Fishing Gear
The last time I went fishing I discovered that I needed to revisit my setup. I had bought a new 12′ rod (Snyder Glas MT144 8W 55 – 115 g) and the reel that I used was a bit undersized. So I have just bought a new reel off ebay for it – Daiwa Emcast Plus 5500, also got some Power Pro 30lb 500yd Braid.
Details here more for a reference to me rather than to tell the world what I have – makes shopping a bit easier.
