  1. Not sure how tall you are but check the height is OK if it's a compact? They seem to be getting shorter these days and I can't bend like I used toπŸ˜‚ Have a look at cyprinus too they often have some good deals about
  2. 5hanks for the reply I've always found my rigs got tangled in my current rig wallet when I've tried this , it is about 20 years old and with big pegs so it's done OK, I just think if I the tracker works like i think it will its a good fit into my tackle bag , I want to have fresh rigs ready to go when I get to the lake, I decided I want to use HSR for my pop ups this year so with this one they should be ready to bait and chuck out with no messing I can also use the other end for my other rig so I can be fully prepared, and better organised
  3. Oops I found a bargain one on ebay £14.99 fast n free just had to have it 😁
  4. Hi all Looking at the tracker nxg stiff rig wallet does anyone use one? It looks a very good thing as you can store Hinged stiff rigs perfectly in it as it has the rounded bits for the chod section, I was looking because I wanted a long rig wallet for my wafter rigs but as I also want to use HSR for my pop ups this year looks perfect, Does anyone use one or can anyone recommend me something else that will work just as well? its a lot of money for a rig wallet and I don't like wasting money if its no good Thanks Elmo
  5. I would think a lot might be to do with water tempersture as well as the shallow part will warm up quicker and the fish will go there to warm up, i guess the shallows will make other creatures drawn to the heat, might be worth trickling a bit of bait in you may find they keep coming back, not sure where you are but it doesn't seem that cold at the moment and it hasn't really been cold for that long yet so they might still be fairly active if they are being fed, also if they are younger fish they will probably eat more as there metabolism will work faster than the older carp so they may have more energy to burn (Simon Scott mentioned that in this months carp cast) Good luck
  6. Hopefully just poorly looked after goldfish that the owners thought they may have a better life getting eaten by pike or heron or something, if they weren't looked after in the tank getting put in a lake wouldn't do them any good, There is a probably a goldfish website that may show there types of illness you may be able to work it out from that
  7. Not really I quite like the look of there square pattern ones and the CSR and I quite like the look of the curve long shanks (but I have trig Hammers to try and they look lovely ) Those round krank type ones still look a bit futuristic for me 😁
  8. I work with a guy who's on the cawcutts syndicate he loves it and has caught some pretty nice fish tbh
  9. Have you watched the free cryptography interview with Danny Fairbrass yet? I enjoyed that tbh, I liked how he runs korda, I wish more companies were like that where the boss doesn't hide away in his ivory tower, the more I see of him the more I like him tbh
  10. That's probably not a bad way to think really, and actually I might try and take that on board this year, it's good to support your local tackle shops
  11. This is true tbh we are quite lucky these days, you can usually find something that may help your own angling on you tube Still don't like fish kissing though πŸ˜‚ And actually I find also that Mark Pitchers is very watchable tbh, he is natural on the camera and funny, and also quite enjoy the challenges as it's something different, and not serious all the time, shows that fishing can be fun Also I was in my hay day in the 1990's and spent quite some time raving, so I don't mind the drum and bass heavy vids it's a nice juxtapostion for me raving and fishing
  12. I watched a couple of your vids last night found them quite interesting and easy to watch, some good advice and easy to follow tips etc,
  13. No worries thanks for the offer though πŸ‘πŸ‘
  14. Butt ring 40mm if you have it please
  15. Thanks will give it a try just saw some pink braid I quite liked the look of 😍😍😎😁
  16. BE LUCKY and over cockneying Talking about nothing but that you are just having a cuppa and you will be back with a other update soon I do like Leon though there is an intelligence in his angling and he seems a decent chap and he does catch some good fish I watched someone use every bait In the dynamite range over 3 rods earlier and then went on to use glug and hookbait dip too, 😁
  17. It would mainly be a leading about rod tbh, to just find some features etc,then I am Considering purchasing a second hand fishspy for my spod rod just for a quick butchers to check to see what's really Down there 😳
  18. I found some inserts on the bay but they weren't the right size unfortunately, which is usually the way when you want something specific 😳 If I was to bodge it myself would a 2.75lb be OK as a marker rod do we think? I quite fancy having a separate spod and marker this year
  19. Nope I know what you mean and yeah they probably are 😁 But they do have quite a variety square, round, long, curvy ones and all hand checked and reasonably priced 🀣
  20. Fish kissing 😘😘😘😘😁 Being made up with this one 🀐 Spombs, delkims, excessive pva bag making shots, all banned More editing in of casting up trees less perfect first time casting, If you are going to break fishery rules whilst filming at least check your continuity, I notice these things especially if you tell me the fishery rules 😁 Pointless barrow loading and unloading and car park shots (I don't care 😳) I like Carl and Alex, Dave Lane, carp catcher, Leon bartropp, baitworx, sticky bait and thinking anglers, cast a line Heseltine and the Nash ones are well shot and I've also got into honest carpy blogs lately they are funny
  21. Anyone used these some of there hook patterns look quite interesting? Just thought I would ask 😏
  22. Does anyone know where I can get just the insert please? If not maybe a cheap eye I need a 40mm one to fix an old rod, it's not worth getting it Re ringed but wouldn't mind if it was a cheap fix I am selling the rod and it isn't worth much so needs to be cheap Thanks in advance Elmo
  23. The jrc mozzie front is a multi fit and fits my cyprinus well enough not sure if that helps but it does work 😁
  24. Have you planned what you are going to spend it on yet?
  25. Smashing session dayvid hope you get a dry spell for packing up πŸ‘
