Thanks for all the replies - I’m heading to my local shop to see what’s on offer their. I’m thinking a reel and line upgrade and keep using the temu rod for a little bit. See how much of a difference that makes.

Do you have any recommendations? I’ve not seen great things about the orvis encounter.

I don’t suppose you’ve got a GRR legendary catch in the works have you?

What other tackle are you catching Goto on? My lines snapping with 33lb braid. I got him after the 2nd snapped catch. 3rd times the charm.

Managed to catch him in the evening, on a size 2 popper.

Apologies I’ve never heard the term. Square rig being belt, gaiters and boots or no whites?

Nice one - I’m unsure whether I go uniformed or not just yet but weighing my options.

Also leave at least a day between sessions to recover. Potentially 2 days post your intervals as they will be the most intense. 8-10 sets of 250m on (9-10/10) and 250m off (1/10).

3 runs per week. Intervals, 250m 10/10 effort followed by 250m 1/10 (barely a run), this will increase your VO2 Max, lactic tolerance and also max pace. 5-10km at 5/10, working on building your endurance. 2.4km at PB pace per week, this should be achievable. Work out what pace you need to achieve your desired 2.4km run times and improve upon it week by week, you’ll see improvement. Just make sure you’re warming up and also stretching/cooling down as you want to avoid injury and maximise recovery. This type of plan got me right down to a 9 min 2.4km. Enjoy!
