That's a superb article Gareth - and simply wonderful photography throughout.
Only recently heard about the Danielsson Midge reel... what a peach!
I've gotta get my ass over to South Wales and hook up with you this season.
Nice going.

Thanks Andy, really glad you liked it! Just put the finishing touches on it now I've had all the thumbs up I need...then it's off to a few magazines :)Quote:

You're welcome down my neck of the woods anytime Andy. Plenty of water to fish, and plenty of willing trout living there too :D

Afraid not Gareth - it's a 6 1/2ft 3 weight (The Last Viking) that came in last year via Germany, supplied with a spare tip for €80... medium fast action and a discrete matt finish.Quote:

I'm pretty sure I'll pick up a 6' three weight GRXi+ some time this year though. Have looked long and hard at the Hardy 5' Aln, but it's too soft for my style and tastes... but it is lovely.
Catch you soon.

Don't know how I missed this earlier, good work Gareth, hope to see it on glossy paper soon. :clap:
