New purchase

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!

New purchase

#1 Post by Rhonin »

Hi folks.

Only new to the forum so hope this is in the right section.
I just ordered a Mike Ladle 11' 2pce Surespin rod and a Shimano Technium 5000FB reel from Veals.
I'm hoping they will arrive before the weekend so I can try them. Will let you know how it goes.

How do you find using them? They seem to have got good reviews and were just within my budget.
