Hi all. Would it work to add a long, light leader to the heavy gear the family has for fishing off wharves to fish for trout? Cheers |

Yeah , maybe , if you can find somewhere to fish for trout off a wharfe
At a pinch why not . Probly better to stick with some sort of bait rather than trying to cast a lure , flinging heavy gear around gets tiresome real quick specially for kids . Being as how heavy gear isnt going to be supple enough for trout you will be relying on your drag so with that in mind I would give it a good clean out . Good luck ------------- I wish I was young again .... Id be heaps smarter than this time |
