This is the second part of the Tackle Choice Matrix and we will have a look at how the same reels of the same brands shape up against each other. Then we will compare the best two reels of each brand with one another to see who has the best reel. Do not skip to … Continue reading TCM – Brand vs Brand
What fishing reel is the best? It's a easy question that unfortunately doesn't have a simple answer. I can already hear the Shimano fans shouting STELLA! Daiwa fans yelling SALTIGA! and the Penn men screaming TORQUE! Although you have to admit that if anyone is going to do any screaming, it would have to be … Continue reading Tackle Choice Matrix (TCM)
Sê ek mos toe ek op 'n vlam warm dag 'n slukkie ys koue bier vat: "sjoe dis lekker, MA SE HARE!" Sal die een aangetroude vroumensie nie omtrent haar kop af ruk soos sy haar bose "judgmental" oë in my rigting slinger nie. Syt my een van DAAI kyke gegee, soos wat jy sal … Continue reading Ma se hare
My dad, my uncle and a friend were off at 4:30 towards Struisbaai! The excitement was immense. A couple of weeks ago I was lucky enough to get stuck into a proper Steamtrain and since my companions wanted one as well I was selected as the designated guide for the day. On our way we … Continue reading a perfect day

I've been struggling to catch anything decent and its not because of a lack of trying, it just seems that I'm on a bit of a dry spell. In September we started … Continue reading Diamonds and laughs
Ek weet nie of ek moet lag of huil nie... Daars 'n priester (prophet Lethebo Rabalago) wat mense van sy gemeente (AK Spiritual Christian Church) met Doom spuit om "evil spirits" uit te dryf. Nie toilet spray of Windowlene of Mr Min nie, fkn DOOM pappa! Blykbaar spuit hy sommer vir alle kwale van voetskimmel tot stres … Continue reading Doom Profeet
Ons het besluit ons moet 'n slag gaan kyk wat swem in Misverstand dam. Na 'n bietjie navorsing en rondvrae het ons twee regte pap swaai visse in gedagte gehad. Karp en Baber sou daar gevang word. Al was dit middel Augustus en nog vrek koud in die aande het ons besluit om te kamp. … Continue reading Misverstand op Misverstand

Next to us surfaced the biggest Kob both of us had ever seen. Of course in magazines and on social media we have seen bigger, but never before have we had one on a rod and reel this close to us (the one I lost last year was bigger but he never came this close). … Continue reading Releasing the dream
