Double uni or the slim beauty for me too. Seems to work for all my bottom bashing and casting needs.
Originally I wasn't tying the "correct" slim beauty, but the kaneit version, which starts the same in the leader(with the figure 8) but has a uni at the braid end.

Nah man. It's fishing and bananas that don't mix!!!
Maybe the poor bugger had carrots and then ate a banana for dessert. Instant kiss of death

Cheers Dylz. I live at Lock, so I'm hoping to scoot over soon. Hopefully next week after the sea calms down a bit.
Probably should've tried for last night or this morning but my arse is welded to the boom spray at the moment!!!

Thanks Dylz. I was going to ask if there were any reports about the salmon comp, had seemed pretty quite

Great info there Tri. Cheers

I've got a Samaki drifter for my spin rod. Sounds like its similar in action to some of the others mentioned here. It's rated 3-6kg with a nice tip for bait fishing, and can handle bigger fish quite well. I find I don't use it all that much as I prefer overhead gear for whiting out in the boat. Cheers

Caught a puffer on one a couple of weekends ago. That was a new one for me.

Nice fish mate. Good fight on the light gear.

Great write up Des. I also got excited about the idea of whiting on poppers, but haven't bought any lures yet. It's enough fun catching them on light gear in skinny water anyway!

I reckon the boys have pointed you in the right direction. The sienna is a great cheaper priced reel. I had a 2500 for boat work, and it definitely preformed well. They quite often come on sale, and also in combo deals.

That looks the goods mate. Love eating squid!!

Should serve you well mate, and be a salmon slayer back down here. Good luck on the trip. Think most of us are a bit jealous!!

Had to run the brother in law down to the plane in Lincoln. I thought it would be a good chance to go squiding on the way home. After talking to the boys at spot on in Lincoln, they suggested Louth Bay would be better than North Shields. The wind was pretty strong when I got there, so I gave the jetty a miss and headed to the rocks that were a bit more sheltered. After an hour of casting, and five colour changes on the jigs, it was bang, bang, bang with three quick squidlys. The biggest one had a tube of 32cm, so not a bad size. As quick as they came on, it was back to nothing for half an hour. By this time it was 4:00 and high tide. I thought the wind had dropped a bit, so I tried the jetty. It was still windy enough on the jetty so I only stayed for bout 15 mins, but managed another squid.Nothing spectacular, but good fun for a couple hours, and proof that it's always worth going for a flick whenever the chance arises The wife wondered why I was so keen to go for a drive to the airport!!!

Don't mind the fish on the grey hoodie. Not sure how it would look on the black. Are the t's going to be double sided print ie: small text on the front, large on back?

I think they are sealed. Could be a poor mans Stella sw

I was only searching about these on the net last night. Should be a good landbased reel

Cheers mate. I saw a brand new old model dorado A-rounder sold on FeeBay a few weeks ago.
I think I like the old school coz it was all new and shiny when my tackle obsession first started, but I couldn't afford it all at the time!!!
