Thanks Yonny , I love it when you save me money ! . 😀

Well Yonny if you're going to be helping with baby say goodbye to sleep for a few years and you'll see quite a few sunrises ! . 😀

Thanks Dayvid 😃

Hello Everyone So which wellie should I ask for my birthday do you think ? 🤔 Ta

I have Garcia Mitchell 301 reels and Mitchell made Arbors that turn say a large capacity spool into a medium capacity spool ; is there nothing like that available for your spools Highy ? . Alternatively I would go with old line as Oscsha says , but making sure that the diameters match ? . 😀

Hi Highy I have been having a few problems with my Rig Marole SLS Specimen ( which may be nothing to do with the line ) , so I'm trialling Gardner HydroTuff because I'm a snag / feature Man too ! . The Gardner's not what I would call low diameter though . I also store any line spools in a biscuit tin as Golden Paws says until I change the line on my reel spools ( once a year ) . 😃

Hi Highy There was a post about lines not so long ago , and basically what Yonny said was different lines for different jobs i.e. snag line , distance casting etc . So what would you want your line to do Highy ? . 😃

Hi Northisbest - I love visiting my Son in South Yorkshire . Emmcee's post is from Aug. 2013 . 🙂

Is Nick your Dad then Mufty ? 😁.

Pop Ups , preferably white so they stand out over the black decaying leaves , I've not caught many with pink ; I like the idea that my hook is " cocked " already positioned ready to hopefully hook a Carp , rather than have to have it spin to take hold . Also I want my presentation to reset . I must try dumbells more , for the reason Gaz. gives . 😀

Thank goodness you didn't post 'photos of you in your mankini Stevo 😬

How's it going Cyborx ? , are you enjoying yourself ? . 😃

Ta very much Yonny . My Ronnie hook holds have always been in the scissors , which is o.k. I suppose , but I would prefer in the middle of the lip as some of my scissor hook holds didn't leave much margin of error . However , I have been using sz. 6 Muggas so I'll try 4's - would that be too big for mid doubles and 20's do you think ? ; I never catch singles he lied 🙄.

Thanks Dave . 😀

Hello Lumey In addition to what the others have said , ( i.e. location , location ,location and why the fish are where they are ) , as there are two of you why not have one of you on a pink pop up while the other one tries white or yellow ? ; personally pink has never really worked for me , but white seems to work on the few waters I fish . 🙂

Love the colour of your finger nails , Buzz 😁

Strewth ! , Bayeswater won't know what's hit it , bound to give up some whackers with your combined talents ! . 😁

I discipline myself to turn the Fish Finder off , although the fish icons aren't to scale as I understand ; I did turn the Fish Finder on one Winter session which saved me casting into the margins as the fish were shown as grouped up in the middle of the lake . Also in the Winter when the lake was empty I very quickly mapped a small lake . Occassionally I may make a single cast well past where I intend to fish to quickly check out the lake bottom , and yes I grimace at the splash , but then is it as bad as 2 x 3ozs leads with maybe pva bags plummeting into the water ? . 🙂

Spontaneous answer , different fish . You'll just have to have repeat captures and take some more 'photos as Nick says . 😀

I love my Avons , getting exciting when the dial goes past the " white " and the colour changes in the little window . Yes I'm old and sad ! .

Good for you jh92 , you persevered and it came good for you . 😃

A belated thanks very much Nick 😃

Hi everyone Has anyone tried this rig out pls. ? , and if so what are your thoughts / observations ? . 🙂

Well you certainly had a session to remember Jh92 ! . Sounds like you'll be spending more on treats than on boilies . I have to admire your positive attitude , it will be so rewarding when it all comes together . 😀🐶

Well that's a damn shame , hopefully when the infection is cleared up and you can finally go fishing the weather will have cooled down . 🐶
