Thanks. Looking at either Fox EOS 42" Landing Net or Sonik Vader X Landing Nets. Go outdoors seem to have the following at a good price https://www.gooutdoors.co.uk/15904454/sonik-vaderx-landing-net-42-15904454 Would that be suitable?

Can anyone recommend a good butt grip for the Daiwa Black Widow G50 Carp Rods. I believe they have a 50mm Aluminium butt cap?

Morning all, Can anyone recommend a good landing net/pole and unhooking mat? Just starting out, but would like something that will last. Low/Medium budget.

Thanks, really appreciate it. Is the below OK? I would use the line and use a Palomar knot to either a Kora Swivel / QC Swivel Size 8 or Drennan Run Ring. This would then clip on to 1 side of my Hybrid clip. On the other side of the clip the ready tied rigs would clip on. Then the weigh attaches to the Hybrid clip. Bait up and I am ready to go?

Great, thank you. Much appreciated. Do I have the right idea with my line setup (Q2)?

Hi, I am new to the forum and was looking for some advice. I did a lot of course/match fishing around 20 years ago, but want to start fishing again and give carp fishing a try. Have done some research and am looking at the following initial setup. • Daiwa Black Widow G50 Rod (12ft / Test Curve 2.75lb) • Shimano Baitrunner ST RB Reel (1000RB) • Gardner GT-HD Mono Line 15/18lb line • Leeda Roque 3 in 1 Rod Pod + Carry Case • Nash Siren R3 Alarm • Bash Bobbin Kit • Korda QC Hybrid Lead Clips • Korda Square Pear Swivel Lead (2oz & 3oz) • Korda NEW Ready Tied DF Carp Rigs Size 8 Barbless Pack of 5 • Korda NEW Ready Tied DF Carp Rigs Size 10 Barbless Pack of 5 Q1 - Initial question is, does that sound like a sensible setup? Appreciate everyone will have different ideas and personal favorites, but wanted to check I am not going down the wrong path or missing something major. Q2 - Additionally, just wanted to confirm I have understood the line setup. In the setup above I would use the line and use a Palomar knot to either a Kora Swivel / QC Swivel Size 8 or Drennan Run Ring. This would then clip on to 1 side of my Hybrid clip. On the other side of the clip the ready tied rigs would clip on. Then the weigh attaches to the Hybrid clip. Bait up and I am ready to go? Is that the case or have I missed something or using the wrong tackle? Appreciate and help and comments.
