Ian Golds match (fixed spool)

At the suggestion of various members and given the magazines will run a mile from criticising a piece of kit, here is your chance to tell us what you really think about a rod, reel, line, lure... keep it legal please!

Ian Golds match (fixed spool)

#1 Post by yorkshire man »

Took the new rod out Sunday for a bash feels really nice the tip was showing crabs on the bait so recon it should be quite sensitive casts really well. I found it a bit noisy on the first few casts but i think that was just the varnish settling in round the reel seat will let every one know how it handels a fish when i catch one
Cheers mike
