It's my birthday what to get

#1 Post by Deise boy »

Wife giving me a few quid along with others to get some fishing gear in.

Now here's the dilemma

I have a good rod / reel / lures

As you all know it's never enough.
Any advice on that killer lure that costs €40 +
That reel that's €100

A hold all bag. ( which I don't have ) that costs more then €50.

See where I'm coming from.

I mightn't have €100 for a long time again
So what would you advise me to get.
Just to spoil myself. [SMILING FACE WITH OPEN MOUTH AND SMILING EYES]

Happy birthday tomorrow. Lol.

Used the minnows already
Yeah they certainly seem to get the attraction of the fish ok.
I find the 120 though is still a little heavy and use the 9g head instead.

Like that set up as well the sure catch and the 3000. Nice.
Was thinking of getting that lure which the shop owner only takes out once a year to clean it. ( never used ) and then put back in the iron sealed box Lol.
