  1. Then this lot in an ngt glug pot bag Which also houses this And that is all my bits other than a rig wallet and it fits in my rucksack with space to spare 😁
  2. First off I got 2 ngt lead bags one for pva bits and one for leads, markers and other toot that is still messy from lto 😁
  3. For me I think I am now pretty organised 😁
  4. I never did show the conclusion I came to regarding this thread will take some pics in the morning, 👍
  5. And that's the bits you still use 😁
  6. Used there website, quite easy really, I found it easier to use a rod tube If you have one spare, all you need to do is print off the address label
  7. Good luck dayvid and well done so far
  8. Ups are who i last used about 18 quid I think and they collect from your house
  9. I have no issue with his reasoning for doing it, but fancy shooting it in front of people that's a bit silly isn't it?
  10. I like it tbh it seems a nice easy driving car with loads of space, hopefully will be an easy no hassle motor🚘🚙🚙👍
  11. https://gardnertackle.co.uk/product/pva-baggit/ I use one of these Gardner baggit butt plugs, there is a little bit to store your lead while you load it very handy 👍
  12. After the titan I don't either 😁
  13. I've upgraded to a proper old man family car today a Ford grand c max 🚙👵😆
  14. There 24 hour ebay auctions are Bob on for a bargain 👍
  15. Yep that's it, I don't mind spending more on the more important bits tbh somethings aren't worth scrimping on but a lot of things are 😂 But my cyprinus bunker and wrap is hands down the best bivvy I've ever owned tbh and for 92 quid new with wrap, it was as cheap as chips even got some cheesy peas 😁
  16. I'm more a Lidl 57 😁 Sonik shimano and diawa reels Rods Wychwood, greys, fox Cyprinus brolly and bivvy and stinky winky Nash titan Cyprinus bed and bag Ngt luggage Load of other bits from cygnet, esp, korda, fox, sonik, bank tackle, BMG castaway pva, ridgemonkey and various others I cant remember I tend to go through phases with my tackle items I think, at the moment I do love my cyprinus bits, luggage ngt stuff does a good enough job for me, my rucksack is now well organised thanks to some bargain purchases, basically I am David Dickenson,😁
  17. This is my simple pva bag rig, I may just blob a bit of putty below the hook and also a little sliver over the back knot of the loop but it's nothing fancy tbh, just some esp sink link a hook with a d rig aligner on it and hook swivel or bait screw to attach the bait,
  18. I think as an alarm they are great nice and sensitive when you need it, give good indication and work, I do find battery life is a bit pants though, but I just keep a load of spares in my bag for when they start beeping, I do think low quality batteries drain a lot faster, I got some amazon industrials last time and they seem to hold up a bit better, but they handle all weather, if I could be bothered I would remove the batteries after each session but generally I am in a rush and forget 😁
  19. Should be a bit better now for you either way I would think, the new road is pretty decent as long as there are no closures but they are hoping to have it finished this year so hopefully it will be OK
  20. That's a bit of a chicken /egg scenario I can't decide if it's lack of sleep that causes the overthinking, or the overthinking that causes the lack of sleep, going to have to Mull that one over for a while 😁
  21. Now you know so it's OK, doesn't hurt to ask if you aren't sure, I am also a terrible over thinker, I was really bad for most of last year tbh 😁 This year I have a plan and I will make it work 😁👍
  22. Just keep an eye on traffic reports though lots of road closures and detours at the moment
  23. For us locals it's a right pain in the buttocks but once done it should be pretty good other than if you are me where it will make no difference as they haven't put a south bound exit where it would benefit me Are you coming from the north that seems loads better tbh? No more stopping at Huntingdon either flyover built working well not sure where you get off for st Ives now as there is a new road in place but I am sure there will be an exit for it somewhere
  24. Interesting question and I can only guess but my assumption would be that the impact on the water would take a lot of the angle out of the bait and it would fall fairly straight from where it landed as long as they go up then down I guess if you fired it straight down at the marker it may go further underwater, just do what I do and don't be too accurate then you will have a spread around 😁 Another factor would be topspin or back spin, I am pretty sure a throwing stick will give you back spin which would mean your bait virtually stops dead on impact but unsure if a boilie spins out of a Pult 😁
  25. Just saw this on fb and thought it was near some of you from oop norf dunno if it's of anyone's interest but thought I would share it anyway http://www.improveyourfishing.co.uk/Kids-Weekend-Fishing-Club/53/
