Spinning Reel Without Rod

Post by sarsi » Thu Sep 18, 2014 3:57 pm

After work, I drove to my fishing spot intending to cast soft plastics while waiting for my wifey who was coming by train. When I arrived, I realised that I left my fishing rod at home and only had my tackle box. Not to be denied, I took an old broken reel with some line on it and tried my luck with my improvised hand line... I got some puzzled looks from other fishos but not for long...

Nice work looks like you want go hungry on a deserted island
