Wychwood 25L Backpack
1 of 1 found this helpful I have other Wychwood products, and am generally very happy with them. Overall, with this one, the construction quality is quite good and good VFM. Where it falls short really is in the detail of the design.
Firstly, it is not especially roomy, although I acknowledge it is clearly advertised as 25L. Once you have some lightweight pac-a-mac style waterproofs, sandwiches and a small flask in, you're pretty much done due to the design of the harness.
Secondly, once the back pack is full, use of the second compartment is limited to thin things like fly boxes or small, thin items. Also, use of the side pockets is difficult when the pack is full, and would have benefitted from either a bellowed or elasticated design.
Thirdly, the net ring is far too small - none of my nets work very well on it. A slightly larger metal D ring might have been beneficial.
I really like the interior colours, which do help you to find things inside. The internal pockets are useful, and the fly patch velcros and tool D rings on the straps are a nice touch.
Overall, not a bad product, but it would benefit from some improvements to some of the design details. I do make use of it, and am generally pleased, but will use a different pack if I am out for the day. Reflect on your needs before you buy this one.

Good value and effective, but poor set up instructions
Seems a good entry level machine. First attempt at grinding was very effective. Quality is generally good and good value for money. My only beef is against the pretty poor to non-existent set up instructions and a below par user manual. I think Scheppach could do much better in that area given the quality of their machines. Website quite good. Otherwise very happy with my new workshop toy.

Great Spinning Reel
I have a fairly heavyweight (20 - 80g) 9' pike spinning rod, with a fairly aged Daiwa reel. That reel does an OK service with mono, but pre-dated regular use of braid and so could not cope when I tried to load it with braid. Time to retire my trusty old companion of 25 years.
I looked for a replacement, and eyed up enviously my friend's Stradic. I really could not justify the expense of buying one of these, but then I found this. Apart from cosmetics, it looks pretty much the same, with the fighting drag, double handle and so on - I hope I am not doing the Stradic a disservice. I loaded it up with braid, and have since been hauling 70g lures through flowing water - a fair test, I think. This reel has handled it with ease, in terms of its cranking power, and has seen no evidence whatsoever, even in these testing conditions, of line bed in. It casts like a dream, with level line lay on retrieve, and my casting distance is more than double what I could do with the old reel for the same amount of effort. It has the reassuringly solid feel I have become used to with Shimano, and balances out my rod perfectly. I was particularly impressed to receive 2 alloy spools as standard; often, the second spool is plastic.
The first pike (12lb) came to the net with no dramas, and the reel behaved impeccably. So, in terms of quality, and value for money, I really could not be happier.
