I've actually tried a couple of spare spools that I have and they are the same. Do you mean the washers on the shaft? They do seem to be pretty well greased up already, the reels aren't that old, they are out of warranty though. Thanks for your reply. 🙂👍

How's it going elmo any luck?🙂👍

I was wondering if one of you knowledgeable lads can help me out. I've got a problem with one of my Daiwa crosscast 5000 qda reels. I reversed the line on the spools today instead of changing it all, I soaked the spools in water for 20 minutes and then just wound the line onto the spare spool. The first one was fine, when I did the second one exactly the same procedure I come to put the spool back on the reel and the qd isn't working properly, it does loosen but it isn't free running as it should be 😥. Anybody got any ideas to what it could be? Thanks Keith. 🙂👍

Esp barrel bobbins, excellent bobbins, 2 length of chains, 2 different types of line clips and adjustable weights. I've been using these for around three years now, as i said these are excellent bobbins imo. 🙂👍 Just released you wanted hangers not bobbins. 🤪

This is also my choice of line for my carp fishing in 15lb. I used diawa sensor brown 15lb for years and then I read about the pro on here some were and thought I'd give it a try and imo I think it's excellent line, it covers everything i need in my fishing.🙂👍

That is correct my friend, I remember it well from my miss spent youth as a punk.😂😂 But they weren't half good times.😁👍

I'm afraid not mate but i will next time I use it, when ever that's going to be. I will say one thing though i was surprised how much room there was more than I'd imagined. 🙂👍

This was my first overnighter in March this year, I was planning plenty more this year but I don't no when that's going to happen now. ☹

I feel for you mate it's them cheap barrrow's. Mine clasped shortly after this photo. 😥

You and me both mate I had to Google it, I didn't have a clue what the joke was. 🤣😂🤣

I don't actually measure the size of the loop I make just big enough to fit over the hook, it's just trial and era with me because if I use the rig for a pop up I like it pop up as short as I can get it. I hope this helps you Crusian.🙂👍

The answer to your question is yes 20's if I'm lucky but usually doubles. I find these rigs so easy to tie, the hardest part for me is getting the loop for the hook the right size apart from that there a doddle. 🙂👍

And forgot to mention there always hooked bang in the middle of the bottom lip. 🙂👍

I've been using the multi rig for around 12 months now and I've always used a curve shank hook with it and always a bank tackle size 6, up to now I don't think I've lost a fish in all that time. I'm 100% confident in this rig I use it for bottom baits, pop ups and wafters. A massive bonus for me is that it is so quick and easy to tie. 🙂👍

Lovely fish mate well done.🙂👍

When you fish up north you need to carry one with you too dry your gear out because it rains so much. 🤣😂

Well done any photo's for us to look at paul? 🙂👍

You do know this thread is almost 13 years old. 😂

How did you get on mate any luck? 🙂👍

Do you do in camo 🤣

Lovely teeth do you brush them? 😁

Nothing to serious it's just my hip really, don't really want any time of work, more bothered about my fishing than anything else. ☹

I should of been going fishing tomorrow only my second trip to my new club water, I've been so busy at work with this bad weather it's messed all my plans up. So I was really looking forward to tomorrow everything sorted, some new pop ups and glugs to try out and guess what I've only gone and fallen down the stairs this morning top to bottom. blooming stupid dog only went and left a toy on the stairs in the night and blooming stupid me slipped on it. I'm struggling to walk never mind fish, I'm absolutely gutted. 😭😭. Looking on the bright side I'm hopefully doing my first over nighter next weekend Sunday till Monday, maybe till Tuesday if I'm lucky. 😁🤞

Saber also do a carbon fibre 2 piece handle with one of there nets.🙂👍

Why don't you get yourself one of these elmo.😂🤣😂
