Catching up (part 2)

I've also missed blogging quite a few freshwater trips. For the most part, it has been business as usual - lots of small perch and the odd pike on the canal.

I've bought a new rod and reel - a HTO Rockfish Rover, and a Spro Addiction 1000 to go with it. I am really impressed with both, so light and responsive. The solid tip on the rod is so sensitive, I am noticing a lot more taps and bites that I don't think would have registered on my other rod.

I've taken it to a few local landmarks, but nothing species to report really, just lots of small perch and whiting..
