It's chilly here but I'm sweating as I just moved swims. Hate moving in the dark, especially this time of year. The sweat will be freezing to my sack before I know it.....
-
I bet, looks good for this time of year, good luck.

Anybody have a opinion on these lines?

Both very, very good lines mate. The Pro is an all-rounder, the Hydro Tuff is more of a snag line. -
Yeah I learned that lesson the hard way too lol.....
-
Yeah that's the ones I use, no complaints at all, they've been great.

Does anybody use JAG "Safeliner" bobbins????......
yonny replied to smufter's topic in Carp Fishing Tackle and Equipment
I managed to find a buyer for mine a couple of months ago but found I'd misplaced them. Looked everywhere, no idea where I put them. More than a hundred quids worth, lost..... not best pleased with that.... -
Yeah @Dannygooner I have a set. They're decent mate, no complaints with them whatsoever.
-
Have a look at the 'Oldskool toys Trading Post' on FB @greekskii. They come up regularly.

Agree, if I was to go back to Delks I'd go for the older model, all day.
-
I know mate, couldn't believe it. Sold an old Armo for 180 odd quid too, nigh on paid for my SS3000's between them. Result! Edit: I only paid 250 quid for the Delks 4 years ago as well!!!!!
-
It's a sellers market lads..... I recently sold a set of 3 with receiver on the bay for £360.....

Fill it in man! Whack a gallon in there! I have caught for some very, very tricky fish in my time and most have been tripped up on size 4's.
-
Love it mate..... so you've had to sack off work to go fishing and it's your Mrs' fault!! Top work Vik! Note to self: must try this one!
-
What qty bud? Pffftttt..... he's clutching at straws there I reckon bud. I never scale down, even for winter.... it just means you're more likely to lose the fish when you finally get that hard earned bite!!!!

What camera is it @Gazlaaar?

The best tenner you'll ever spend if you do self takes!!!!!!

Love that feeling when you sit back knowing there's nowt else you can do and you're on them!!!
-
Then you're half way there buddy. Good luck!

Get on YouTube buddy , you'll learn more than we can explain on here in half the time. Video yourself casting to see what you're doing right and what you're doing wrong. If you're worried about cracking off you'll lose a lot of distance Mate, you really need the confidence to hit it.

yonny replied to smufter's topic in Carp Fishing Tackle and Equipment
I have a set of the black ones. They're brilliant for slack line/close in work, not so good for distance or tight line angling. Can't answer your question about the isotopes as I fitted normal ones in mine by placing them in cut down clear PVC tubing to increase their diameter to fill the void in the bobbins. -
Yup..... I only just replaced mine this year after several years of use..... with the Lo Pro, which is miles quicker, check it out if you fancy a change. Minute and a half to put up, 50 seconds to pack down, just over a kilo lighter then the MK1 Supa. Really recommend it.

@finchey They're bringing out a system version this November, it's called the ESP Hideout, looks very good indeed. Defo worth checking out bud.
-
Hi finchey.... I haven't used it in winter but will do so this year. I did do one majorly wet session a few weeks ago and it was the first time I've felt it was a little pokey.... it's based on a 50 inch umbrella so isn't massive. I used it in BIG winds this week just gone and it was fine, although I did fit a single storm pole to give it a helping hand. I'd say you need to be dedicated to use it in winter. It's more of a summer shelter IMO.

I mess about with all sorts from time to time but I would honestly be more than happy if I was forced to use just the hsr for the rest of my life.
