Hi all, new here. I live in Cornwall in the south west of the UK. I have fished all my life for Atlantic salmon, brown trout and sea trout (sea run browns) in our rivers, and a wide variety of saltwater species from European bass to blue and porbeagle sharks and in recent years bluefin.
I found this site as I just bought a Penn international 30tw which was in serious need of TLC.
Great site - I've learnt loads already!

The first rule of fishing is to fish where the fish are. The second rule of fishing is to never forget the first rule.

Forget about all the reasons why something may not work. You only need to find one good reason why it will.

Welcome. I visited your area on my honeymoon with my first wife in the early 80's. Loved Mousehole as well as all of the other small towns.  Used Exeter as a base for my travels as I had rented a car. First time driving in England on the other side of the road. It was fun. In the Pub in Exeter, I couldn't pay for my own drinks once they found out I was a "Yank" (even though I am from the south) on my honeymoon as I was a guest of the Pub. Played lots of Skittles and had great conversations  with the wonderful folks over there.
