Thanks everyone , I think I'll use some of my Amazon voucher ! . 😃

Hello Everyone I had a laser spirit level bought for me for Christmas , which made me think . When casting to a far bank margin with something reasonably solid on the bank , i.e. a tree , could you use a laser measure to get an accurate distance then use your distance sticks to run out your line before clipping it up ; or do these laser measures only work indoors and leaves / branches plus sunlight would render them next to useless ? . 😃

Well it's good to see a happy Hedgehog , and that incredible fully scaled you'd have to be a right plonker to have a moody blank expression ! . 😀

Aah , the famous " there's a (rein)deer behind you " 'photo 😊

Hi Ian My Wife and me are very happy to read that your lad is on the mend , it's a shock to learn you're mortal even if you're built like a brick outhouse ! . You didn't fancy some wild boar for dinner then ? . 😀

My Wife's just said it's a good job your Son didn't fall ill while you were away in the middle of nowhere . So how's your Son doing now ? . 🙂

I'll look forward to that . 😀

I hear them before I see them , just as well really as they move so fast it gives you time to look , but knowing their flightpath is a huge advantage in spotting them . I just wish they would stand still close enough and long enough for me to focus my binoculars on them ! .

Or the ESP pre mades , depending on what hooks you prefer to use . By the time you've bought all the swivels and stops it works out cheaper to buy the pre mades , then just add the hook length of your choice .

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 . 🙂
