My name is Tiger Huang. Let me tell you a story. To a fisher or an angler you may not help but laugh because I sure you've heard similar stories before.
I was born in a remote rural villiage in the Anhui Province, which is well-known as the Dabie Moutain Area.(Do you believe that I'v never seen a Spinning Reels user in my childhood times?) When I was in a primary school I began to fish. There are many pools, often linked with rivers here in the mountain area. Some of the pools are natural and some of them are man made for irrigation of agriculture plants especially rice, as well as being used to cultivate fish and even Jumbo Shrimp. My house was surrounded by trees and grasses, but the most important plant to me is Bamboo. Every day I walked in the plantation, I would climb them. (Trolling Reels/Jigging Reels/BIG GAME REELS I've never heard.)These are small parts of my childhood life. The summers there are quite hot, and the adults like to have a rest before the afternoon work. It was a time for the children to play with their young partners. We would always go to a pool and then jump in or dive into the water to enjoy the water and the sunshine. To avoid our parents' discipline, we had to get back before they woke up.We focus on Game Reels a long time.

After school or in the Summer holidays, we were absolutely free and wild. We swam in the small rivers or went to a bamboo plantation so we could cut down a bamboo shoot to use as our rod. We would return home and find a needle from mothers' sewing kit. We bent the needle as a hook, so that the only thing we are lacking is a fishing line and lures. For fishing line we had no choice to buy them for a small shop with our little allowance. Lures, wow! Lures are everywhere if you really want to find them: earth worms, locust, frogs, even the crabs. We threw rice out which blended with wine for at least 6 hours so the fish would gather together because the smell and the rice,and then we bait our needle hooks with earth worms found around the area. Different fishes their food varies,as well their place in the water are different from bottom to the surface.We used cooked rice,kenerl,wheat powder which mixed by wine and other Chinese saurce as lures on hook especially in dry seasons.Now, waiting is all we can do! We always had little patience so when we got back home with small fishes 9 of 10 times we feed them to a cat or a dog. Besides a cat the greatest lover of fish, I think, would be the dog. If you have one give it a try.Hahaha.It's not kidding.(Fly Reels you could find factories in China nowdays but there are few fly fishmen.)
When I graduated from University and went to work in the off-shore city Ningbo, the opportunity to go fishing became scare. But the memory of childhood fishing always comes back to my mind. When I first heard that there are so many styles of fishing, I was startled! Fly Reels, Spinning Reels, Jigging Reels, Trolling Reels(Big Game Reels), Baitcaster Reels, wow! What a significant field. Even now sometimes I am confused but my strong interests in them will last forever in my life.
