Sea Fishing Tackle Part 1 – Rods

This entry marks a bit of a departure from the normal. As we’re not fishing at the moment and the weather is a bit wet for walking I’ll be outlining some of the gear we use in our sea fishing.

This first installment is all about the rods we use, why we bought them and what we use them for.

Before buying a new rod or even going into a tackle shop ask yourself a few basic questions. What type of fish do you want to catch, where do you want to catch them from and how do you want to catch them.

Once you’ve answered these questions you’ll have a much better idea one what it is you’re looking for. Have a look in the sea angling magazines for reviews on the type of rod you’re after, go into your local tackle shop and speak to the staff – most will be only to happy to help but the best advice I can give is ‘try before you buy’. Most clubs or groups of anglers have regular get togethers or matches and will be happy to let you ‘have a go’.

Remember, money isn’t everything, just becasue a rod cost a lot does not mean it is suitable for you – if you can’t us the rod in the way you want too, your well earned cash has been wasted. Remember, a rod is just a method to get the baited trace into the sea and out to the feeding fish – no amount of money or fancy label / brand will change this.

20060820_rodsTo the left you can see the rods that we currently use (going from the left)

1. Century Tip Tornado Match – My main rod, used in just about any situation where distance is the issue and a weight of between 4 and 6oz is needed to tow the bait to the fish. Although this was expensive I’ve been very pleased with it – it’s light (for a beach caster) and suits my style of casting well. I also have a ‘Sport’ version (rated to cast 4-8oz) of this rod which has a bit more ‘poke’ but I only bring it out when the weather is horrific or I’m after very big fish such as conger eels from the rock.

2. Zziplex 3500 – Wendy’s main rod. Although the same length and diameter as the Tip Tornado (13 foot long) this rod is much lighter (rated to cast 3 – 5oz) to use and easier to compress (the bend in the rod generated from casting). This suits Wendy very well as being quite short and a woman (obviously) she doesn’t have as much upper body strength as me which you need to get the most out of modern hi-performance rods. It’s ‘rung’ for a fixed-spool reel but I’ll go into that in a later post.

3. Shakespeare Odessa Bass – This year we bought a couple of these and at appox. £50 they have been great value. At 11.5 feet long these are ideal light rods for estuary fishing, light beach fishing or heavy spinning of the rocks. They will cast 2 – 4oz a huge distance if needed with very little effort and we’ve used them almost constantly over the summer. We could have got something lighter (which would have been nice) but we didn’t want to spend to much until we were convinced of their usefulness and also as we take them on the rocks a lot £50 is a lot less than £100 upwards to scratch, bash or break.

4. Daiwa 10 foot Whisker Spin – We have one of these each for light float fishing and spinning / plugging. The rods are fantastic fun and during the summer we take them everywhere. They are very, very light but as they are designed for Salmon fishing are incredibly strong and we’ve both had some sizeable fish on them. Catching a single 1.5lb Mackerel on one of these will open your eyes to light tackle fishing – great fun and although expensive at the time (3 years ago) they’ve been great value.

Most of the rods have been purchased from Gerry’s of Morecambe where the service has been second to none and build quality where the rods were custom built (my two Tip Tornados and Wendy’s Zziplex 3500) has been superb – I recommend them to everyone if you want to see what you’re getting or talk to someone who know all about fishing.

So that’s it, we’ve also had or still have rods from Penn or Greys but the above are what we mainly use. Next up – reels…

PRESS RELEASE: Recent Fire Illustrates Need for Constant Training

Avon Volunteer Fire Department Commends a Job Well Done

August 5, 2014 | Avon, CT – Those who were not in the vicinity of the Avonwood Apartment Complex Monday afternoon, July 14, and didn’t catch a quick status update on the Avon Volunteer Fire Department’s Facebook page, likely had no idea the AVFD’s volunteers were in the midst of a very challenging situation. There wasn’t much about the incident on television or in newspapers and, typically, the AVFD prefers it that way, never wanting to exploit personal loss for glory. However, even though fire personnel did a great job controlling and extinguishing the flames, it was exactly the kind of situation that underscores the Department’s need for additional and continual training and the funds to make that training possible.

“Our volunteers and those from the mutual aid companies who assisted us did an incredible job,” says AVFD Chief Michael Trick. “For several of our firefighters, this was the first time they’ve had to conduct a mass evacuation of a building complex swiftly and safely while other crews endured very heavy smoke conditions to locate and extinguish the flames. And, while we are fortunate to live in a town where we don’t see this type of fire activity very often, gaining this type of tactical experience on an active scene is most certainly not the method of training we prefer.”

Just after 2:00 p.m. on Monday, July 14, 2014, the fire department was dispatched to 47 Avonwood Road for an activated fire alarm. Within minutes, the dispatch center received numerous 911 calls for smoke seen in the building. With that information, Incident Commander Assistant Chief Tom Kline requested assistance from area fire departments due to the size of the building and the number of possible occupants of the building.

Upon arrival at the scene, firefighters saw heavy smoke billowing from the basement of the building – some quickly evacuated people and pets from all 60 apartment units while others prepared to locate and extinguish the fire. At the height of the incident, firefighters from Simsbury, Farmington, East Farms, Canton, Burlington, Lost Acres, and the UCONN Health Center assisted on scene. Additional units from Suffield, East Granby, Windsor Locks, Windsor, and Bloomfield provided coverage for any additional calls for service that occurred while local units were working on scene.

“It takes a large number of personnel to control a situation in a large building such as this,” says Assistant Chief Kline. “If there were any other incidents that occurred at the same time as the fire at Avonwood, Avon, Canton, and Simsbury were covered by mutual aid units standing by in Avon.”

“It was a difficult fire to get to in a large basement with little ventilation and tremendous heat,” says Avon Fire Marshal Jamie DiPace. “Even though fire crews prevented the flames from spreading beyond the basement, there was a lot of smoke damage and several families have been displaced temporarily.”

AVFD personnel remained on scene until nearly 9:00 p.m. watching for hotspots and escorting residents to their homes to retrieve belongings. The Fire Marshal’s office was present to participate in the investigation until 3:30 a.m. Tuesday.

Meanwhile, motorists, cyclists, runners, and pedestrians passing by the AVFD Company 3 fire house on West Avon Road over the past couple of weeks have likely noticed a new sign. Created by Avon Middle School art teacher Elaine Lefebvre, the sign, showing a firefighter holding a ladder, illustrates how much money the AVFD has raised in support of its commitment to the live fire training facility to be built in Farmington.

“We need a total of $1 million to make this facility a reality,” says DiPace, who is also the AVFD fundraising co-chair. “Avon’s commitment is $500,000. So far, both Avon and Farmington have raised about $580,000. It’s our hope that people will see the ladder and realize they have the ability help us climb to the top – every penny counts.”

A portion of the money raised through the AVFD’s annual appeal letter which was mailed out earlier this year will go toward the training facility. For those who may not want to simply write a check or submit a credit card donation through the AVFD website, the Department is planning fundraising events. Next is the AVFD’s 1st Annual Golf Tournament on Monday August 11, 2014. Sponsors and golfers are still needed. Other events are being planned for late summer/early fall.

About Fire Training

When it comes to fire training, there’s no such thing as enough. As volunteers who train to the level of career firefighter, members of the AVFD are required to recertify at least annually. The AVFD is partnering with the Town of Farmington Fire Department to build a new live fire training facility, allowing members to retain the proficiency of their special skills. AVFD members will be able to practice and improve their skills in a realistic setting with a more reasonable time commitment, learning how to better protect themselves so they can better protect the residents of Avon and their property.

About the AVFD

Incorporated in 1943, the Avon Volunteer Fire Department proudly protects more than 18,000 people living in the 22.6 square mile area that makes up the Town of Avon. The Department’s mission is to provide fire suppression and prevention, life safety and rescue support, as well as other community support to the citizens of the Town of Avon. In addition, the Department provides mutual aid support to those surrounding communities that, in time of need, may request such assistance.

Staffed entirely by volunteers, the Avon Volunteer Fire Department prides itself on the selflessness and dedication of its members – firefighters, fire police, administrative members, Explorers, active veterans, and senior veterans, all of whom play a vital role in the safety of Avon. The Department operates six companies and 15 pieces of apparatus, including a brush truck, ladder truck, tanker, rescue vehicle, boat, and pumpers. Four stations are located throughout Town – Company 1 on Darling Drive, Company 2 on Secret Lake Road, Company 3 on West Avon Road, and Company 4 on Huckleberry Hill Road. Anyone interested in learning more about the AVFD should call the Avon Volunteer Fire Department (AVFD) at 677-2644, visit, connect on Facebook at AvonVFD, or stop by the Company 1 firehouse located at 25 Darling Drive any Monday evening after 7:00.

The Heartbreaking Real-Life Story of Eddie Guerrero

Some professional wrestlers are legends because of what they've done in the ring. Others become icons thanks to who they were behind the scenes, inspiring everyone around them on a daily basis.

Then, there are those rare, special individuals who simply have it all. Eddie Guerrero was one of those people. He came from the stock of Mexican wrestling royalty, but he would, in his short life, go on to become one of the definitive performers of his generation.

Yet, there will always be this tinge of sadness associated with the Eddie Guerrero story; a bittersweet melancholy which comes over many when they think of how much more Eddie could've achieved, had he not passed away at the young age of 38 back in 2005. This isn't to say, of course, that Eddie's accolades weren't numerous. In fact, Guerrero was a decorated champion with numerous title wins to his credit.

But we're getting ahead of ourselves. In order to properly discuss the life of Eduardo Gory Guerrero Llanes, we have to first talk about two things: family and tradition. Eddie spent his early years in Texas and New Mexico, and it was at the University of New Mexico where Eddie first was bitten by the wrestling bug, having competed in the amateur division while there on an athletic scholarship. To be fair, however, there was probably no other career path Eddie could've taken, as it seems as if The Guerreros were simply born to wrestle.

The business was in their blood, and it all started with Eddie's father, Gory Guerrero. Just as names like El Santo, Mil Mascaras and The Blue Demon are sacred in the world of Mexican Lucha Libre wrestling, so too was Gory Guerrero cut from this cloth, serving as one of the industry's most well known names and pioneers. Eddie would move to Mexico to train with, among others, his nephew Chavo Jr., learn his trade under the supervision of Gory. It was also here where Chavo and Eddie would watch some of Mexican wrestling's all time greats work matches on a nightly basis. It was a nearly perfect education.

Eddie would cut his teeth in Mexican promotions such as CMLL and the AAA in late eighties and early nineties, before flying over to New Japan Pro Wrestling to further expand his pro wrestling acumen. Guerrero was living the life of an indie wrestler, making towns and working under many different promotions, but it would be with two specific American companies that the name Eddie Guerrero would start to grow.

Paul Heyman's ECW and World Championship Wrestling saw Eddie competing as both a champion and a jobber, putting over established talent early in his career before capturing the U.S. and Cruiserweight titles in WCW. The latter's cruiserweight division was where Eddie seemed to belong, and where he truly began to shine. This aspect of the company was always something WCW had overthe WWF during the Monday Night Wars, as the cruiserweight division became known for show-stealing matches with some of the company's most exciting young talent.

Still, WCW's reputation of being "where the big boys played" meant that smaller guys like Eddie would never get a chance to truly show what they could do at the top of the card. This meant that it was off for greener pastures as the nineties entered the new millennium: Eddie Guerrero was off to the WWF. It was here where Eddie did arguably some of the best work of his career, but it's also here where we have to acknowledge the elephant in the room, specifically Guerrero's history with substance abuse.

It's no secret to many of Eddie's fans that he was a man who struggled. He struggled with pain medication, alcohol and self-doubt. But his story isn't a sad sack, "woe is me" tale, but rather one of an uphill fight for redemption. Here was an "everyman" who represented the beating heart of all of us who want to work hard for our dreams, fight for our goals and do everything in our power to make them happen. We want to see these people succeed, and come out of their own personal darkness. Eddie was one of these people.

He was already in a lot of nagging pain, thanks to a New Year's car accident back in 1999. An addiction to pain medication meant that Eddie's first run in the WWF in the early 2000s was memorable, but brief and fraught with injury. His "invasion" of the company alongside fellow WCW alumni Dean Malenko, Perry Saturn and Chris Benoit was over almost as soon as it began, as Eddie injured his elbow performing his patented "frog splash" finisher off the top turnbuckle. Guerrero would return in the Spring after some recovery time, but it wasn't exactly the sort of impact he had in mind.

It was after this return when Eddie managed to buck the trend of on-screen wrestling romances by entering into a program with The 8th Wonder of the World, Chyna. Guerrero's "Latino Heat" character and television relationship with Chyna was legitimately sweet-a rarity in the business-and got the pair over big time. Eddie further solidified his reputation as one of the business' finest workhorses by putting together stellar matches, utilizing in-ring skill, psychology and charisma to craft some of the industry's contests.
Old ghosts would catch up to Eddie during this first tour in the WWF, however, and he would be sent packing after a stint in rehab, brought upon by a continued substance problem. He would never leave thesquared circle very far behind, however, and continued to travel the independent circuit, performing against the likes of CM Punk, Super Crazy and Rey Mysterio. A return to the WWF, now the WWE would eventually be in the cards, however, and this time Eddie Guerrero would fight to do it clean and sober.

If Eddie's first run for Vince McMahon was impactful, then his return in 2002 would hit even harder, as Guerrero teamed with Chavo to introduce the "lie, cheat and steal" gimmick for their tag team, Los Guerreros. Eddie would win tag team gold twice during this time, once with Yoshihiro Tajiri and later with Chavo, as well as the United States title. None of these impressive wins would quite touch themoment many fans remember best from this period, however: the time Eddie Guerrero beat Brock Lesnar for the WWE Championship.

On WWE paper, Eddie lied, cheated and stole his way to victory. In reality, however it was validation for Eddie Guerrero the man. Here was a living legend overcoming personal demons to reach the very apex of his profession. The image of Eddie leaping into the crowd after his win says it all: here was a man of the people celebrating with everyone who believed in him from the start. This isn't to say that Guerrero wasn't feeling the daily effects of a lifestyle which has taken its toll. Eddie would make the most of the WWE's medical staff to try and alleviate the nagging physical ailments of fatigue and abuse, yet out there in the ring, it was as if Eddie Guerrero was immortal.

But Eddie wasn't immortal. He was human. He was also clean and sober, but that doesn't erase any of the damage done to his body over the years. Guerrero would work many other excellent programs during his final years with the WWE, alongside superstars like Batista, JBL and the aforementioned Rey Mysterio. Ultimately, it wasn't an overdose or accident which took Eddie's life, but rather the real liferesults of a life well worn and hard earned. Guerrero would die from heart failure on November 13th, 2005. His body was found in a Minneapolis hotel room, with the official autopsy results stating that atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease was a major contributor to his death.

Today, the Guerrero name lives on, in the memories and matches performed in his honor by family and friends. Eddie's widow Vicki would become one of the WWE's most memorable heel authority figures after her husband's death, while Chavo continues on the family legacy wrestling for companies like Lucha Underground. Meanwhile, Eddie's daughter Shaul Guerrero worked as a wrestler herself under thename Raquel Diaz for the WWE's developmental program, proving that the apple didn't fall far from the tree.

So is it heartbreaking that we lost Eddie Guerrero so young? Absolutely. One can only image how many more matches Latino Heat had in him, or how much more knowledge he'd be able to impart to today's amazing new generation of performers. Yet, at the same time, this bright star of the professional wrestling business had such an impact, that he remains somehow immortal; a strand of the industry's DNA that is intrinsically linked with the sport. So much so that he will never be forgotten.

Recovering + Update

B and I are recovering from colds. I initially caught it from B… but luckily I think we are both on the mend. Runny noses are never fun… not for Mommy and definitely not for B!!!! He does NOT like his nose wiped, that’s for sure!!!!

Sad news: Patrick’s cousin that was our age [29] passed away last Sunday afternoon. He had a motorcycle accident and didn’t survive. Patrick attended his funeral yesterday morning. I was unable to attend because of work conflicts, but it was nice that Patrick was able to make it.

I was able to sneak out of the office yesterday afternoon, though, to head to the Minnesota State Fair! B won’t be going for a couple of years yet but P & I have made it a yearly must-do. I did miss it the year that I was pregnant with B because of the huge ‘swine flu’ scare but I do enjoy going. We had lots of good eats.. including cheese curds [the BEST at the fair!], swedish meatballs on a stick, deep fried apple pie, pork chop on a stick, strawberry-rhubarb malt, egg roll on a stick, white razzy puppy [belgian waffle wrapped around white chocolate, dipped in dark chocolate and topped with whipped cream and raspberry drizzle], strawberries & cream, french fries, 1919 root beer, and beer on a stick!… it sounds like a disgusting amount of food but we shared everything and it was over a span of about 5 hours. It only happens once a year so I try to pack it in. Surprisingly, I wasn’t even over-stuffed by the time we left. No, I’m not prego again. 😉

My Parents’ Church had a sale yesterday and today. They get donations from Carters and Osh Kosh… mainly things they can’t sell in their stores anymore or in their outlets. I’m not sure how it’s decided what they give to the church, but it’s still good stuff!!!! I got a huge bag for only $27.25!!! Including a brand new Carter’s 3T 4-in-1 winter jacket!!!! That thing cost me a whopping 8$!!! My awesome haul also included a Melissa & Doug puzzle for 1$ and a pair of brand new Carters shoes for 1$… Hat & Mitten sets for 1$… just an awesome sale!!!! I ♥ when they have it and my Mom is able to get first dibs on most of it as she works with the ladies running it. It’s nice to have an ‘in’ sometimes!!! I gotta say… my Mom ROCKS! 🙂

I don’t know if I mentioned before or not on here… but B has started crawling out of the pack & play. No, he doesn’t sleep in it at home but he did used to sleep in that over at my Parents’ house! We got a crib for over there now but he still sleeps in one at daycare…. I’m not sure of the protocol for daycares… but I feel like she should provide a safe sleeping environment for the children she provides care for??? Or is that our responsibility? I’m not sure where the line falls there…. anyone have any ideas on that???

And…. I was wondering who all is starting or in the middle of… potty training???? B shows absolutely no interest in the toilet… the adult one or his so I know we’re not ready yet. But I know this age range is the beginning of that fun stuff. 🙂

Anyway, enough babbling. Hope everyone is doing well and is healthy.

Have a wonderful weekend all!!!

4 thoughts on “Recovering + Update

  1. Sorry about your cousin. :(How dare you post about all that tasty fair food without showing us any photos! :)As for the potty, we have one in the bathroom, but Liam just treats it like a chair right now. He almost made his first #2 in it (when we thought he was about to go in the bath…gross), but it was a false alarm. Probably won't be ready for a long time. A lot of my friends with girls had them trained around this age… darn little boys for making us suffer with diapers longer! haha

  2. First off, I am so sorry to hear about P's cousin. The majority of my extended family members ride motorcycles and I know how dangerous they can be. Sounds like you had a blast at the fair! Why can't B go yet? Glad you got to indulge in all the yummy fair food! My weakness is always funnel cake. :)Jack sleeps in a pack n' play at daycare, and you're right- they should provide a safe sleep environment for them. That's not something you should have to worry about. Does he go to a center or a home daycare? Jack's daycare asked me if he could start sleeping on a cot and I said no, not yet, since he's still perfectly fine in the PnP. Maybe B would be ready for a cot? I worked in a daycare with 2 year olds, and they all took their naps on cots, which the daycare provided (along with sheets which were washed weekly). The parents just provided the blanket, pillow, and anything else the kid would want to sleep with. As for potty training, it's still way too early! I started sitting Jack on a potty chair months ago. He'd sit on it naked before his bath. He actually went in it a few times and didn't mind sitting there. He even sat on it at daycare and went poop! But now he shows absolutely zero interest in sitting on it. He points at it and says potty. He watches me go and will say potty. He says ewwww when he looks inside the toilet. He knows that poop is gross. But he hasn't made the connection that he should go in the potty and not anywhere else (diaper, floor, bath- all of which he has done. Gross!). Eventually it'll click and they will still refuse to sit on it just because they can and that's when the bribing starts! 🙂 I'm waiting until Jack turns 2 (unless he shows signs of readiness before then), and hopefully I'll know when he's ready. I think once they can tell you that they've pooped in their diaper, then they are ready or close to it. My friend's daughter (also 20 months) will tell her parents when she has made a poop, so she understands and will probably be ready sooner! Sorry for the book!! 🙂

  3. P.S. I am super jealous of the great deals you got on that carters stuff!!! I love Melissa and Doug puzzles and would go crazy if I could find them for $1. And awesome deal on the coat too!

  4. Wow – I love love love thrift sales! We've gotten some great finds that way for next to nothing.Glad you guys are feeling better!

Mother’s Day Cards

I will most likely be getting my card for my Mother at Shutterfly. I love their personalized cards and they are very reasonably priced considering the price of cards these days at Hallmark, etc!!!! That is, if I can meet the deadline of ordering it. *Note to self – do soon! haha
Mother’s Day is coming up and I have been trying to think of something special and thoughtful for my Sisters and myself to get my sweet Mom. It’s hard to buy presents for Parents… at least it is for me!!!! I pride myself on being a “good-present-buyer”, so it’s always a lot of pressure!!!! 🙂
Anyway, I was looking on etsy and found some funny cards!!!
Here are a few of my favorites:

what is webaddresshere ?

‘web address here’ is the name of our site.

our propose is to share websites in the world. but we don’t write all website.

we gonna write trustworthy and popular websites.

people are interested in the websites give high quality information. (not just quantity)

if you want to make ‘steak’, first of all, you do type ‘how to make steak?”

so google shows you perfect recipe to make steak.

like this –

how to search
which site do you want to click ?

did you see the list of result ? were you satisfied ? maybe you were satisfied.

but if you want to information about not ‘steak’ but ‘art’ or ‘computers’ and so on..

I mean ‘big range’ and then how to search the website ?

most of them will be in trouble as they search for it.

“what keywords do I search for ? ” or ” Okay, just type simply ”

if you do so, there are no results that you want.

so we will settle these problems.

how? we will search the useful website and then we upload them by categories.

just you come here, webaddresshere.

Social Media has opened our appetite.

By Janette Speyer, Web Success Team – Eating has taken on a whole new meaning since the popularity of social media and the explosion of smartphone usage. I remember when food was simply something I ate and when full, I was never tempted to think about it or eat more! It was a time when junk food tasted great and cooking was what your mother did. I, of course, didn’t have time to cook, I was working! That is what pizza and Mac and cheese were for – quick, easy and filling! No so today...

Traditional and Digital Marketing — the “Social” Divide

Lottery Tickets

OK, as you may know, we’re planning to give everyone a lottery ticket ‘on us’ on the night. Being a Wednesday, it coincides with the mid-week draw. As you also may know, the draw results are shown late on the TV – around 10.30 but the actual draw takes place around 8.30. I therefore have a cunning plan to have the results relayed to us on the night. Then it would a simple matter of asking Ralph or the Toastmaster to announce the results to the congregation…

Our original thought was to place the tickets inside the keepsake and ask Best Man and Ushers to draw guests’ attention to it when the keepsake is handed out on arrival. Because of some complexity around date of purchase vs date of the draw, I’m advised that the best time to actually purchase the tickets is the week immediately before the Wedding – easy!

But of course, the keepsakes will all be finished and tied with a ribbon, and I don’t think any of us fancy un-ribboning and re-ribboning! :)

An alternative might be to slip the ticket behind the ribbon… I’m just a tad concerned it might be a bit naff…!

If you have any ideas or thoughts, let me know by email – or give us a call.

Reminder: Don’t click on REPLY in your email, as it won’t reach me

Thank you…
