I hope you went for the black magic ones, they are very good, i did wonder why Baf had stopped doing smaller amounts of stuff, I might get some bits at some point

No not yet I will message him at some point and ask for details

This video goes through the set up of the range extender on your computer, you only need to do this once. One thing I learnt the hard way was that your firewall will probably block it, I just turned mine off while I set it up. You will need your deeper on charge or In a glass of water while you set it up so it can connect, You only need to set it up once on the computer then you can connect to it from your phone when it is powered by the power bank, As of yet it is untested but others that have used it have reached distances of 180m + But it is about 5 times cheaper than the deeper one ✅

This is basically where I am up to so far, I have some foam to hold it all in place better and I have a phone holder I want to attach to the outside but I haven't quite finished that yet,

If like me you get fed up with your deeper cutting out at well below stayed range, then this may be of interest. What you need Vonets Vap11s WiFi extender, amazon was cheapest I found £35.68 Power bank to run it from, (i need a fast charge one) Phone and a comp for setting it up, And I've made a case for mine using an old bite alarm case, I drilled 3 holes for the ariels (but you only need two one was wrong ) 😂 When the ariels are screwed on this holds it in place nicely, Then I found an old butt grip, drilled a hole so it had to be wound through and this will be to attach to a storm pole, With ariels Tbc

Yeah I have loads of bait too I'm going to do some pre baiting to get rid of it I think, two bins and a load of buckets seems excessive 😂

That's what the pellets I've just bought are for, and I'm going back to using fox tadpole inserts with fox leads as you can set them a little loose so they act as a running rig

Would anyone be interested In a photography tutorial while we are on our social?

What did you win?

Had to take the kids to smyths toy superstore today, just so happens there was an angling direct round the corner, I bought some korda basix scissors, Sticky bloodworm pellets, cc Moore mini ultramix pellets, some advanta tiger nuts, fox tadpoles and some ridgemonkey anti tangle sleeves. Earlier today I bought some avid D rig spinner kickers because I saw them on fb they look mint, I didn't just buy loads of stuff I didn't really need lol And I've got my DIY deeper WiFi booster up and running now, just need to finish the case test it works properly and I'll do a thread on it,

They laugh at me it would appear, I had another blank today, but I did have a funny incident 😂 It all started at 3am when I thought I had a bite bobbin went right up to the alarm and didn't drop, lifted Into nothing, as it was foggy and dark I thought I would send out the QE2 with some bait and my rig, put in quite a few freebies, then didn't get a drop, I sat there for a bit in the cold (with hot water bottle) but it bugged me so I rewrapped the marker rod and I had sent it out a rod length top short, reeled it in fine no debris on it, redid it with the correct distance, and got a drop when I released the bait dump, left it quite happy, when I bought it in at home time it was stuck on an almighty snag, 8 had my phone in my hoody pocket which fell into the edge, stuck my rod down to rescue it only to see my rod getting pulled Into the water under the tension of the line 😂 Managed to catch it with my other rod but couldn't get it back as I had too much tension on it, had to go in a bit and recatch it luckily after filling my wellies I grabbed the handle and got it back in, then all I had to do was try and free it, luckily I had used a 20lb outline leader and it must have cut because I got all my line back bar the rig which I am guessing it stuck in a snag still. And my phone is in a bed of rice(I recently broke my new phone after 6 days and one small drop) Happy days Carp God's suck

You are right I do, 🍕 Smashed it with dinner tonight. Potato wedges with leftover chilli, grated cheese, jalapeños and sour cream, was mighty tasty

Not a bad Idea though, people love pizza

It seems to have got worse since i bought some korda stuff rather than the Gardner leader i was using, I will have a look at the knot though 👍

I have ordered 3 esp ones and both the korda ones I could find see how long those ones last me 😂

Thanks I did use an easy splice one for a while but I bent it all out of shape and couldn't get it back lol

Thanks not sure I've tried the esp or korda ones so I may give them a go 👍

I seem to be going through more splicing needles than I catch fish at the moment. I've recently broken 4 or 5 trying to make some leaders and as the pic shows I've tried a few 😂 3 thinking anglers ones ( not good ) Avid retracta (broke easily) Fox blue( lasted a while) Other one was just another broken needle I had lying about but it makes more of a case as I have got through an awful lot lately. I don't think i am particularly ham fisted and have made leaders before. Can anyone recommend a bulletproof fine latch needle that's good for splicing and won't just break please ?

I'm thinking about taking Betty with me this week for a day trip, she is mental but loves being with me so I am hoping that is all it takes 😂, she will have to stay tied up a bit though because she has a strong prey drive and doesn't always come back lol she is like my shadow unless she gets a taste of freedom

Yes that is what I was thinking too something along those lines

Just having a play with some rigs tonight as I was bored and I wanted to try a slip D rig for wafters and that, was looking at the kickers I had in stock and thought I would try a noodle kicker, quite happy with the result tbh seems to work quite nicely on the palm test and the kicker will make it harder for the fish to deal with I think. J precision advanced wide gape size 4 N trap soft braid Tungsten Noodle kicker from terminal tackle uk

Just bought some new leads from MP Lead shed. Went for some lighter coloured ones like sand, clay and gravel colour because I was horrified how the silty ones I've been using stood out like a sore thumb when I saw them in the margin 😳

Yes I think that can happen I will arrange it so it can be done that way and we can hopefully add a code word to let them know it's us

Just going to be a DIY thread don't want to make loads 😂 It is quite simple though, I got the idea off fb
