Guys just got confirmation from Mag Man , wh
- Thread starter Simen
- Start date
Wow - it might be worth while including and old timers kit show at the Leeuwkop social on the 24th.
It would be nice to compare some Penn 49's, jigmasters, surfmaster and maybe an Ambasador 10000 or two.
I haven't used my 49 for a long time as I am scared that the bakelite spool would give in. (Also it was my Dad's - so a lot of sentiment)
You know what it's like - that once a year big one that really winds the line up tight.
:spite
I'll back you up when you fish your 49 - it still is a great reel.

Ai Karamba! I hope Mag-man was able to find an alternative airline!? For those of you who don't know... Nationwide went belly-up this morning and cancelled all domestic flights, not sure about International?

Eish!! Saw the article on news24. Not good. Anyone able to give directions to Blaawpan? Comming from Cresta side on the N1 north.[color="#006600"]mag-man[/color] wrote:Nationwide?!?!
Directions on the R24 ..,. From East gate .
Proceed on R24 past the Airport on to the R21 heading toward Pretoria ,
Take the Atlas rd Off ramp .
@ 1st Robot turn left .
At t-junction turn right .
Next robot right – (Auto Pedigree on your right .)
Take the 1st left turn & keep immediately left .
Proceed straight down that road – as u see the bend of the road .
Keep left , u will have to go onto the Dirt Road & then get to the entrance .
We will be the first crowd immediately on the left as you go into the dam. Just remember guys that after the reed section, the whole dam is reserved for the papgooiers... so don't go casting next to some okes Carp rod..., he might get upset with you.

I drove around for 1.5 hours looking for Blaawpan, couldn't find it! Where is the T-junction after turning left onto Atlas rd? I couldn't find any T-junction from Atlas rd to Kempton Park! Eventually gave up after 1.5 hours and 1/4 tank of petrol.

Howzit guys, lakka to be back. Bit of a pity I couldn't spend more time with each person, especially the girls who I needed to spend more time with, ideally you want one on one tuition, but it was still great to meet you guys and spend the day with you guys.
I hope I showed you guys a few tips, or taught you guys a few trick's. Remember more rotation equals more lead speed, and longer leader equals less speed.
