  1. I love my Daiwa reels always used them for all aspects of my fishing. πŸ™‚πŸ‘
  2. Well my plans have changed, I'm joining a different club this year one I was in many years ago, but I mainly fished for pike then. This club has some nice waters, not massive carp but up to mid twenties and some good mixed fisheries as well. I just fancied somewhere different, new challenges and all that, it will be nice to fish where different.
  3. I'm with you on this one dayvid I really like my Daiwa QD'S, I don't use the clutch for the fight I usually back wind, It's for the tension on that initial run i like the QD. But we are all different.πŸ™‚πŸ‘
  4. I use a run ring on my set up and it works really well. πŸ™‚πŸ‘

  7. Has anybody got or no anybody that's got a tf gear banshee extreme bivvy and if so what do you think about them as in build quality and quality of parts and material?
  8. I went for the 20lb do you think this will be ok or shall I order some 25lb?πŸ™‚πŸ‘
  9. They are 1.35 metres high I think that will be tall enough for me, but I will check out the cyprinus also, cheers elmo.πŸ™‚πŸ‘
  10. It's actually the quest compact mk4. It's a 2019 model and it sounds a real bargain at Β£114. It also has really good reviews. πŸ™‚πŸ‘
  11. As anyone got one of the above bivvy's and are they any good?πŸ™‚πŸ‘
  12. I will get some ordered and give it a go.πŸ™‚πŸ‘
  13. Excuse my ignorance but what knots do you use when tying a chod rig and is this material easy too knot?πŸ™‚πŸ‘
  14. I've never tied chod rigs before and one of the waters I'm going to be fishing this year requires them so is this any good for the job or can anybody else recommend something else that they use.

    Same to you mate and everybody else on the forum and may we have a prosperous new year and new goals and pb's.πŸŽ£πŸ™‚πŸ‘
  16. I use a 3lb tc g50 as my marker rod and it works fine, I can feel everything though the rod no problems, I have loaded my real with braid straight through no leader and a 3oz lead it work for me, so I think you should be fine with a 2.75lb tc.πŸŽ£πŸ™‚πŸ‘
  17. Another slightly better photo.
  18. Well I went today and I took the son of a family friend along, I blanked and my fishing mate for the day not only caught he caught one of the illusive mirrors 8lb 7oz that hardly ever give there selfs up. It was a great day to be out and nice for at least one of us to catch.
  19. When are going to get out fishing next mate?πŸŽ£πŸ‘
  20. And good luck too you to mate, what ever happens it will be good to get out of the house for a few hours. πŸ˜πŸ‘
  21. Good angling mate, well done.πŸ‘ I'm going tomorrow but my results won't be like yours, bit off luck I might get one.πŸ˜πŸ‘
  22. Merry ChristmasπŸŽ… and a happy new year ladsπŸ₯³ and may you all be blessed with lots of fish.πŸŽ£πŸ˜πŸ‘
  23. Well I've decided I'm going on the 27th, my club water so one last chance for a carp in 2019.πŸŽ£πŸ˜πŸ‘
  24. I know what you mean about the smooth hound they are amazing fish they fight like no fresh water fish, my pb is 10lb and I still think about now, my best mates is 16lb and I've never seen a fight like it before or since, for there weight the are unreal. Unfortunately I don't go sea fishing anymore, enjoy it mate I used to love my sea fishing but it got a bit to much with the travelling for me.πŸŽ£πŸ™‚πŸ‘
