Being greedy on the mags!-Reel Cam

Postby StevieR » Sat May 21, 2011 6:08 pm

Was blowing a gale today so headed down the beach to see how far I could push it with mag starting position. Just overdone it this cast. The reel takes a big slow down about 50m in. Still. Went a reasonable distance.

Id be more worried about the transition from one line to another,
they look like diff densities? Mag seems ok, I've a few that run hairier and still get away. What dia line were you on??

Just a wee Sony digital camera, the type you take on holiday. Strapped on with a lot of brown parcel tape!
