£399.99...😱😱😱

You'll probably be the 1st on here with 1...have to give us a review on em...probably be another spod/spomb soon ready for spring (Korda or Fox will be in it).

They do look good...but since the Nash Claw came out...ive never looked back...jus love em...

Made from high grade Japanese wire, the key improvement has been the introduction of a series of minute horizontal grooves on the inside of the specially designed arrow shaped hook point, where historically the barb would have been. These grooves allow the hook to hold securely in the fish’s mouth when pressure is applied, as the flesh presses into the grooves resulting in a firm hook hold with no slippage. As soon as the pressure is removed the hook returns to a barbless format allowing for easy and safe removal. Simple but so very effective. £5 for 10 hooks...not bad

Save you some pennys that also...if you have enoigh hooks that is...

I think i only sleep n hour or 2 always clothed in sleeping bag...or try a hotwater bottle. Didnt mean asleep...just to take chill off inside...5 mins or so. But never leave it inside...after use i leave it outside to cool down and always take the gas cannister out/off...

Had a go at the Ronnie Rig...have the Gardener 1's already pre made... So had a go myself but with the Nash Claw (love these hooks)..only thing is nowere had any uni swivels so used quick link swivels...still not too bad.

I would never leave a stove or anything alight while sleeping...fair enough while your in it (with ventilation). VERY lucky to tell the tale...

I remember a story a few years back... On Tuesday, 15th March 2016.Nicky Cliffe was fishing his local lake when at around 11pm someone decided to pour petrol over his bivvy and set it on fire whilst he was inside, luckily his son wasn't fishing with him on this occasion but he often does and thankfully he managed to get away unharmed. Unfortunately the same cannot be said about his bivvy, bed, luggage, terminal tackle etc, etc as they were all destroyed by the fire (pic shows what's left of his bed 😔). All he has left are his rods, reels and alarms that were by the waters edge. remains are similar in a photo but wont let me put it on.

http://www.tacklebox.co.uk/tackle-box-line-test.html#/cmsPage/32 Have a look at this...i think Yonny(🤔) put this in a while ago...this helped me alot for my new lines...breaking strain..diameter Between ESP syncro and Diawa sensor clear....i went with the latter.

Im hoping before im 40 ......within 9 years.

Can not fault any of this.... when the kid id older and less dependent on me ... a trip to France. A week of fishing must be blooming lovely! Only 1 kid me...

At the start of spring a few days sessions (6-8 hrs) then summer do 24hrs with 1 or 2 48hrs planned (this is when i bring my son) Autumn back to 1 or 2 24 hrs then day sessions agagin until November (ish)...lucky this year as it is a mild winter.

Im out tomoz...to the lake i was at last week...hopefully a capture this time 🤞🤞

My Sonik Rod in for repair (Finally) tomorrow...Tony Kay Custom Rods in Wigan...take off old eye and replace with new one from Sonik....£10 Only been waiting since November (ish)
