I am assuming not many (any) waters have these now? If there are they are deff under the radar now I suspect. I did have the pleasure of catching some of the beauties back in the day from Horseshoe 😀👍 Apparently this guy is still trying to keep the strain going: https://www.leneycarp.com/ Does it matter? probably not tbh, but fair play to the bloke 👍

Just fork out £20 for a tub of magic beans mate..... all your worries will be over! 😂

Too many adverts on this, think it was filmed on Bury Hill Bonds lake.... awfull place but the guy proves his point.... maybe:

This guy got loads of abuse back in the day for apparently fishing in an 'out of bounds; area, not sure that was true, maybe jealousy from others I suspect. I had left fishing it when this was made. From memory he also claimed to be one of the first to use a method feeder on there, I know that is not true. Anyway, a good bit of stalking on a big pit at the time.

Part two:

Used to have these on VHS. In his prime was a bit of a lad, but lot's of great info from his first 3 books. Remember meeting him at a Carp Society slide show and talk many years ago, then went outside for a demo of his air powered boilie cannon thing 😀 Part one: Part two: No copyright infringement intended but think some of a certain age might like this ?

Ignore this link, hopefully I have reposted this as a 'proper link' now and also added a topic title. ****** Mods feel free to delete this topic ******

Thanks for doing that mate 👍. Unfortunatly I make a complete 'dogs dinner' about my links recently, should improve in the future now. Not sure if any mods can do this, but maybe remove my post in the YouTube section and I can replace it with a topic with a proper heading and hopefully a proper link this time! 😃

Ignore that, it doesn't work on here...... Not a fan of AI, but google search for COG link displayed this; The Korda COG (Center of Gravity) lead system is a carp fishing setup designed for superior hooking by aligning the hook link with the lead's center of gravity, improving weight transfer for instant bite indication, and offering lead ejection like a standard lead clip. Setup involves using a specific COG lead with a matching Korda Boom and Lead Clip, attaching your hook link to the boom's swivel, and securing it with a pin for a fixed, highly effective bolt rig, or removing the pin for a running setup, using silicone tubing to cover and control retention.

Sorry can't do a proper link without a big URL on here

Once again no criticism, but yes been around for years, good luck to the young lad for making it work for him tho. https://www.google.com/search?q=cog+lead+system+setup&oq=cog+lead&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUqBwgDEAAYgAQyBwgAEAAYgAQyCQgBEEUYORiABDIHCAIQABiABDIHCAMQABiABDIHCAQQABiABDIICAUQABgWGB4yCAgGEAAYFhgeMggIBxAAGBYYHjIICAgQABgWGB4yCAgJEAAYFhge0gEJODQ1MmowajE1qAIIsAIB8QXqvXa12FGS1A&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#fpstate=ive&vld=cid:eabc2f0f,vid:jnDDa9fka6w,st:0

A great idea, maybe a place to post links that are not 'so well known' on there? Think we all know about the usual tackle sponsored ones by now 😃 I did start another post on here about the Rod race YouTube channel, hopefully people will post links to more stuff on the new topic 👍

Not sure if this is the right section to add this but.... Many over a certain age will remember the original series, it's now on YouTube with a new series and they have their own channel. I have watched the first two episodes and have to say I really enjoyed it, so refreshing to not hear some bloke banging on about big carp captures, which in my opinion has been done to death. I am no way associated with the channel, but if you want a break from the usual stuff, maybe give it a try?
