I was here towards the end of April/first week of May. I tried my hand at spinning. I had a cheap telescopic rod which proceeded to snap in half after only a few days of not catching anything, so I bought a basic telescopic number for about 15 euros. Very well made IMO, can't remember the name of it, but I'll be glad to use it again next time I come over to visit my brother! The reel was in perfect working order so I didn't see the point in buying another. My lure cost about 3 euros, it had a good weight, and flew much easier and further that one my dad had packed which was actually larger!
I tried St. George's Bay just above Paceville. I caught a dead parrot (not even kidding...)
I also had a fun time spinning in the evening and early morning at Tigne Point in front of the new hotel. Go along the bridge which takes you along the sea front, there is a rock garden along the length of a path (in front of a bar/restaurant thing) and there's a break in the rocks, with some sort of black ground sheet, this immediately takes you to some hidden steps which takes you right to some rocks which go right up to the sea. Beautiful!
I also popped to Gozo for the day, and had a quick spin from the cliffs at the Azure Window.
No cigar though, I'm a total newbie to spinning (fishing in general actually

) So I may have the natural technique of a special needs kid. I enjoyed myself though, the sensation of reeling in regularly instead of casting and staring at a float was a lot more engaging for me
