  1. 50mm ringing will (I know this naughty word is banned but I decided to use it any way because I can't control myself) ip the rods action unless perhaps you use titanium. Slave klones and drones follow trends.
  2. It's cod roe. Nowt special, but maybe it works for you?
  3. Just buy a party pack, more than enough for a session, handful is enough most times and I used thrn singly on one water a got 3 large fish on the same bait that I'd fug out the bottom of my bag.
  4. I appreciate your response but I'm after a normal chair for sitting on during the day and the usual stuff we do inbetween takes.
  5. My Chub chair gives me the gyp. Any recommendations for one that supports the spine properly? I spend more time on my [censored] than anything else and cost isn't an issue. This is no good..
  6. Sorry, my error,I got the pro logic 9' rods I got a TFG 10' holdall and no problems.
  7. That Scientology place used to belong to founder L Ron Hubbard . I worked there a couple of years back. There's a climate of control and intimidation about the 'volunteers' there but the pond is far enough away from the manor house to afford some seclusion. Most of the slaves are too busy doing their thing to bother you. There's an aura of gloom over it all.
  8. It does seem odd that there is a facility to change handle sides but it's not practicable. I wonder if it's a defect from manufacture, you should contact Shimano and ask them what the story is.
  9. Very few for sure. I think Bayer are one of them. Same [censored], different colour.
  10. You could just as easily add Fox, Nash,Rigmarole and of kourse, KKKKKorda to that. Most companies rebadge line from the very few line makers worldwide. It doesn't matter to me if RM only make (sorry,rebadge) sandwich toasters, or jaffles as they were called before, or churn out other tackle. Berkeley are the only company I can think of who specialise in mono.
  11. Is that a place out past Dorking way? I ask because I stopped off at a pub in that area and the landlord told me about somewhere very similar and gave me a phone number. I called, got some vaguely encouraging response but nothing ever came of it.
  12. If you do go for Vass you'll need to kit yourself out with a short back and sides, beard and a chunky knit sweater. Gotta fit in with the hive mind.
  13. You can buy aligners under various names but you might as well just buy a length of shrink tube from online and make your own, it'll be cheaper. http://www.heatshrink-online.co.uk/heatshrink/
  14. Easy to do: get fine braid, I use Kryston Samson hair braid just thread through the eye and then whip it back down the shank and then half hitch the tag end back up the shank, You could glue it if you feel better but I don't. Then knotless knot your nylon over the hair and that tension is enough to hold everything in place. Just pull it all tight first.
  15. Bait screws, basically picture framers screw eyes, I wrote about it on Cemtex forum to use on D rigs etc. Lo and behold Rigmarole brought out their carpy version. I'm not sure I was the first to think of it but they were the first to market it. Dang.
  16. Didn't Peter Mohan control the rights? Try contacting him via the carp society.
  17. You take your chances with kit like this. It could well be excellent but I'd look for budget Fox just for the security of knowing they just work. You could always add AttX dangles and reliever later. Dunno, your choice.
  18. You should try the CCG forums although you might need to be a paid up member to post/gain access. £18 per year
  19. I understand about personal preference and confidence but clear works for me,I would even try red maybe yellow on a runs water too.
  20. They probably buy it by the kilometre on special order.
  21. Well there you go. I personally haven't dealt with either and have no experience of international postage from these people but I would expect them to be good. A long as you'r happy with the price and are certain they will post to you then go for it. Fox reels used to be a little bit, rubbish at first but I understand they have got quite a lot better. I'd still go for Shimano because I use them all the time-I have 11 in total. Is it £100 for two reels or 1 reel? http://www.tedcarter.co.uk/shimano/shimano-baitrunner-oc-reels These might be what you like. But I can't say much about them. I think reels are more important than rods. Anyone can get away with a cheap rod, it's the reels that do most of the hard work.
  22. Yeah, it's probably about as smooth running as your old Soviet hairdryer as well. I'd go for something more modern rather than a nostalgia cult show. http://www.ericsangling.co.uk/index.php/catalogsearch/result/?cat=&q=shimano+baitrunner These normally offer good prices, the biggest problem you'll find is shipping to Russia as many don't do that. have you looked at German OR French web shops? They might ship to Russia....
