Spring is yet to come...

Since I got my tackles ready (picture below), I went to the lake to check how much it works after I replaced some parts of the reel.

When I got one of the sites in Lake Kasumigaura, I found it heavily-windy out there so that I could hardly cast my rod against the gale.

looks good adding a new carbon handle!!
wonderfully completed!!

windy, windy, windy...

I am going to try the reel again on the day when it is not windy.
