  1. I could be bought tbh I would love some decent overhead shots of the lake I fish over the road 😂 For the record I can see the appeal but if your fishing and all of a sudden they are flying about overhead they are a tad annoying 😳
  2. You would have to take that up with my only fans management team 😂
  3. Should be banned,it is an invasion of my privacy filming me without my permission, unless you are paying royalties it's banned 😂
  4. They are tips ones so quite small ideal for snowman rigs, should be good to tip off my match the hatch hard hookers.
  5. Proper Job lot off ebay 😳
  6. Cracking start, well done hopefully that's a good sign for more tto come.
  7. Best of luck mate hope you have a load of whackers.
  8. Anyone else wondering if this bottle survived?
  9. The battle of brasenose
  10. That bottle might split when that turns to ice, I've put a couple of water bottles in the freezer to cool before and forgotten to take them out, it doesn't end well usually, I had a metal one and where the ice expanded it ripped a gash out of the metal bottle.
  11. A boat isn't as much fun though.
  12. If you want to see it in action it's one hell of a tool. https://www.instagram.com/reel/CwPtGNps789/?igshid=YTUzYTFiZDMwYg==
  13. Look what the pouch is called in German 😲😯😛😀😂
  14. Check out this bad boy. https://kkslingshot.de/products/futterschleuder-v1
  15. I'm sure it will be fine, Just remember you will be throwing it into a silty muddy lake it will soon be tainted with fish poo and dead leaves and stuff
  16. Does it smell and look OK?
  17. Okuma all the way then mate, my 8k have never missed a beat in the whole time I've had them, I dropped one in the pond still smooth as a baby's backside.
  18. I would look at those too, i have a shimano baitrunner and I don't like it, poor line lay and I really don't like the double handles, feels a bit like a toy to me.
  19. Oh no sorry to hear that mate, hopefully they will both start getting the care they need now, hope it gets easier soon for you
  20. I've found sonar can be misleading, especially if I have already baited a spot, I've found clear spots that I know are clear, that look like they are right to the top with weed, I've decided that's the pesky rudd now though. not happy with eating all the bait, they are also mimicking weed. Like you say though I need a drop and also prefer to cast. If I don't get It drop it gets redone.
  21. I wouldn't worry mate you will need your own Peckham spring the amount you are planning to make.
  22. I always soak mine in cold water straight from the tap, that seems overkill to me putting it in perrier, by the time it's boiled and all the other stinky winky is added it's been sterilised anyway.
  23. Glad you got it sorted, hopefully it will work everytime now, mine has been fine since I got it set up. And yes compared to the price of a deeper range extender great value for money.
  24. If it works for you and it isn't putting the fish in any needless danger crack on I say.
  25. So you're not fishing 2 bait stringers exclusively or first cast if you are creeping them up and no one does ever, In reality you are making more disturbance than a boat. And even with a map spots change, so you would probably check that first with a marker or lead which is more disturbance, and that's before any bait is applied. I used to hate bait boats too, now I can see that used correctly they can be a great tool. With a boat with a sonar you can turn up blind, put your rig and bait (probably 20 spombs worth or more ) on a nice spot that you've just found, line tight and feel for a drop and bingo, you are fishing effectively. And that's just the basics you can find spots you could never find with a marker rod, be more accurate, you could literally fish on a dustbin lid at 35 wraps without any bait falling out of the dustbin lid. Not that I would mind, I like to know I am able to cast as far as any boat I send out. Not only that I still like to cast sometimes, you get a better drop from a cast. I will also use marker, wraps and the boat to make sure I am super accurate, you cant do that pub chucking a 2 bait stringer out.
