Wayne's closed southern sportsfishing for the foreseeable future until the risk from sars cov2 is fine.
Hook up may be open on the weekend. Otherwise try to get a hold of Glenn or Casey (message the Facebook page).

Thank you all. Found Black Label v2 6102 2-4 kg $249 (lucky).
Look at the pair on the photo, the rod and Caldia LT 2500 with Jbraidx8 Grand 10lb. Now my life is complete :bn: :vy: :wt:
The handle grip is a bit 'bulky' but feels so good, a perfect grip.
When this covid is all over, I might write a report review after the first use.

you wont regret it.. you will just need to get used to it as its a very stiff rod compared to what you have been using id say.
but pretty much you will not need another lure combo for PPB

Yeah I noticed it's pretty fast/stiff. Hopefully we're allowed to go fishing soon and I get to try it.

Armadale Angling.
Kolliou didn't have 6102, they got the one piece though.
Armadale Angling website says they got the 703, I was gonna get that, but when I called, Trevor said he got one 6102, lucky me.

Yeah he's a nice guy. Bought few stuff from him in past. Great service. Somehow when I look for particular item, he always got it in store, or can get it for me real quick without any dramas.
