I had some good fishing, camping and touring. I saw some beautiful places, I met some of NZ&#8217;s best anglers; One of whom I was watching in amazement about ten years ago in a fishing film. Robbie Mcphee is his name. He&#8217;s captured on film catching some really big fish!, I broke my TCX. That&#8217;s break number one. I broke my old XP 10&#8242; 7 weight 13 times and currently all sections need attention. I broke John O Malley&#8217;s TCR 3 times I think (and his loomis and maybe his 10 weight pike rod!). Sage must love me! I guess that&#8217;s why the rods cost 1300 nzd. I don&#8217;t feel guilty but I should be more careful. What else? Some new water next I think. Maybe a lake. That&#8217;s all I have to say for now.<\/p>\n<p>Ronan..<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat:
