    Family getaway - Bullshoek Dam

    So last weekend we went on a camping trip to Bullshoek dam resort, just past Clanwilliam. We get there around 3pm to find a empty campsite. Cool I think, we can setup and get our pick of sites.

    Student

    Torium 14 & Penn Sargus 4000

    I was unlucky enough to have some of my reels nicked. Torium 14 and Penn Sargus 4000 are some of the missing items. Both reels are pretty much spotless. Should your paths cross I'd appreciate a direct message.
