  1. Have a look at the Carpzone barrow , i had one until i went electric and couldnt fault it. http://www.carp-zone.co.uk/shop//Carp%20Barrow/
  2. Without looking , im sure thats the same net as mine , had it for years now , and unlike Nick i didnt replace the net just sowed the holes up with Braid.
  3. If its what you want get them , i would never entertain them at that price. I very rarely use sticks , i mainly just use marker elastic.
  4. That should work well , very similar to the one i own made by Solar
  5. A bit more than you may wish to spend , but its very good indeed. https://poingdestres.co.uk/carp/sacks-slings-carp-care/str-flotation-safety-weigh-sling
  6. Happy days , reading what you have said it seems as though it will be a good move .
  7. 8 swims 70 members , could be difficult , without knowing how their booking system works ,you may hardly get to fish weekends . Wasnt experienced enough !!!! they may well prefer anglers from further afield as they may only fish a couple of times a year , 70 members living on the dooorstep would not work even with a rota.
  8. Just an example , Burgess Hill to Farnham is around 50 miles so an hour and a half traveling ,gets you to more 30s and 40s than you can shake a stick at with a possibility of the odd 50 , 20s to numerous to mention, http://www.farnhamanglingsociety.com/index.php Without looking it up its around £125 inc joining fee Most of their waters are Gated so are pretty secure
  9. £60 for membership then £65 for 48hrs im sure their must be club tickets offering similar for that price or a few quid more for a year within your traveling distance.
  10. and if it does work , IT WILL KILL YOU IN YOUR BIVVY ...... you will just drift off into sleep and never wake up ,due to the carbondioxide produced , but hell you know the score so try one out with a co2 sensor.
  11. For a day session i would take nothing Summer or winter , if rain was forecast then it would be the 45 inch brolly i use whilst match fishing.
  12. FORGET THE BIVVY HEATER.......... EASIEST WAY TO KILL YOURSELF Single skin bivvy or brolly willl always condensate especially if you close the dooor , a twin skin can in most instances keep the inside dry,
  13. The same company i use , with the same deals
  14. Its big ,its heavy but it wont get pulled over and it just sits their , no forcing it into the ground. Even fishing locked up ,the rod just bends, nothing moves ever. I have to short legs for the back if needed, they are high to avoid the swans
  15. My pod is a Solar Globetrotter , stainless , the footprint it has makes it solid as a rock even fishing 90 degs, i have seen nothing out their to compete with it.
  16. Although this is a one piece, and i have used it only once ,as last winter was not cold , it seems a very good warm suit. http://www.nashtackle.co.uk/products/view/zt-arctic-all-in-one-suit

  18. With a Big pit you pick the rod up hand over the spool adjust the drag start playing fish Bait runner you pick the rod up flick a switch start playing fish, this is quicker than using a Big pit.
  19. I guess Bait runners are for Noddys and us really good mega anglers use Big pits . I have Bait runners and used many years ago, then i could not imagine ever using anything else , Big pits seemed to much faffing around , i now have Big pits and have been using them for years and now could not imagine using bait runners again. They are both as good as one another and do the same job equally as well, IMO its just personal choice.
  20. You will not regret it , good luck with your negotiations
  21. I cant emphasize enough , once you have an electric barrow you can take everything all the time
  22. My mate loves Fox ,i love Delkims , buy what you can afford and try and stear away from cheap , you will plenty of stories every where that the very cheap alarm out scored the expensive one , but they are the odd exceptions quality wins through in the end.
  23. People talk about line diameters so heres Gardeners own figures GT80+ 12Ib/0.35mm = 18lb+ 15Ib / 0.40mm HydroTuff 10Ib / 0.30 12Ib / 0.35 = 18lb+ 15Ib / 0.38 20Ib / 0.40 Pro 10Ib / 0.28 12Ib / 0.30 15Ib / 0.35 = 18lb+ XM / 0.40mm I use and have used for years Berkley Big Game @ 15lbs 0.38
  24. Sorry i have not been involved in any of the above, and i would guess many others are in the same boat as me
