    I had a Shimano DL 6000 giving to me that was 6 months old used it twice then gave it away I was shocked at the build quality just felt so cheap… A year later my mate said I got a reel you can have it was only the same reel 😳 had been around the house is a bit Got one Elmo, nice reel around £60 here’s a comparison

    Well done Jules 👍 Forgot to say I put a fine dap of clear nail polish over the repair 👍

    That’s a bit of bad luck Easy fix if they don’t, grip the broken piece with grips heat below the eye then slide the eye away. Try it for size if it fits bit of super glue job done if it don’t a light sanding to it till it fits then glue. Iv done the same fix to a quiver tip and a sea rod 👍

    Don’t know how long the guys had been fishing in the swim before we got there.They could be innocent or if there not they could just say there was no sign. Maybe some (censored) got peed off not finding a swim and took it out on the sign. When we book again il phone up the day before and on the day to make sure all is good.

    More of a swap than a new purchase, sorted out a float rod, floats and bits and bobs for a clear window for my Tempest Brolly off a mate, he needed the gear for his son.

    The days of me seeing red has happily past but it takes some effort tho. The bailiff found the sign in a bush

    And there’s the achilles heel of the reel 😉 The specks sound good tho 👍 …..if you don’t mind me saying Elmo I would have a bit less line on the spool

    I found the LED not very bright in daylight conditions much improved with the under-lit version

    Got rained off from work today so having a sort out, found 4 korda spods which I had taped up the bottom half that was for the hemp , chops went above then a little ground bait gently pushed in to keep it tidy. Tuff work winding it back in as the spod would hold the water in.

    The Korda style spod which I used way back to get floaters out you hit the clip lower the rod and you hardly cause a ripple. It worked but there was not much of a spread ….Got to be a hell of a lot of the old spods in sheds around the country gathering dust

    Thanks for the info 👍 Been having a look on YouTube seems straightforward to use. I can see it being perfect for getting out mixes beyond catty range many’s a time you get them feeding then the breeze picks up in your face and that’s the end of that. I fancy trying out an adjustable zig with a floater at distance….it’s going to open a lot of water to go at 👍

    There’s a shallow far margin on a lake I fish that you can see the carp move along hopefully this will solved the problem of getting bait out there without spooking them.

    I was fishing last weekend when a mother and her son he must have been 12 ish turned up to fish the nx swim the wind had got up and they were struggling to hold onto the bivvy and put the pegs in, the ground was solid I popped over and between the 3 of us got it pegged down I mentioned bringing a mallet nx time, the granddad turned up late afternoon and brought them a pizza and gave me one as a thank you The gesture made up for a iffy trip 👍
