    1. Hello Bernie and thanks!

      I agree they are not that common and do sometimes take a bit of detective work (google maps) to find. Bit more easier to find something similar in rural areas too.

      Mitchell 300 you say?

      I used to use my fathers as a child and they are a joy to use, fantastic reels. He used to have two, unfortunately one night we left them under the car to have a sleep and drove over the rods and reels in the morning, terrible noise to hear as the car rolled over all the tackle..

      There must surely be a few overgrown and forgotten pools round your neck of the woods, I would have thought, try using Bing maps or google maps and having a look about, you can turn up some interesting forgotten bits of water using both those as tools.

      Kind regards
      Mark
