Well on Wed me and Nick Hart headed out for a long over due session on a local venue where we bantered on about all sorts of crazy ventures for this season!
I supplied the gear for the session as most of you know Nicks a Fly angler and we wanted a change, check out this beast of a log Nick managed to land! gotta be 2011 biggest catch lol! hardly fitted in my huge net. conditions were not the best but we got lots of chat sorted for the next coming season etc. Please take the time to flick across to Nicks site which can be found in my Links section, he has a full write up of the day and lots of other interesting stuff from the wonderfull world of flyfishing :-)

ReplyDeleteThe Alpax fills the 100quid reel bracket perfect..... theres a fair few reels in this prices range and in my opinion its up there with the big boys. iv had mine for nearly a year now and origanally got it for salt water use over in Ireland where it got dropped on rocks, dunked in salt water and did 300 plus Pollack all of which steamed line off the reel! apart from a quick clean its working a dream, got a few scars and scratches but works well! i would deffo recommend one. obviously its not as smooth as a shimano stradic or twin power etc but for the money you cant go wrong specially if its salt water your fishing
Danny
