This video has a little bit of everything

April 14th 2008 00:28
The title says it all for me.

The vending machine at the beginning is interesting but not unheard of. A couple of years ago I was in the Poconos (it's not just for honeymooners!). I forget EXACTLY what little town it was, but there was a beat up vending machine on a corner selling minnows. For $2.50 you got a dozen in a plastic container!

The other thing I like about this clip is getting a chance to look at equipment that's used in other parts of the world. It shows that good equipment is universal. There's not an angler out there who doesn't recognize names like Shimano or Mustad.


Carp fishing isn't popular in the States so you don't hear a lot about bite indicators although I think the idea is fascinating! Personally, I think a GREAT application would be to camp along a river, throw out your line after it gets dark, curl up in your sleeping bag, and let the bite indicator take over!

Finally, even the exchange rate is mentioned!

Enjoy!




Until next time--watch yourself and watch your line!

Carp fishing or carp target practice? Tough choices James.

Raven,

You're bad! I've seen other video with bite alarms and I always thought it looked like some kind of front line defense.
