I have four mk1 delk txi's and rx2004 receiver plus either 1 0r 2 original Delks (greedy I know) but they work and do what I require although remain mostly silent whilst I lake watch 😂😂 can't call it fishing anymore as I've not caught in so long....either way I love them and I'll keep them as long as they continue to work 😁

I always say mate, if your going to fish zigs, to get the best out of them; commit to them. All three rods and really work them. Set your alarm for every half hour and change one rod each time it go’s off. Be that colour (not me though), area or depth. That way, each rod is getting 90 minutes but your still actively switching things every 30. You can cover a lot of depth and areas in a day doing this.

I remember you doing a little writing on here and you mentioned black and white, it struck a cord

Cheers bud!

Yeah @Dannygooner I have a set. They're decent mate, no complaints with them whatsoever.

Agree, if I was to go back to Delks I'd go for the older model, all day.

I wonder if they command a better price in the UK or North America, I have a couple of big zip-locks full.

I don't really submerse my baits in the liquid, I pour a little onto a plate and roll the baits around the plate until their evenly coated, it's more to preserve than anything, but a little glug with added betaine isn't a bad thing. I usually do the coating twice, the glycerin hardens the baits right up

Go on eBay mate and look at the prices that they are selling for......at a guess I'd say around the £375to £425 mark but obviously would depend on condition age etc

i used to fish a stretch just out of the town center a few years ago and did quite well on maggots, boilies and luncheon meat. i parked at the hampton ferry car park and walked up the bank to the left (back toward town), the section just before the bend for a couple of hundred yards was the most prolific. i found a few holes (barbel and chubb) and a few area's of pads (carp) that were good, my pb's on that stretch were 9lb 5oz barbel, 17lb 3oz pike, 4lb 0oz chubb and 21lb 6oz common, and the biggest surprise was a 6lb 3oz golden tench. terminal tackle used was open end feeder stopped with bread and filled with mags and meat cubes with a cube topped with a couple of wrigglers on the hook and method filled with my own spicy groundbait and boilie crumb with a 10mm tight to a size 10 mugga. so as long as your not trying to break any records should be quite an eye opener
