Cigar Photo of the Month

I love the theme idea, gives us something to think about.

Theme idea is a good one

[Simon Bolivar]

Dmacleod28, B&W I can understand but are you really still using nylon?
I-d go for the theme idea as well, it would make judging easier for a start. I' d suggest starting with 'Christmas Smoke.' Can be Christmas past or taken this year.

For the soft focus?

This one obviously has to be festive themed

Dmacleod28, but are you really still using nylon?

are you saying you have given up on Monofilument completely Simon?

It's the king of abrasion resistance! It's also much less visible in the water and much much cheaper.

Theres also occasions where using Braid is out and out banned. Mono nylon is still very much a must have in every fishermans box.

Eh? What now?

[Simon Bolivar]

I very rarely use nylon any more Marc, only recent exception I can recall is using 30 lb 30' leaders on a Scottish Loch for the abrasion resistance you mentioned. The other use would be catching bait on my whip but I don't have any one via small reel like in the photo.I use 30lb braid when drifting & deadbaiting. 50lb for light ours & 80lb for heavy lures. Don't really do any other type of fishing these days about from pike fly fishing.

Braid I feel is generally banned on carp lakes , I've been fishing for nearly 40 years and its a shame that generally now the avant garde now is carp fishing I used to go trout fishing when I was barely in my teens free running worms in a stream about 8 inches deep and a couple of foot wide in loose village loved it simple angling loads of fun and nice fish. It's a pity the next generation can't do it angling is just a money making machine private lakes etc.......
