  1. Use the power of the web put a post on their Facebook page and ask for them to contact you regarding a refund lol that seems to work a lot.. personally,I wouldn’t have used Gerry’s for coarse fishing tackle tbh and it wouldn’t matter how much cheaper they are than any others simply because they are known more for sea angling. never had a problem when buying sea tackle from them.
  2. Still cannot fathom why we still hear of at least one a year in today’s age. sorry for the loss.
  3. The rods have a very nice progressive action with plenty of power in the butt section, producing a smooth and accurate casting action with 100 yards plus easily achievable, although I haven't really wound them up I have been hitting 70 yards with 20lb fluorocarbon mainline very effortlessly. The velocity's action is a joy to play fish on, from stopping a fish going for weed or snags to playing a fish under the tip, the action gives you control over a carp on a on long powerful run yet remains soft enough not to cause hook pulls under the tip. you have maxed out with these rods at that TC Floppy rods do not cast as far as a stiff poker. unfortunately, tackle manufacturers only give the tc rather than the action of a rod as they think that’s what we want to hear. a stiff (Fast taper) 2lb tc will almost always probably outcast a 3lb through (progressive ) actioned rod. unless Terry Edmonds is casting against you not sure how a progressive fast taper works lol but I’m not a carbon expert or a rod maker but that’s how I see it
  4. Go onto hobby craft website and type in pipe cleaner https://www.hobbycraft.co.uk/kids/kids-craft-supplies/pipe-cleaners/
  5. See if in stock any where else and ask for a refund.

  11. As hard to believe as it sounds it is actually only 3 or 4 working days since you ordered them.
  12. I would have preferred a more in depth on any one of them rather than 3 rushed fishery stories. as the moor mill complex (toadless) is my local I would have preferred that one lol.
  13. Gotta say I’m a bit disappointed in this years offering
  14. It is but mixing egg whites is easier to do than mixing boilie mix.

  20. Had loads of DAM gear over the years and none of it has really ever been tat.
  21. With the Hobart you do need to make sure you stop the mixer before changing the gears or you will smash them. the modern ones have a fibre gearing I have known bait makers smash the metal gears up and it’s usually the first gear because they are like animals doesnt matter how much they are told either lol
