hey gaz, i have to say you are pretty prolific #bankchats #asithappens #carpontheline #tometoyoutome #gazhazgotonelol

black widow, keeps the bird life away when them boilies go past making a noise like a V2 rocket nah, i have got the ESP boilie pult, accurate up to prob 70+ yards? great for getting particle out to 20ish yds too

this man is a wizard when it comes to reimagining old methods, for years i have placed my bread flake on the hook in the conventional way and then used a little pva tape to hold it for a long cast, novel i thought, innovative if you will. enter Kevin and the BREAD BOMB!!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=awecQhjBxoI#action=share a little thought and this could have been me, just like the Gardener suspender float, i had been making those for 20+ years before they came on the market. i bet the patents on those two alone would have made up my pension have any of you ever been in this position where you have seen a new bit of kit come on the market that was a slight adaption or tweak on something that you developed specifically yourself?

hi Kingnewport and welcome to the forum, mr newmarket has given some good advice but just my 1p worth, i would personally drop down to a 2.25lb test curve which will still give you good indication on a light feeder while being able to cope with that happy accident when a biggie comes along. Some cracking rods out there for around the same price as the one you are looking at. i personally have the Mat Hayes feeder rod for light stuff and for its price its bang on, also the Chub Outkast in 2.25 or the Fox Warrior S, they are all good rods when balanced with the right reel. as said, get yourself down to the local tackleshop (if you can find one) and do some feeling, ask if they can set the rods up with a few reels too so you get a proper feel for the balance. happy shopping

as far as i can see Jim, tubing will help to protect the fish from line rubbing its flanks and scale lifting. tubing will also help stop abrasion on your line from gravel or swan muscles etc and also with the camouflaging of your line. a leader will also do some of these things but mainly assist in helping you to chuck a three stone lead over the horizon without cracking off

this is the way i remember him, what the hell was with the twig in the back pocket tho???

My third attempt and I think I can say it's standing now lol Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk

cars bikes and golf clubs i cant fault, but women being organic can and often do go off

Matrix launched the matrix carpmaster rod in 2011, this help?? welcome to the forum btw

Hang on bud i will dig it off me phone, the wife is always ringing it

my method. buy a pac of funky monkey juice cups cut spam into half inch cubes take straw from juice pac and using the sharp end push a hole thru the cube of meat, this will leave a nice 2mm hole add powdered curry or turmeric to your cubes and then seal in a bag freeze for at least a week till solid give funkey monkey juice to the kids keep meat in a coolbag or sumsuch and when you get to the bank you can mount the frozen meat thru the hole previously made, it will cast really well if freelined but will slowly sink as it thaws out, at this point you can either wind in and refresh or leave it to sink while holding the line 'touch ledger' style. i have found this to be a killer method when all else fails

didnt freeze em for long enough?

thought so bud but i had to make sure, plus it gave me an opportunity to comment on summat dont get many of those these days

Tim, you do know that the name 'safezone' does not refer to the kit being safe dont ya?? its called safezone as it is supposed to be invisible or under the radar so the fish feel safe, talk about missnaming things eh!

i have searched online for the underwater 8 vid but cant find it at any of my usual sources, and thats bad for a 2-3 yr old piece. it looks to me as if he has got the bead on a tail rubber/rig tube or a bit of putty rolled up the line, eitherway i would think that it would slide up the leader with a little pressure whereas if it was hit by the lead on a take the bead would act as a temporary brake on the lead. if the pressure on the bead was constant as in the lead pushing the bead it would slide up and free the ledger so making it a safe rig. if i could have found the vid of ali making it up then i would have been able to give a better synopsis.

i would presume that you will be making your findings known to messrs Eagle Claw? will put a stop to that damn seal wannabe from prancing about on the promo vids may even prompt them to take a closer look at their product, could be good for future batches

there is absolutely nothing i could say to add to that

hi simon, i wouldnt worry too much about the fishing in oz as they intend to totally eradicate every invasive species (introduced or otherwise) by the year 2020. i wonder if they realize that the white man is also an invasive species? there is quite a bit on here about C&R in oz, you just have to look for it. welcome to the forum btw

i really enjoy sharpening my own hooks, exactly as the trokar ones are done actually. i get a lot of satisfaction too when i land a fish and see that the hook has performed perfectly and as it should do so strangely enough a hook that does not need my little bit of input would bore me. for those reasons alone i'm out

i make up a messy rig when i know im on silt, messy because i floss 3 or 4 nugs on the lead and put one on the hook point too. i have dropped this in the margins and they sink nice and slow but i am missing the bolt effect that you get with a plugged lead.

killer method if you can get them at it close in

explain to a noddy, how do you gauge the depth of the silt if you are fishing say 50 or 60 yds out?
