Just to say I emailed the MMO yesterday and recieved a reply, not that I was expecting one. The lady said that this boat wasn't doing anything wrong as such other than being selfish I guess. That said she did leave me a mobile number so that any incidents/issues anglers have then it cab be...

They probably make that in a week or less, no deterrent. Stop them fishing for a month or more.

He certainly wasn't targeting whelks last year down there in September when i saw he was unloading basket fulls of sole, plaice etc . I've seen him setting his nets in the past and I'm no commercial fisherman but I thought you used pots for whelks. This is what the boat was originally doing...

That's the boat.

Got to use my new reels last night and agree with everything you've said here. So much lighter, smoother and the casting was effortless (not that I'm a big caster) but minimal effort and the line just flies off the reel. You said in a previous post that I "won't be disappointed " and I'm...

They are "mangles" 🤣

I got them from Veals

Well I bit the bullet and got a pair of these. I guess the proof will be in the pudding when I get to use them. First thing I noticed though is how much lighter they are than my penn's. If they perform as well as they feel and look then should be money well spent in my eyes.

Some cracking fish there for both, nice one. 👍

Cheers for the heads up. Black Friday tomorrow so I'll have a look about though I have noticed that some reels in a few shops have gone up in the last 3 weeks ,no doubt to be reduced back to the previous price of 3 weeks ago thus saving bugger all.

No worries. If all the replies had been different reel options my brain would be fried but its just banter so I can deal with that 🤣

I only fish along the south coast so no rough ground or from heights so power aeros seems to be the choice from the replies, cheers.

So as the title suggests, I'm in the market for a pair of new reels. I've only ever used fixed spools so definitely sticking with them. I've used nearly all the daiwa range from my carp fishing days and of late the penn affinities both for carp and beach. I'm now looking at the shimano range...

Great write up and pics with a nice mix of species there. 👌

Happy birthday fella, 🥳

Cracking fish to round of a great session, nice one. 👍

I've seen a fair few comments of late on social media saying that purchases aren't being delivered or if they are it's always to somewhere in Glasgow . Definitely avoid from what I've seen.

Now that's a proper fully scaled, nice fish and a clonking eel. Nice one

That's an awesome session and as you say some superb eating, nice one 👍

Great report and some awesome photos there, nice one 👍
