    Not a purchase as such more of an apology and gift. Back a couple of weeks it was an air dry your bait at work day. So I did but unbeknown to me the housekeeper on the job I was working at was feeding the baby seagulls from the bedroom window i was decorating with my bait 😳 laughing she apologised today and gave me two bags of homemade frozen bait and a tub of corresponding cork pop-ups. Her son is a Carp angler who belongs to 3 syndicates he gave them to me as as an apology for what his mum had done.
  5. Didn’t Dave Lane use a type of sling, it took two men to use it to get baits out where baits had never gone before i think I read it in one of his earlier books 🤔

    I can recommend the okuma 6000 inc great line lay, nice size spool, good drag and around £60 got a 5year warranty. I use them with esp 10 rods

    It’s crazy how they keep their prices…I use a set of 3 for years really abuse them on horseshoe dragging lots of weed in. If you can have a play with them give them a spin check the spools got no nicks on them …talking of spools I should have a spool or two handy if you get the reels.

  13. Narr don’t like the set up… way to tidy for me 😉 il take a pic nx time of the inside of me den gets petty messy. Best of luck 🤞
  14. How far are anglers prepared to go in pursuit of a carp ??… Send a drone up to spot the carp locate them then send the bait boat out with a rig all the while looking at your phone or tablet at the fish then when the boat draws near just drop the rig If I seen that going on at a lake I was fishing Il have to pack away and wouldn’t go back.
  15. Best of luck…here’s some viewing to give you nightmares..

  21. On the subject of braid I use Berkeley whiplash in 0.8mm = 28lb straight through green in colour which fades over time it’s got a round profile which back in the day it never did have never used a shock leader with braid. Always wetted the line and reeled in with the tip sunk underwater if I was able.
