  1. I have a reaper , can't tell you how long the AA batteries last but can't remember thinking they needed changing to often , I think you can buy 24 Duracell + for around £8 on ebay I would be interested to hear how you get on with it , have you used it yet ?
  2. Possibly the hair was a bit long , but I feel that you were being plagued by small stuff just knocking the feeder around . It sounds like larger baits may be the way to go staying clear of small particles
  3. It sounds like there a lot of tiny fish about , some would say 4" is to long for the rig length , What were you using as bait ? How big was the hook ? And how long was the hair ?
  4. Yes , well put Dal . For me the quick link is great , it's very rare that I fish the same bait and rig for a whole session on all rods and it makes it so easy to change over
  5. I've used quick links for years now
  6. Average time a West Ham fan takes to tie their shoe laces ?
  7. The principle may be the same but if the main line breaks on a running rig the lead should be able to come off the line and all that I have ever read says the lead should be able to become free of the main line in the event of a break . Not sure chancing the fish can use the lead to get rid of the hook is a good plan .
  8. Surely if the main line breaks the fish will be towing the lead around , is that not bad?
  9. On the telly now BBC 2 if anyone's interested . Spurs v Coventry 1987 cup final highlights
  10. I take it you had the other beer
  11. Had to happen , have another beer Dal
  12. Don't know why I didn't think of this , https://howesmodels.co.uk/category/Lake%20Reaper%20Spare%20Parts I have one of the boats these are the people who sell them , I would phone them explain your problem and see if they can help
  13. That is what you got from that ? They are based in Devon I think and are not a bait company did you not find it interesting in any way shape or form ?
