    I caught a 34cm bream tonight but i couldn't take a photo, does that mean I'm not able to be on the leaderboard?

    Sounds good, as I said only really going to target bream, flathead, whiting etc on this rod so I wouldn't go over 3000. Thanks for everyone's feedback, ideas and support. Tight Line, Peter. PS. I was just using my 2nd custom rod which is identical only that it is black and silver coloured. ---- I managed to catch 4 bream in 1 hour on a risky critter, (29,30,31,34cm). I'm pretty stoked, sorry don't have any photos.

    Hi Ellicat, I'll be targetting the bread and butter with this rod so I don't think i'd need more than 200-300 metres of line, this would still be overkill i feel, no? do you think perhaps otherwise? all advice is much appreciated.
  17. Peter K
    Dont you think 4000 is too big for a 2-6lb rod? I only really fish estuary rivers.
  18. Peter K
    Thanks mate

    Cheers Everyone, I'll get it some epoxy resin on it in the next week or so then it should be good to go, I need to buy the reel too though!
  21. Peter K
    Thanks mate. I don't how I feel about it. Do you think it gives Aussie or Jamaican vibes (colours)?

  23. Peter K
    G'day Everybody. I recently decided to attempt to create my 4th custom rod. It was deeply inspired by the Daiwa Kix 23. (Black, Olive Green, Silver, Gold). It is a Samurai Premium Rod blank, 2-6lb, Medium Fast, 7'0. All was done using Fuji reel seats and collars, guides etc. Below are some photos: I'm very proud of myself, I have gotten quite fast at it now, I did the design above the reel seat in about 2-3 hours. I completed all the guides and the tip in just over 3 hours. I planned to have done a full covering for the design on the bottom but I ran out of green thread. All the guides have had epoxy applied, (2 coats, very clear, no bubbles and very smooth and shiny). I will need to epoxy the reel seat design at some point otherwise, I am very happy with the outcome. Please let me know if you would recommend the Daiwa Kix 23, in sizes 1000, 2000, 2500 or 3000? Thanks for all feedback in advance. Kind Regards, Peter K

    alright, only asking because i got $50 dollar credit for a cheapy online store, they have UV torchs so I thought I might try it. Anyway, thanks Mjack for the advice! Cheers, Peter.

    Hi all, I'm looking to purchase a UV torch to charge up my lumo beads. etc. Will looking online it commonly comes up with 365nm and 395nm. Which one is better for fishing purposes, to charge up lumo beads and other lumo things. If you have other suggestions I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks for everyones assistance. Kind Regards, Peter

  27. Peter K
    Okay! I've got a Daiwa Tierra 3000 size laying around, spooled with 8lb and have got 10lb fluro for leaders, sounds like a plan! Any suggestions on a failproof lure/s to start off with. I've got loads of soft plastics, I'm only just starting my collection of hard bodies, perhaps a bait that aust bass like. Thanks for your help. Peter.
  28. Peter K
    Thanks, would it be suitable for aust bass, I'm interested it giving it a go in some small creeks, its a spin outfit and quite flexible so I'm not sure what is needed for that style of fishing, any thoughts? Much appreciated. Peter
