For that price it better not be anything less then a SAGE
Fly fishing gear seems quite expensive still. Guess can't compare to overseas market

MSG you later. Maybe have a quick look.

That's quite reasonable then. doesn't matter if it's a no name. Not like I'm chasing kingfish or Tuna. Lol.
Thanks for checking dude

Very light too. Or have a look at the Shimano Elf.
I've got it in a 1000 and 2500 size. Not too shabby. Exerts a decent amount of drag. Holds a decent amount of line. Fine for freshwater fishing. Drag is smooth and not sticky.

Did u catch anything?

OIC.
Yeah I'm still unsure about Exotic and it's catch rate. For the amount you're paying...hmmm maybe I'm just cheap haha

Was told about this $3 Barramundi pond. Anyone know the name?

Pretty sure treble is not allowed right? hehe
Apparently this barra pond is lures only. One of those catch must buy kinda place.

wuckas? you must have lived in OZ at some point in time lol

Where is it though?

Thanks wetwetwet

Damn is it me or does this look really far? Port Klang?

Added on October 29, 2012, 6:25 pmI use a Bob Sand's knot. And i've had instances where I tighten the knot and test the knot strength and the braid eats/slices the fluoro. I can see different little segments of fluro bits on my hands etc.
You might tie a proper knot but sometimes in a given situation your knot will fail. Maybe not enough lubrication etc.

A same knot I used caught me that 11kilo Jelawat at Exotic. Next outing (yeah lazy) the knot gave way to what possibly could be a pacu. Go figure...

Why u asking me? Lol

If u go general it's 1000 baht a rod. Add bait etc
U can get bungalows. Each diff price. One i got was 1500 baht.
Guide cost 1000 baht.
Can rent rods. Not sure if it was included as the gf is Thai and they sawadeka ka ka kap kap bla bla and I think I got a discount. Haha

Did u have a look at the Elf?

Buy a 1000. 10lbs braid u get about 120 yards

Actually should be asking what type
Of fishing youll be using the reel for first.
And ur budget of $300 including braid?

Quite an exxy freshwater reel.
U could also go a Daiwa for that price in the 2500
Daiwa has got a deeper spool and you could at least use it for some light jigging.

Stretch the budget. Can't go wrong with a stradic. Hehe

Whos fishing where and when?

Reckon it'll rain?
