Cheers , Yonny . đ

Did you try any floaters , trout pellets , mixers etc ? . If you did Capadventurer I don't know what more you could have done , and as you say you did enjoy the sun ! . đ

Hello Yonny Are you still " Tuffing it out " ? . It wasn't until I read one of Smufters' posts that I learnt about Berkley Connect CM90 and CM70 - how do you rate these lines as a snag line please ? . Ta . đ

I've got 2 . The 1949 IDP that covers Spain , Ireland , Malta or Cyprus and lasts for 1 year . and The 1968 IDP that covers all other E.U. states ( i.e. France ) and lasts 3 years . đ

Cheers , Mufty . đ

As I understand it , a rough rule of thumb is a 1 lb Test curve rod is used to cast a total of 1oz in weight ( which is roughly 30g ) - the 10-30g would be the recommended casting range of your little spinning rod I believe . Personally I would go for a 1 1/2 lb test curve as Nick advises , and then maybe later move on to the stronger rods the others have recommended , the 1 1/2 lb would then be used for floater fishing . đ

Can you tell us what your " third hand rod " is please - hopefully it still has a transfer on it which tells you what it is , then hopefully we can work out what test curve it is . đ

Just don't leave Elwood asleep in his car seat while you have a little mouch around the lake if the sun suddenly comes out ! . âšī¸

Well if Nige is personally autographing the Nash products that's bound to put the price up . đ
-
Well if Nige gives you a generous discount Highy that ÂŖ200 may just cover the Nash stand ! . đ

I can just see you and your Son lying there with cucumber slices on your eyes Highy , but I'm not sure what your Wife will be doing while you 2 are enjoying the spa ? . Me , I got in early before the prices went up for Valentines Day and took my Wife to Wimpy . đ

That's very interesting Blue. , but I thought you suffered with your back and knees ? . I think my knees would protest the next day if I sat on a Lo Chair other than for a short period of time , and the same for sitting on a mat or the grass ; I am better off sitting on my JRC Xlite Chair at 3kg. đ -

I remember a 'photo that Nick posted of his very discreet night time set up using a tarp. , very minimalistic and mobile . -
Lucky it didn't hit your windscreen . đ¨

Happy that you're pleased with the job . Hopefully out of the 4 weeks you were without the rod the weather was stopping you getting out anyway for some of the time ? . đ

" I'm under the stairs " Tree123 or Harry Potter ? . đ -
Let's hope for the forums' sake you get out on Tues. , Smufter , that's 2 items to review . đ
-
Well roll on Tuesday , it should hopefully be a top job . Please keep the forum posted . đ

Well I was originally thinking about a Kayak , but now you mention sleeping on the boat , maybe a punt ? . I'm just guessing though as I've no experience of this sort of thing . As Kev says though " safety first " . đ

Go round with your little ginger enforcer and a stale pork pie . đ
-
I suppose he could be ill , but surely he could manage a text . Personally , having lived in Spain ( land of the British cowboy ) I would never pay up front , no leverage if it all goes pete tong . Go round mob handed with your boy and give him a slap . đ

Would this be a boat for paddling / rowing ? .

That's very interesting knot , Nick , I'd never heard of it before . đ

Thanks Mufty . đ
