    David_C got a reaction from southie THE BANGA in What fishing gear do you purchase?   
    With rods, I generally stay with the bigger brands and don't spend more than $100.
    With reels, I also  stick with brands - particularly in the bigger models that have a bait runner function.
    With the smaller ones, I also stick with a brand but try to get them as cheap as possible. I used to get them from the states but with the dollar the way it is, not worth it anymore. Given this, I normally wait for the big sales (such as complete angler) and when they have them running out (normally between $20 and $30), I'll buy a dozen of them. Yes, they might only last a few seasons before dying but them throw it out and open another box  Chasing smaller fish, it doesn't matter that they have limited ball bearings and also doesn't matter if the little one breaks it!
    BUT in relation to terminal tackle, I generally go for the better branded hooks (diachi and black magic), swivels (black magic) and fishing line (maxima). I tried some of the cheapie tackle and have been let down a few times when a bigger fish takes it, so don't take the risk anymore. I also generally don't reuse my terminal tackle, so again, buy them in bulk when on sale
    Fishing can be as cheap or as expensive as the wife allows....🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

    David_C reacted to kelp in recipe for preserving salmon   
    I clean  an scale the salmon then cut it in to cutlets with all bones intact except I cut off the dorsal fin  ,then  place the cutlets into a pressure  cooker then add at least 1 to 11/2 cups of salt water I use sea water when I can, if not add 1 table spoons of salt or make it to your own liking then pressure cook for 1 hour when it finishes cooking allow to cool then strain the salmon an pack into clean preserving jars, top each jar with good quality olive oil  then sterilize in a water bath for 30 minutes seal the lids an allow to cool, it should keep for a year or more, it is delicious on toast, biscuits. toasted pitta bread it is well worth the effort to make all my friend rave about it, hope you go can  to the effort enjoy look forward to your comments

    Well done mate! You guessed the right amount of sinkers 👍🏻
     
    That was a bloody fantastic comp, a massive thank you to David from Savage Tackle!
    Everyone get the Savage Tackle name burned in your mind, when you are after sinkers, downrigger bombs and berley pots Savage Tackle is your go to brand. Find them at all of your local tackle stores, if you can't find them ask the owners to get them in 😉
    Savage Tackle can be found on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/Savage-Tackle-1255136391255153/ or yell out for David in the forum as he's around here a fair bit.
    Again congratulation goes to vogon for guessing the winning amount of sinkers!!!!!
    @vogon can you please send me a pm with your details so I can post out the $50.00 voucher.

    Thank you everyone who took part in the comp
