    Years ago I had my Greys Prodigies converted to full cork handles. It wasn't cheap! Ian

    Was a time when I always had at least one tin of Bacon Grill in my bait bag. I'm going back to that time cos I'd almost forgotten just how good a bait it is. Haven't used it for ages, that's going to change! Ian.

    I have three of the 4000 Regal BRi's. Cracking reels and barely any larger than the 2500's. I find them good on rods short or long, great for trotting a float downstream or fishing the close margin with shorter rods. Ian.

    The River Tame, North Warwickshire, is the lowest I can remember it being. Ian.

    I was saddened to see that fish hauled out without the use of a landing net. On the strength of that I wouldn't consider buying the contraption. Ian.

    ESP Synchro for me and well pleased with it. It knots nicely and sinks well. Ian.

    I've read everything available and assume that some stuff has been deleted. Always a shame to lose any member, let alone one with obvious enthusiasm. Alan and I are fine, mate. Mad busy with the wrought ironwork and disappointed that our trip to Lac du Menhir in July isn't going to happen Stay safe. Ian.

    I've just had a Google look at the venue. It's a series of reservoirs which are pretty much exposed to the elements and look rather daunting to me. I'd suggest that you find a smaller, more intimate, water to fish whilst you're establishing a learning curve. Good luck. Ian.

    Only just encountered this thread and know absolutely nothing about it. I must pay more attention! Ian.

    Another almost forgotten trick is to fill the air-space beneath your bedchair to prevent a cold aura from the ground. Anything not immediately required will do. Bivvy bag, luggage, holdall etc. It works, trust me. Ian.

    My nephew runs a fleet of 5 of these for his building/roofing business. He describes them as reliable workhorses as long as serviced regularly. He, my son and myself went to Windmill Lakes, France in one of them last summer. No problems whatsoever. I was impressed how fuel efficient it was. Ian.

    I like a happy ending. Ian.

    Great picture, even better sense of humour. Ian.

    I enjoyed that. Thanks GP. Ian.

    I can't believe that any significant weight would be saved but I'm liking the notion of a much firmer bedchair. I feel a few experiments coming on. First will be to insert several cable ties in amongst the existing elastic. Ian.

    Tandem bait boat? Ian.

    I've had to cancel a week at Lac du Menhir with my son and nephew, supposed to on there 19th July. Fortunately the owner will honour or booking as a transfer to next year, same deposit. Ian.

    That's the one! Ian.
  22. welder
    It would seem so. Hey ho, we're back at it! Ian.

    Are you guys using phones to access the forum? I'm on a PC and have had full access but there has been no traffic at all. It was all a bit odd...………. Ian.

    That's exactly what I did when I sent a set of three rods to a pal of mine. The tubes were what the carpet grip bars are sent in and the shop owner was glad to be rid of them. When I'd secured each rod in it's own tube I taped all three tubes together to be sure they all travelled as a "unit". As there's a UPS depot just round the corner from my business unit I dropped the package to them. They were delivered almost exactly 24 hours later. Ian.

    There's no problem with this post as it's only about sales elsewhere. I agree that UPS are probably the best to use in this case. Ian.
