    Thanks for that timely input I was thinking it could be a right edge but I can't be bothered to harvest them, that takes a lot of effort and I hope it pays off for him, looks like it's back to plan 3283638 for me then 😂

    Yeah I did years ago. I used live ones, dead ones, dehydrated/dried ones.... and they were all rubbish. Imo the carp get on the (natural) snails simply because it's the easiest food source to harvest at the time. They're tuned into the food sources available in their watercourse and I don't think you can compete with that with any snails apart from those that are plucked out of the venue - so @jh92 has the right idea. Even then, there are other natural baits (maggots and worms) that will do a much better job of competing. The snail discussion comes up every few years. Lots of guys try it. Hardly anyone has any real success. Imho, snails are just not a great bait.

    Well I've been out and got around 100 snails, got a special mix on the go in the bucket 😏 tedious picking in the waders 💪🤣 I'm off to the canal tomorrow morning for a night or two. Both rods are gonna go on snails. I will update how I get on 👍

  6. Sorry, should have added that they have a rubber fitting way to do this..... Yes, despite my initial scepticism about them. I now have a pair 😀, won' have a lot of chance to try them out but they do look good. Slight critisim tho, the instructions said they were supplied with a 4 roller magnet, no it's the standard 2, also no mention of the little rubber gizmo to fix over speaker, it is fiddly but yes it does reduce the volume.... probably helps water ingress too?
