From The Silver Chrome Balancer From Temu to The Gomexus Golden King of Balancers! These spinning reel balancers are purely accessories. That means you can enjoy a great day of fishing without using these. It's an add on. But if you frequent rocky areas where you do need to place your rig down there may be a need for it as it'll help prevent your reel body from getting scratched (once that happen corrosion can now set-in). From changing rigs to unhooking your catch everyone's needs differ. I had placed an order with Gomexus in the USA for one but they asked me to wait & they'll send me a ..read more

Comes In a 3pc Box @ 5.7in Each & Weighs 1.2oz Each! I now have 15 box sets of these. Comes in 2 color sets. One for dirty water & the other for clear. Each set consist of 3 different colors. There's also a UL set as well at a smaller size & weight (also 3pcs). They're virtually identical to the original Whopper Ploppers. The only difference is the price.

Some of the best-selling fly reels are the models from the 1970-90s period. Hand-built in Alnwick by time-served craftsmen, each reel was tested prior to being offered for sale. Marquis, Lightweight, Princess and the larger St Aiden and St Andrew models are all in demand still today. Check out our current stock of these here. If asked “Are they collector or user reels?” then I suggest both. Some collectors of the range want mint boxed examples with papers while anglers buy good condition mechanically sound ones. An enviable range of line ratings from #1 to #10 suit most of our freshwater fl ..read more

This will not be news to many anglers, but after a recent curt put down by one angler I gave some gentle polite advice to, when he was striking ineffectually after a bite at range in a strong current, I thought it worth putting my thinking down here. For me (super) braid has transformed my fishing and success! Since the first time I used it over 25 years ago, and caught a porbeagle shark of nearly 260 lbs, I have used it for almost all my fishing shore, boat and river. I do not choose my braid by breaking strain but by diameter. Now I almost exclusively fish a big river with bottom baits I f ..read more
