In a recent conversation with Tommy in the LHD shop, he made the offer that if the Canoe Club members expressed enough interest in purchasing kayak fishing rods he would be happy to order up a batch of ten to sell on.
Kayak fishing rods are available in different sizes. The ones we discussed are marketed specifically for kayak fishing, being 4ft long and holding a standard fishing reel.
The LHD is a dealer for this particular brand and would be selling them at the retail price, (£19.99 at time of discussion) saving shipping costs for individual members. If anyone is interested in this, add a comment here or email me.
Cheers
Mark
The first outdoor training session of the year took place in Thursday this week with over 20 kayaks taking to the water on a fine spring evening in ideal conditions. Split into groups, the beginners got their first real taste of paddling after learning the basics in the Clickimin pool. A great time had by all, and only those who chose to went for a swim!
