  1. I made the same thing nearly 30 years ago with a pike float ... lead on bottom to keep anchor , It was like casting an angry monkey out ... rig bits spinning etc , hope its improved ,
  2. You looked at the fox warrior s 10ft ? https://www.anglingdirect.co.uk/fox-warrior-s-rods
  3. Great ... As some I was looking at only take there own brand gas capsules and I want to be able to get gas can's easily , Just ordered and only a £1 for royal mail 24 , Thanks
  4. I actually thought the link was China and don't like waiting , Just going to order that now and thank you for the link , I'm guessing the blue calorgas refill's work on this ? Thanks again Salok , Appreciate that
  5. Cheers B.C. , I did'nt know if theres something to look for on stoves that could be better than others ... apart from working , lasting and the flame
  6. This may sound a bit uncarpy but whats wrong with normal stoves in camping shop's ? , Edit : I've never owned an outdoor stove
  7. Hi SPR , That makes total sense , Thanks so much for explaining it ... now to choose it
  8. Hey Smufter , that is a luvley bivvy , the one thing that stands out as a plus is definitely the " hood " ... I dont mind admiting that sometimes I like to reel in the rods and do some float fishing , the hood would be great cover while sitting forward holding the rod , Many thanks Hey Salok , I was thinking JRC but with all Bivvys I get a bit confused , I have a look ... see the ideal " Bivvy " and then suddenly see a list of separate layers that make the shown picture , not sure if that makes sense , I've never bought one before due to this , I have added a picture of the JRC bivvy stuff ( hope it works , ) that shows the JRC defender shelter ... plus other " defender products , so ... if I bought the defender shelter like you mentioned , could I buy the defender peak bivvy wrap and throw it over the defender shelter and it fits ? , It may seem weird what I'm saying but I'm honestly clueless on things like this , Thanks Sir
  9. I have a 60" brolly but they can be awkward and with 2 of you and a few bags etc its kind of cramped and rain gets through easy , a bivvy seems more comfy
  10. Hi All , I'm really wanting to go fishing but holding back due to the cold , My health is'nt 100% so need some kind of shelter from rain and wind , I'm looking at buying a Bivvy for Me and the Fiancee to use so a 2 Man Bivvy would be ideal , I will never use it for overnight fishing so no idea if that would make a difference in what I would buy ? , One main factor would be that it opened at the front quite wide so We could both sit and see the rods , Thanks John ,
  11. Also ... if your doing a fishmeal , birdfood or milk protein boilie , Do you have to change the semolina / soya base mix to a different base mix , The other confusing thing for Me is what type of flavour do you add to the different style of boilie ... its really confusing , And this is before I've even made any I've searched the internet for info which gets confusing sometimes ... it comes up a lot with suppliers , can anyone recommend a good supplier with a good selection and rep please ? Many Thanks
  12. Thanks Everyone , good old layers still work the best by the looks of it , think I'll get some long johns and then pack a bag of jumpers etc and by some cheap waterproofs which are a size or 2 too big to allow for clothing Thanks again All ... Always helpful on here
  13. Hey BC , Am I right in thinking that dr oetker egg white powder would work as I just bought some of that , and thanks for the tip on simmering , also seens as this is a fishy boilie ... can I leave it soaking in Krill without the skin coming off the cork ball boilie , or is there a time limit on soaking boilies in liquid ? Many Thanks BC
  14. Really appreciate all the Info Hutch , So using this recipe ... Ground Trout pellet Baileys Number One Semolina Soya Flour Finely Ground Pigeon Conditioner would be classed as a fishmeal boilie due to the trout pellet ? , Also I've been searching for Pigeon Conditioner and a lot of brands come up ... do you have any brand names please Thanks Hutch
