I've started using the Nash Claw as my go to hook now for everything, Size 6... But I've found that the Westlake Kickers are pretty much the best ones I've had.... So i now use the Korda Spinner Ring Swivel, Nash Claw Size 7, covered with the Westlake kickers (Snug), Bank Tackle Bait Screw & Hook Bead. I use these for all my rigs Pop Up, Wafter & Bottom.

Welllll.....The Day has come.....RAC has just towed me home.... Any 1 if not a few of these below Alternator Belt....Turbo is declining...Air/Fuel Leak / Supply System....vacuum leak from one of the small hoses around the engine's air intake....Compressor Pressure....Cooling system, a leaking exhaust system, a faulty hose... Scrap Yard here it comes.....

Same as you, around Christmas 2020, I was dog rough for about 2/3 weeks, before anything really kicked off, treated it as a cold/flu, but still had to work as our place don't pay sick pay, you can only self cert, you loose your 1st 3 days of sick. But since then, I've decided to be outside more, even in winter, taking dog out more, fishing, walking, even now yping this I'm sat in garden. I've had all the relevant jabs, as wife says so with being in the NHS on the frontline. But (touch wood) nothing really of a cold since then....don't take any vitamins, paracetamol or any painkillers, just keep my fluids up and (try) to eat decently.

We've all been told to treat it as a cold, but if you want to test you can, no enforcement for us, but have to wear a mask if positive and want to work. Wife has all procedures still in force at the Hospital, test every other day, wear ppe, 5 day isolation if positive, return to work after 2 negative tests.

Don't know what happened there 😬😬🙄🙄

I've managed to sort of fix it... I've taken the black bit off the spring, I've crimped some Trace wire through the spring, threaded on the black middle tail, onto of that a thick tail rubber, and crimped a swivel....then fully covered the lot with some tight silicone from the electricans doing some work next door 😁 The Float has been put back inside under the wires. A Mate is also giving me another red spomb at work later....

A mate gave me a spomb yesterday, but the tail has snapped, is there anyway of salvaging this....quick link or something?

another mate made a pillow from old bivvy fabric and used memory foam...

Exactly same, I did that n comfier than mi own bed.

I'd be well tinkering about with all this, saving the bungees n that......a mates mother would use the material from.under the bed and she can make gas cannister & alarm covers.

Exactly what I do pal, I go local Go Outdoors for my lads maggots £1 a pint... 1 rod on the silvers/perch....1 rod on carp setup.... There's 1 lake we've been every year and we have a "Rudd off".

Trkker tempest or Sonik Axs will be next???..

I had an older Fox Super Brolly, did exactly the same, rusted inside but outside was immaculate.

Literally looking at the Competition model now...

Quick question guys.... Ink the saying "Buy cheap,Buy twice" but has anyone every bought the cheaper Spombs of the Bay of E ? £12 for an actual Spomb or £10 for 3 off Internet "Buy 2 get 1 free" I just don't like the Fox Spomb at all I'm using, and want a proper Spomb....the Fox 1 is brand new.

How's it going elmo ?

Keep us posted Elmo 👍
