  1. I think I would use it neat if I did slightly longer sessions but because mainly do overnighters, I've found thinning it seems to be an advantage as the fish seem to eat it quicker as they are pre washed out.
  2. I usually just chuck some in with the water tbh, I quite like the liquid to be thinner as it soaks through the bait more. I would use more than a capful, maybe like 25% hydro 25% squid brand and 50% water something like that anyway. Might be less that seems OK , you can add whatever you like though
  3. Some of the rigs people throw out are shocking tbh.
  4. Why not just use a bucket? they've never breached my ridgemonkey yet. I never leave my bait in the bivvy either. And always close my food bag, then I throw boilies in other people's bivvies works a treat 😂
  5. I've bought some prepared particle as I was too lazy to prep it myself 20kg of carp particles dark mix and some garlic oil.
  6. I once left a vape on charge and it started burning, luckily it wasn't overnight and I caught it fairly quick but could've burnt the house down.
  7. Hi mate not used these ones myself but did have a set of the old fox mini microns that worked for years and years. Sorry I can't be more help but I use Gardner atts these days.
  8. No i know, I just think everytime I mention a product I like, I then have to write a essay to justify it. 😂
  9. I haven't said it's fool proof or perfect or anything but I think it is a little safer than most other things we chuck out into the water, and I think it's a good product. I agree, I probably should just stop making suggestions.
  10. Cracking news mate, are you going to ban the magic twig on your water?
  11. I would use bigger particles and pellets probably, maize, maples and sweetcorn,
  12. A trailer with a running lead could still leave a fish attached to a long trailer, yes it might be minus the lead but the rig is directly tied to the mainline via a swivel, with the hit n run lead clip if you got the same trailer, the rig would come loose as the swivel is free of the mainline,and therefore you will only ever leave the rig attached once the line parts as the fish can move up the mainline and be free of the trailer. It is also a running rig but neater and IMO safer.
  13. With a running rig you are still going to leave a trailer attached in the event of a crack off. That's why I am now using the pb ones same benefit of a running rig, but as the fish swims off the rig with swivel will travel up the trailing line and free itself leaving only the rig in its mouth,
  14. PB products hit n run lead clips have become an essential part of my set up lately. From a safety POV, they are smashing, in the event of a crack off or cut off type incident the fish will only ever be left with the rig in its mouth and not trailing loads of line, and because it's essentially free running they can't use the weight of the lead to help eject the hook. I've had a lot of screaming takes since switching to them.
  15. Don't admit that, when I changed from a slip D back to a spinner rig after a hook pull I got loads of beef. 😬
