Default First outing for the Nielsen

JeremyB's detective work/review in the Nielsen/ebay thread in Tackle Talk led me to splash out £27 on one of the 5wt powerflex rods. I'm very much still a novice so can't comment on how good the rod is, but it catches fish Taken on a suspender buzzer. (and before anyone asks - no my line isn't wound onto the reel wrongly - just trapped behind the reel )

Brockhill Trout Fishery near Redditch

http://www.brockhill-farm.co.uk/

Two quite small pools in a nice setting - water v. clear. It's rarely very busy, but there are no facilities (other than a hut to shelter in). Not as easy as, for example, Bransford but I usually manage to catch a couple. Closes sometime in November I believe.
