After match fishing from being about 9 to 15 for barnsley juniors with good success over the years with individual wins and team wins in regional and national events i stopped fishing and at now at 26 i have just started to look at picking up my tackle again as i had a week on holiday and took some old tackle as there were lakes on site so thought it would be rude not to!.
Well 2 days half a dozen or more carp and a bagful of roach rudd skimmers perch and a couple of pike foul hooked and landed later and im now looking at getting back into fishing just for the pleasure of it!
So my name may well be popping up around here a bit, probably with some questions as my god technology has moved on in the last 10 years especially in poles! will be getting myself a full set of new kit apart from probably keeping my old faithful superultegra feeder rod as i still think its among the best out there!(maybe im wrong)
So what do i need to be looking at these days? Looking at a sensas Power match 114 pole, any views? and looking at 'ultimate' brand box systems on ebay, again anyone got them?
If theres anything i have missed over the last 10 years then please fill me in, i popped along to the ponds at old denaby tonight and had a quick chat with a couple of chaps and the bailif and think i will be venturing down there pretty soon with the old tackle until i can afford to buy new.
did see that hair rigs no longer require dried pasta to keep bait on with new fangled plastic bits that go onto the hair loop!
Anyway, hi all
