Do you use the pin,
I ask the question simply because I have seen very little evidence of any in use, save for the odd John Wilson programme.
I have noted on site, several references to odd new models of pin but I have no knowledge of them. This suggests their is a market?
For myself I have used Ariels and Speedia. I was brought up on the pin, and was taught to cast from the reel. Does anyone do that today, or is this another lost art. It's some years now since I last did, perhaps I'll test myself in the next few days.
