Fishing With A Rod I Found In The River

Title pretty much says it all for this one. Went on a trip with Aaron and pulled a combo out of the river. Went back the next week solo and spent an afternoon fishing that combo. Definitely wasn't the nicest to use after spending some time at the bottom of the river (and being right hand wind) but i...

Re: $100 worth of trout lures

I haven't actually used the berkley range. They all look like they should work pretty well though, they are based on some pretty successful lures. For what you're looking at I would skip the slurp and go with the bender and the jerk if you do want to get them. Colour is a pretty preferential thing, ...

Re: $100 worth of trout lures

Just stick with 6lb leader, dropping to 4 in lakes won't really change anything. Not knowing what you already have a basic kit for trout and redfin in lakes would be something like.

The session that had it all

Hey guys,

Went on another trip with smokin reels to the same water we fished last time. The fishing action was hot but it was everything else that happened that made this a memorable trip.

Hope you enjoy the vid

Nice work. It always amazes me how well squid pull once they get over 40, completely different to the smaller models.

Cod Fishing with Smokin Reels

Hey guys, just put up a video from a session with smokin reels earlier in the year. One of the most enjoyable days I've had on the water in the long time with plenty of action to keep us fishing. https://youtu.be/7Dq6wsPCWms Slowly catching up on the edits but still have a fair bit of content from t...

Re: Clifton Springs Calamari - 11/05/2023

I know you're with Yama Andrews but for options in sink rates keystone jigs are the best I've found. Most (if not all) of their jigs come in a range of sink rates and the sink rates are consistent across the different sizes

Re: What is the most important thing you'd spend $$$ on?

I think budget and style of fishing really determines priority. For sounders I have a helix 9 that I regularly use on my kayak but for small water cod fishing in summer I leave it off as it just gets in the way and provides no real value in this situation. That same sounder becomes an extremely valu...
