Oh yeah

Tbf he only admitted to " knowing ways" of getting round certain rules. No mate , he knew what is coming in the Tekegraph on Friday morning. He'll be one of the 8.

Stop licking

What did I tell you lot about Allardyce ???? Now watch it all come out . This is just the beginning....

Nigel has come up with a cracking tactic there Dan , Bream are stupid and will probably fall for it Fish meal won't be helping though if your Boilies contain it .

This one ? Behr Red Carp Aluminium Rod Pod https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00D82S2FC/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_dRv5xbVTRVSDV

My pod is carbon I think so goes up (and down) nice & quietly Gaz . I can imagine those big Solar jobbies clanking away on set up Some one'll put me right on that no doubt :)

Another good reason there Phil , size , folds down nice & compact .

Oh I agree mate , I just wondered what makes people choose the pod they choose . I myself just consider a pod to be a glorified double/treble banksticks to rest yer rods on . BC above came up with versatility as the main reason why he uses what he uses . But £250 ? I could ( for a change) go out and buy one tomorrow but I'm interested in what makes people choose one pod over another ?

That's very good post BC , versatility

Yep Sallopettes a BIG feature of the aforementioned Speci suit . Proper toastie .

I did say "if you can get hold of one" They occasionally come up on EBay or somewhere like Eric's or Chapmans but I think RT may have superseded it with a newer model , so to speak . They always got rave reviews so if Ron Thompson still make winter suits the more expensive ones (which will still be reasonable) will definitely be worth a look .

Evening ladies . Pods . Lovely ain't they ? Nice shiny ones , nice Matt black ones , stainless , square ones , round ones , long ones , cheap ones , all sorts ... I myself own a TFG Crosspod and I think it's great for the money , which wasn't an awful lot tbh , and my back up in case of emergencies is a cheapo one from Argos that I bought many many years ago ... The TFG is Probably one of the best value items of " tackle " along with my STi that I ever purchased although I'm not a great fan of pods as I like to use banksticks IF I can for various reasons . And I only reach for the pod if I'm faced with a swim that has one of those damned platforms and even then I'll try to find a patch of grass next to it for my sticks if I can . However what makes a pod ? Why are some cheap as chips and some are so ridiculously expensive that it would be difficult to justify spending that much money ? What has a Jag pod got that a Solar Pid hasn't ? What difference would it make WHICH pod ? It's just a functional item to rest your rods on isn't it ? Isn't it ?

I hear the Avenue is quite easy

You can thank Messrs Levy and Hearn for that As I said the other day , don't believe what you read in the media ....

Apologies Nige , I can't even remember what I said now .

And for the dual guitar freaks

If you can get hold of one , the Ron Thompson 2 piece specimen suit is the kiddy . As its not a trendy brand it'll be less than a nifty and you'll never ever need to look elsewhere . I promise .

I hope you have previous experience with Pods Phil . I wouldn't like you to hurt anything in any way , maybe you should start off with a TFG pod or a couple of Dinsmore bank stocks before you progress to a Solar or Jag jobby ?

Is it made of Platinum ?????

That's damned big of you sir :)

It's something I've been seriously looking into (which may amaze most people on here ) albeit for NEXT year . I'd like to register my interest Rob , as there's nothing I'd like more but I'm about as reliable as West Hams defence so don't hold your breath
