    Shimano Sedona HD 2500 reel spooled with Shimano 6lb braid, really nice little reel for the money, the drag feels so nice on it. Hopefully spend more and more time getting it wet as the evenings slowly get longer

    Salmon are running now too? Get into it. Great fun.

    My little collection- just moved house so having a sort-out. I'm largely a Shimano bitch, for sea gear anyway.

    Most are on this rack



    Two 7' rods need their own space



    The 24kg popper gear is handy for trips- got good use in the Chathams

    Big ones go 65cm.

    Also really nice to have the firepower on hand when a big kingi comes in for a nosey.

    I’ve been itching for a Scott Radian for a while now.
    It’s finally mine

    I have a 5 weight Sage One on the shopping list too.
    Roll on being able to actually get out and try them.
