SPJ set up for wrecking.


Recommended Posts

I think one of biggest mistakes people make is fishing to heavy braid, which then needs heavy lures to stay in contact with the lure. Going to heavy increases the fall speed and action, rather than a slow fall flutter it then becomes more of a high speed jig. The reason I knew I would be able to out-fish those people on the boat last week was simply because of the line class they were using.

from reading this  ( above ) i should by a new spinning rod. not my boat road.?????

No not necessarily Pete. You will be just fine wrecking with your rods and the set up of booms and weights etc we advised. 
What you read above is a complete different set up for a different way of fishing.

I’m confident that you could out fish those fuckers with a stick of rhubarb. 

I’m sure I couldn’t come close to your pout catching skills or skill of pouring hot water over noodles. To do it all in wearing your new slider’s is something us mortals can only dream of.

Anyone bought a Penn slammer IV DX ? meant to have a look at one today but the 1.30 min trip to town was longer than normal with roads washed away and deep puddles everywhere!!!!...did'nt get to the tackle store before running out of time🙃 Not that Im saying this would be the perfect spj reel but they look pretty robust enough to do a bit of everything.

Oops meant 1hr 30!!!!....could only swim it that quick in one direction!!!!!

Its still pouring down, bring back the fires. Moved here for the dry hot weather, not to keep thinking Im back in the UK. Shouldn't complain, at least I can now fish from my balcony.

Ive ordered a gomexus 50, some silk ocean pe1.5 line. I'm going to use it on my Zziplex 6-12lb rod. 
If I get on then I may well purchase a specific SPJ rod later. 

I just bought some of that Silk Ocean in PE2 - good PE to breaking strain - interesting to see how it holds up

Looking at that gob, that looks a lot like a Dogtooth Tuna. One of the planets best and dirtiest fighters, once hooked they go straight down and you just cant stop the run. We only ever got to boat about 25% of the ones we hooked.

Nice fishing and cracking pics.
