After I caught a couple of very small bass (as large as my lure), I decided to fish the other side of the pond again.
To tell the truth, this nice bass bit my lure just when I started to retrieve it. I thought "a tiny fish again", but as soon as I set a hook, I noticed it was different. She was a very good fighter and I had a very hard time to catch her. I used a Phillipson 3M casting rod for the first time this fishing season, and all in all it is a super good rod for me.
Oops, water droplets were on the lens!
Today's tackle:
ABU Record Ambassadeur 5000, Phillipson 3M (F562), Stren 14lb (Clear Blue), Heddon Meadow Mouse, Lucky 13, Zara II, Chugger Spook, etc.
BF=5/11
Good day,Kazz San
ReplyDeleteLong time no see.
I believe you got a very good rod!
Though my fishing result is not still getting better during this season especially,
I guess I need to try harder to go out to fishing right now.

Kura-san,
DeleteThanks for your comments.
I custom-built the rod by myself using a Phillipson 3M blank. It is marked as lures THRU 5/8 oz, and literally very good for topwater lures in 1/2-3/4 oz. I had some more of the same blanks several years ago but had sold them. I should have kept a few more...
By the way, let's have a chance to go fishing together, shall we?
To all,
