    Day Out First trip out in a while + deer rutting

    Yeah real intense - wasn’t the fact it was happening it was the location we picked, will happily camp just won’t return to that spot during the rut - it’s by the stream the deer love to drink/gather at and directly below an area where we know there’s another herd so wasn’t very wise on our part...

    Getting into Fishing

    Thanks so much Ben - I really appreciate this and it sounds like you had fantastic luck finding that bloke, seems a great time was had by all! I really missed an opportunity as my old neighbour when I was 13-16 was an avid fisherman and offered numerous times to take me, but all I cared about...

    I rate it quite a bit I must say - not had any complaints with mine. You can cut out the labels and tell everyone it’s an unknown up and coming brand... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
