Re: Ending the Season with a bang.

Nice work dougie. Long tails are super fun. The certate SW is an awesome reel. 👌 I've just returned from a trip to Hawaii, I seen something there that may have made you a bit weak at the knees. Casting my not so manly gear from the place called the wall, I hooked into a barracuda about 70 odd cms lo...
