Weighing fish in the landing net is poor fish care in my book . There is a reason why we support under the fish in the net when lifting out of the water . These purpose made slings are definitely the right option.

This is how I see it to Big common I have similar standards and is also no surprise to me at the two members that decided to launch an attack on chillfactor. And in answer to his original post No I wouldn't pay the recommended retail price for some of those items. but at the same time if I didn't have the same stance as Bishop some of the discount prices are good value for people on a tight budget.

I've seen some right old capers going on with people trying to weigh a decent sized fish in a landing net before. Lay the weigh sling out over your cradle/mat, unhook and zip up. Where's the stress????? I would say that a fish gets a lot more stressed hunched up in the corner of a landing net than it does by laying out on a weigh sling.....

Hello all I am ganna buy a set of nash scopes any one used them or any views on them eg what tc and the 9ft or 10ft thanks Sent from my SM-A500FU using Tapatalk

I use a cradle Phil (off the ground type) with a sling ready to go already in it . Just the case of removing the net then & your ready to go .

Good call on flotation sling, thought about getting one. Where do you guys stand on cradles/mats. As in ones that go on floor to ones that suspend the carp?? Sent from my LG-H955 using Tapatalk

The RRP's are only there so that they can legally sell at the discount price , easy to inflate (make up) an RRP when you own the brand and have enough shops to stick the item in a dark corner at the higher price for the legal period before discounting, its all legal and above board .Really surprised the general public still fall for it .

a bit late really " well no VERY LATE " not been on for a while but ive had a few (6)trips out now on the big water with the low stocks of good fish since reporting last,im feeling VERY comfortable now being back at carping but its very quiet up here now with the weather ,we had a cold spell starting a few weeks back that came in all of a sudden and even knocked a commercial ive been having the odd day on off the feed ,ive stopped the pre baiting now for this year and planning on starting again next spring when the weather warms up again ! if we should get a warm spell ill get the gear out again but now im thinking of starting on a bit of piking until spring ,on a positive note when i do start carping again ill be hitting the ground running Plenty to catch up on on here though ,all the best guys

wouldn't buy anything from that place. I do have standards, and any company that treats its workers that way no matter how cheep won't get my money. The way the thread went is sad but not unexpected, same old faces.
