Hello Bags
Personally I've never owned a 3lb t/c Rod , but if you described what you want / need the rod to do hopefully someone will be along to advise .
It's a shame that you haven't been able to wet a line on your weekend off Nick , but maybe Sky is getting some long walks ? .
You could always try Husky Racing
I love my Trakker Tempest Brolly .
Sometimes if it's wet and I can't dry it off in the garden I can just connect the sprung loaded rib poles and leave the brolly in the garage or the greenhouse " unfurled " and with a bit of turning over every day within a few days it's dry .
Hello spr
Stupid question , but with a 3 wheeler I guess you push the barrow with all 3 wheels on the ground , rather than lift the back legs off the ground and keeping your arms straight push the barrow along on the front wheel ? .
You'll have to change your name to Dedicated Dave , 2 1/2 miles is still a very long way to me - Yonny is just mad enough to run that distance wearing a backpack as well as pushing a Barrow just to make it more of a challenge
A 4 mile walk , wow ! .
I guess you are going to be fishing a Canal ? .
So how far to a towpath ? , because I just had a mad idea of you getting a Dinghy with a little motor to shorten your pushing time .
O.K. , I'll get my coat .
Not that I'm doubting Yonny for a minute , but could you report back on your test results please Chill ? , it would be good to have 2 reviews ; and if Nick does his bench tests and compares the results against Diawa Sensor Brown and Gardner Pro Carp Light Blend I'll be a very happy bunny .
Hello Cyborx
Well I've been having this problem of short hair or long hair all season , so I've changed to Pop Up Rigs ! .
So now all I have to do is position the boilie tight to the " shoulder " of the hook , umm no I'm still having problems with missed bites and losing fish .
I was told at my local tackle shop that the small Carp were so damn quick when they sucked in and spat out the bait that a longer hair meant the bait stayed their mouth's longer and therefore gave you more chance of hooking them .
However , the bigger Carp took a slower , more measured approach to eating bait .
Well that's what I was told anyway .
Thanks very much everyone , especially Yonny who's saved me lots of money as he has " used most of them " ! .
It's all the properties that Yonny lists Stevo that I'm , and I think the other chaps are after .
