So a 2 piece spinning rod and a fancy reel with gold on, no bait runner? - For catching carp around 5kg -wow - Adrenaline junky - that must be fun on such light gear, i'm sure you will do fine, and catch plenty - that's the kind of gear id use for yellow fin whiting LOL - i use a abu veritas and team diawa tierra for the whiting, if i tried to catch carp on that - i don't think i could get them in - id just get spooled - i'm sure you would love to do some "propper carpin", rods on alarms, chillin with beer in hand - talking into the night - everything from philosophy to quantum physics -best books through to best movies- waiting for that screaming run from a 20+ or even a 30+ .... i got the itch now :)

Oh, you know how to paint a pretty picture! Yep, great fun on the light gear. It started as habit picking up carp as bycatch on my Yellowbelly trips, and just getting used to the gear.
Got a nice fish this evening, about 5some kilo. The gear performed really well. Smooth drag under a long fast run, and the rod was great close in, really pleased and looking forward to many more sessions with the rig.
