Just bear in mind that the shop will be trying to make a sale so decide which set up suits your fishing before asking advice

Thanks for the explanation. Will look at tubing set up... Need to talk to the local tackle shop to help me with this I think. Great forum BTW....loads of stuff to read through while I'm pondering a nice carp Sent from my Sony Xperia

Beat me!

as far as i can see Jim, tubing will help to protect the fish from line rubbing its flanks and scale lifting. tubing will also help stop abrasion on your line from gravel or swan muscles etc and also with the camouflaging of your line. a leader will also do some of these things but mainly assist in helping you to chuck a three stone lead over the horizon without cracking off

Dont keep the small poles attached to the bivvy screwed on all the time , ,i understand they will rub the material away if you do, unscrew them when packing up and screw back on when starting

Yeah for sure! Added a handful to my dog's normal raw food diet out of curiosity. They ate it, doesn't mean it's any good mind!

Used it yesterday pre-baiting an area to use up what I have. Mixed 50% vitalin, 20% fishmeal, 10% lamlac and 20% particle. Balls up really well which is what I wanted. Fished over it today and had a bream on a tiger nut. Decided to move the rod after that. Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

Cheers! Gone for the 60" brolly. Will keep my fox royale 1 man with over wrap for the proper cold trips, and use the brolly the rest of the time. Gone for the new camo colour. Not really a fan of camo, but this is a bit different, I like it. Can't wait for it to arrive now. Gonna look great behind my new delks. Ah well, can't take it with ya!

There will be some 9 foot 3 piece stalking rods around. I think greys do one and maybe wychwood? If you're looking for a bag for them as well, Im sure Cotswold Aquarius will do one. I think they produce the bag for the Dymag mobile system, it has a decent strap, space for three rods, landing net pocket and pocket for bank sticks/alarms etc. I use this with mine and quite often use the central zipped pocket meant for a third rod for a rig wallet and the minimum of gear I need to do a few hours fishing.
