Back of your jeans full of holes from battery acid, ledgering with a swing tip,

 

Was talking about that only the other day, never see one nowadays.

 

Wicker fishing baskets.

Or fishing reels like this lol

is that a boyo or intrepid

 

The Boyo was more square IIRC. My first "Kit" came with one. "The White Whale" from me Mam's club book. My brother and me got one each. Solid fibreglass, heavy as fook. Plastic blue handle.

 

We used to catch the bus to Clifton bridge and fish on the gravel bank near where Fairham brook runs in. Chuck out a ledger, reel in 5 minutes later with a Gudgeon on and think we were Ivan Marks. :laugh:

i was rooting through the shed the other day and found my old diawa matchman ledger rod and a couple of swing tips
