BEWARE ABU DHABI ANGLERS

A word of caution for all Abu Dhabi members:

Please take extreme care not to use long rods (any type) and avoid even short carbon (graphite) rods if you go fishing underneath the 400 KV pylons and cables on Eastern Ring Road (Salaam St.) Please be advised such high voltage can jump the gap several metres (like a streak of lightning) if it finds a way to flow and your long rod may act as an extension to your body and provide the required earth. The consequences, as you can imagine, are almost always fatal.

It gives me jitters when I see people fearlessly using 4 and 5 metre rods under these cables. Whenever I go there, I only use my 6’6 boat casting rod, my 7’ baitcaster and my 9’ fibreglass spinning rod.

No fish is more important than personal safety, so do take good care of yourselves and educate others you know.

Screaming reels and bent rods!

Ijlal
