivers is over gunning and like taking a chainsaw to cut a nicely cooked steak with.

Very robust reels does it have a check and spool brake I believe they were previously made by Grice and Young

just a check no spool brake that i know of on this one mate. Robust is exactly what i thought when i purchased it. A bargain for £12.50
