A letter from a 15-year-old angler
I can’t really explain it well, but I was moved very much to receive this letter from a 15-year-old angler in Australia. These things really make me happy that I opened this site and keep going.
Here’s Luke.
I’ve used a cheap slow pitch jigging outfit and already caught numerous different species that I couldn’t when high speed jigging. I usually do light tackle spin fishing in the estuary for bream, whiting, flathead and jewfish but whenever the weather is suitable for ocean fishing I can’t help asking dad if we can go for a fish. I will soon have a decent slow pitch rod to complement my new ocea jigger 2000hg so I can really target some of the deeper water species that have eluded me with my cheaper setup.
As I am only 15 I don’t get much time away from school and work and sport but whenever I can I race to the water and try practice my slow pitch jigging as it is the most effective and complex form of lure fishing I have done and can use the knowledge I already have to help develop my skill in jigging along with watching clips and getting advice from the experts in Japan.
