  1. I'm in the middle but would've said Neen until I went to Stanwick lakes in the olden days on a carp. Com social( 3 of us in winter and it froze) 😬 now I just call it the nen when people call it the neen to be contrary 😁
  2. Would you say nen valley or Neen valley carp? 😏 Absolute stonker of a common though and an excellent write up to match, they make great reading these write ups πŸ‘ will look forward to the next one
  3. I did wonder what a fishing chair wheel was, I thought whatever will they come up with next πŸ˜‚ You could maybe have a look at car seats, maybe one of those might fit, is the other one lost or broken? Maybe a pic of the other side may help as someone may be able to see what could replace it
  4. http://www.baitbuckets.co.uk/shop/18-litre-round-camo-bucket-internal-tray/ I found this one with a tray πŸ‘
  5. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/263864572321 I did spot this whilst having. Look at buckets, you still need to buy a bucket for it but looks pretty good for what you want it for and you would have some pockets for stuff and fit should be easier to carry πŸ‘
  6. It does seem a complete rip off really 50 quid for a bucket lol, What you could do is make one πŸ€”bit of plywood on the lid some foam and a bit of material should be fairly easy and more importantly a lot less than 50 quid πŸ‘
  7. I hadn't really payed much attention to this before but I did see its rated to 25 stone, that's a pretty strong piece of furniture really, would want to try one to see if it's comfortable and practical first though I think,
  8. Funnily enough I had the avid stuff, so I also gave it a go splices nicely but didn't want to go through the eye, I used a size 4, on my travels of the interweb today I found some IB HOOKS JUNGLE ROPE 25lb spliceable hooklink braid 50m for Β£15, I've taken A Punt will let you know what it's like, they seem to do some quite cool rig bits on there site actually, worth having a look I think πŸ‘ Let me know how you get on with the ridgemonkey stuff
  9. Spliceable hooklinks? You've got me interested lol I started researching but not sure where to start who makes good ones please?
  10. Quite surprised how well a 10x15mm proper job is holding that lot up, perfect for bag rig pop ups, I think this combo may work even better with a bigger hookbait too
  11. Looks better I think πŸ‘
  12. BMG do a krank chod hook which I happen to have a packet of 😁 I will try and knock one up later on if I can the out turned eye may improve on your rig , I may have a curve type hook too πŸ€”πŸ˜‰
  13. I used 5000 emcast evos and found them OK, depends what you want to spend really
  14. Unfortunately that's true, you can't catch em all πŸ˜•
  15. That must've been a tough call to make, but another good decision, I found a few dead ones last year and it does make it tough, do you know what the cause of death was?
  16. That is an absolute stunner and a great story to boot, excellent stuff
  17. Will have a look into it I have some curve shanks in my hook collection πŸ˜‚ I found a good way make it easy to thread as well the fox easy splice needle, because it's so thin goes through hooks, aligners and small rings with ease I didn't get on with it splicing but I've found a good use for it now 😁
  18. The pva bag rig I was using started to annoy me tonight I really want to use bait screws but d rig aligner says no, or maybe yes but I will annoy you first so back and be faffy, so back with a fresh twist uncoated braid, tungsten aligned multi rig, that will do for now 😁
  19. I did that last year too the littlun bought one home From school and I didn't have any bamboo, mine wasn't just a Nash one it was a broken Nash one 😁
  20. Not that I am aware of sadly 😁
  21. I used my spod rod at my last daughters birthday, I sat on the stage like a knome with a pinata tied to it while the kids whacked the hell out of it 😁
  22. Great read yonny and some great fish too excellent stuff, hope there are more installments to come πŸ‘
  23. Don't you have then reel the dog in though to get it to come back πŸ˜‚
  24. I still haven't found the time to go through it once yet 😭 I need to respool all my lines and everything, I have just bought a spooler and d spool drill attachment, the thought of another manual despool was too much, I think that may be why I have been putting it off πŸ˜‚
  25. 0 No i know but from my understanding changing the wheel is still the only way to adjust the sensitivity? IE 4 magnet to 2 magnet would make it less sensitive
