A new park just opened in our town, and it has a large lake at its center. I went with Piplup to check out the fishing, and although we didn’t catch anything, we had a very nice ride. And as a bonus, I got a tip about a good fishing spot from another fisherman. Score!

Many people buy the rear rack for their Bromptons just so that they can have a more stable stance for it when it is folded. But I found that the rack and the Brompton’s low top-tube are perfect for carrying a fishing pole. The other end of the poles (two sections) are secured to the top-tube with simple velcro straps, although you can simply tie it with a string too.

I put my small tackle box in the Brompton Borough Large bag in front. A nice combo for a fishing trip!
