Hi Alan/all, my name is Pete I'm from Auckland NZ first time posting in this forum.
Reason for joining is to up skill myself to a point I can better maintain my reels perhaps even service my own gear eventually & equally as important to be a part of another fishing mad community.
Cheers Pete

Welcome Pete,
Jump right in the waters fine!

Learn how to post pictures ASAP as your country is on my list, especially  the Oreti River and the Mataura River. on South Is.

Again Welcome!

Hello everyone,

I just got on the board wanting to know what the best thing i can do to my Avet MXJ 6/4, and there is so much info on here i just had to join in and want to continue learning and hopefully share any knowledge i learn. Just started rod building and am just about done with my first jig stick, can't wait to try it this weekend. Hopefully it holds but i'm paring it up with my MXJ to see what happens.  ;D

Hi all.  I am a new member to the site.  My name is Doug from Orange County, CA.  I found a link to this site when I was researching the Okuma Andros.  I love to fish but consider myself a newbie to fishing still.  There is so much to learn about fishing and of course the gear associated with it.  This site is so informative because you all are so willing the share your knowledge and experiences.  Thanks!!!

Welcome Doug.  Although I have been repairing and upgrading reels for sometime now, I am constantly learning, and when you consider the accumulative information here, I think we are all novices as a whole, but together, we are near experts...of course there are exceptions and the exceptional.
