Decided to do a bit of fishing today just to try out my new Patchinko after hearing how good it is (from Henry Gilbeys web site), it's fragging AWESOME!!!!
I thought I was going to lose it on the other side of the river, I had to kill the cast a few times as the plug was heading over the river towards the branches on the river bank.
Normal when I fish there using poppers etc I only get 90% of the way accros the river, the Patchino will go clear over + another 15 feet !!!
How does it walk? well my wife is a dog trainer and even she couldn't improve how it behaves :-D
Responds really well to even a gentle twitch, even casting into the wind was impressive.
Only problem was ... it's too fish like, Gulls were dive bombing it, the faster I reeled in the more they liked it :shock:
I really didn't want my first fishing report on here to be 3 Gulls and a branch of a tree from the other side of the river so I decided I have practiced enough with it and packed up, can't wait till the water warms up a bit.
