  1. Past hour
  2. Ive seen campers use these pegs and use an impact driver to put them in. They don't budge i know that, but carrying a drill is a pain if you're fishing.
  3. Buckwheat has very low oil content and in my mind its the oil content that in hemp that makes it so good. Buckwheat to bulk out a particle mix yes but not to replace hemp , for me anyway.
  4. Yesterday
  5. Rig marole Camh20 25lb for booms 2 packs of trig hammer xt size 4 Gardner camflex leader Marker leads And some mainline fruit Smart liquid.
  6. Last week
  7. Hemp quality has definitely dropped. It is smaller, harder to split and just doesn't seem as effective. I love standard birdfoods, although the additional aniseed ones are even better. Buckwheat is a good choice mixed with crushed maize and birdfoods.
  8. You're already going through enough without this, it's too bad. I had words with a homeless addict a week ago in front of work at 6am over him leaving trash around the building and he got all worked up and defensive (I thought the boxes he was going through may have come out of someone's car, so was interested). He left, but left the trash on the sidewalk and moved to a bin across the street and started throwing their trash around and making a mess, so I took his picture. ๐Ÿ˜€
  9. Would have thought a lot of this goes against GDPR rules especially if thereโ€™s no way to turn it off
  10. I'm using up some old hemp, maize and tigers this year so once it's gone I'll have a look at that ๐Ÿ‘
  11. I had a good look through settings and couldn't find anything to turn it off on my Samsung phone and tablet. Ai notes on Facebook posts have gotten ridiculous as well; asking what my dogs temperament is, how do you look after Sky, really bugs me.
  12. View left side of the swim Sunday morning, glad I opened it up ๐Ÿ‘Œ
  13. Haven't used hemp seed for a few years now, became to expensive and quality seemed to drop too. I am now using my own spomb mix, over method feeders, was very impressed how the buckwheat 'resembled' large hemp seed when cooked, might be worth a try for others on here?
  14. Fortis compact binos, brilliant - should have changed mine years ago, these are so steady - couldn't put them down tbh ๐Ÿ‘ also as a review: really like the wader bucket after owning a few months now - they're great, waders are clean and dry and ready in the swim where you want them, deffo waterproof ๐Ÿ‘
  15. NO - gonna ask my mate to see if he can turn it off in the settings
  16. Oh grief! I am so wound up. My father is 84, and has dementia so my brother and I split visits with him a few times a week each as he is still independent and living on his own. Today was my day, and I had to be there from 10am until his normal medication delivery arrived, but immediately after had to go pick up his antibiotics prescription from Boots and do him some shopping, which involved a trip into town. So one of the 'homeless' trying to 'help' at the car park ticket machine, in other words beg. This idiot chose to give me verbals in Ipswich town centre, and then decided to try to push me when I refused his assistance as I paid on my card. I put him down and left him tangled up in the post at the car park. Got back to my car and he was taking photos of my car. He then tried to carry on with the mouth and wanting to fight. I just picked his bike up and moved it and him out of the way. You can see what happened to his trousers when I left him attached to the post by the waistband
  17. Are you happy with Ai listening in? I get so many adverts after checking links on here and not all are the good type... I have flicked the search on fleabay: https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_nkw=bivvy+pegs&_sacat=0&_from=R40&_trksid=p4432023.m570.l1313 I don't mind ebay adverts, I use it anyway.
  18. I beg to differ, I'm an old school Chicago Bears fan, and played for 20years. Terry Hearn is one of the few people I can watch.
  19. I use the 35 version for feature finding and spodding so basically it does the most casting: compact, lightweight and looks good. Got the Basia's, Custom Tournies and Big Pit Baitrunners but would be happy to go with a set of 35 or 45 Emblems - no worries ๐Ÿ‘
  20. Wonโ€™t get 39 turns on a standard carp hook For a really easy knot search for knotless knot.
  21. Not exactly boring mate, but was same old same old. Didn't realise Terry Hearn was actually registered as a LTD company on companies house, fair play to the bloke and not some no mark bivvie tramp living off freebie tackle and baits for a brief spell on social media!
  22. Any idea what this knot is called? It looks interesting:!
  23. So annoying, was on the phone to my mum whilst walking the dog, talking about her broken garage door. When I got home every advert on social media, news pages and youtube on the telly was garage doors. Stop listening to me - unreal!
  24. You mean kind of like the magic twig where you push it in the ground and then the prongs come out and it gets stuck in weed ๐Ÿคฃ Facebook always knows. I haven't looked at tent pegs on there and this ad came up.
  25. The JAG ones are only 12.49 EACH, what's wrong with you?!?! ๐Ÿ˜‚ I'd only need 10, that's less than one storm pole ๐Ÿคฃ If I end up buying these now it's your fault Elmo! I've just ordered their distance sticks, always struggle to push mine into the hard ground.
  26. You would have thought a peg should be able to do its job without thinking about it kind of like that picture they could use a set of wings or prongs like a fork on the top part of it that you can stand on at the end to give it a final push home once wound in as an added bit of security. there ya go kev a proper bit of development that will keep the company afloat a while longer
  27. I'm one of those who uses standard strong bivvy pegs. I've looked at mine and they are the screw in pegs provided by Rod Hutchinson with the brolly system, or some screw in pegs I bought for another bivvy. I did also have a quick look at Johnson Ross (https://johnsonrosstackle.co.uk/1477-bivvy-pegs) and Tackle Box and to be honest in terms of tent/bivvy pegs carp tax is actually low. I've not found ground I can't get that type of peg in, and I have always screwed them in rather than used a mallet, and at Nazeing I did take one just in case for the sailing bank which was hardcore, but was always able to screw them in. If I have any complaint it is that in soft ground in windy weather pegs pull loose. I have got one bent RH bivvy peg, but that is actually down to Sky catching her lead around it as she went for something. It was deep in hard ground, and she pulled and bent it out. Saying that, she has also bent thick banksticks, storm poles and storm sticks, and blooming dog spikes.
  28. Custard doughnuts, one of my sweet treats. I do try to avoid 'junk' food, but I do have a sweet tooth. My fishing lunch is frequently smoked bacon sandwiches or bacon rolls, with a proper dinner. It was from a Tim Paisley book, and Rod Hutchinson advice to do a 'production meal' at night. It takes time up, and obviously is healthy. I feed Sky from 17.00 onwards, her stomach has a clock timer, so after I have fed her and given her a 'pee walk', a hundred metre wander up the bank, I get my dinner sorted. I do try to do the healthy option, which is actually easier in winter and cooler temperatures than hot summers unless I go buy fresh meat or fish every day. I try to make the biscuits, jam tarts, doughnuts or whatever as my evening dessert.
