My new toy

[Feral]

I got myself a new toy from Ebay. Cost me $18.

A nice little 3000 series spinning reel. Feels very smooth, very solid in hand, quit light weight. Will be matching it with a 150m spool of 20lb Spiderwire stealth Ray sourced from the states for $13 before christmas. This on my Loomis 8kg rod will be my rig for the Lenthalls trip next month!
