ugly stik 4 8kg platinum rod Elite Salmon/Steelhead Casting Fishing : Sports & Outdoors crisp actions Buy Ugly Stik Platinum Spinning

So light it is hard to believe it has a metal frame

There are few options on the market and Black Magic sent me down quite a few packets which I handed out to Ben Donegan to review and various other skippers going on a recent multi-boat fishing trip to Eden and Mallacoota (you can read the full story about the trip in this issue)

I did not receive much input and thought you'd rather I used my time for something else, but then days before the 2017 show requests started coming asking me to do it

This fish is known to put up a good fight and will keep you reeling until the end

Make sure to tie the backing loop large enough so that you can comfortably pass either the entire fly reel or the still-coiled fly line through it
