  1. And smell of bonfire when you want a cuppa lol
  2. So are some on the linear complex
  3. Age old question on guides… some say 50mm butt some say 40mm butt it’s usually 6 or 7 rings though depending on where you put the first one on the butt. im not a builder sorry.
  4. The independent butchers green grocers bakers etc can’t compete with the likes of Tesco. same for most tackle shops who don’t have the buying power of AD
  5. most people will think nothing to spend 3 or 4£ on a cup of coffee a day and then moan about ticket prices as they are driving to the lake. my club is 135 a year for me and the mrs. I don’t like to fish day tickets as they ARE too expensive imo. plenty of town centre stretches are still free to fish ok most are devoid of carp but hey ho plenty of other fish to go for all top end equipment in any sport or hobby is expensive I can buy a screwdriver for less than a quid but I wouldn’t use one.
  6. Still only £1.37 a day less than a cup of coffee lol
  7. We are all guilty of having way too much tackle and that’s when I think if you look at it and what you paid then it is quite expensive but then when you break it down to how long you might use a rod provided you don’t tred on it etc could be 10/15 years spend 300 on a rod and break it down it won’t be as bad as you think . in 1990 I bought the wife a “proper pole” mid range equates to 1700£ in todays money lol not sure compared to golf though lol
  8. Ask the local angling club Ours always takes donations carp take a fly as well lol
  9. I think it’s relatively cheaper than it was years ago and bait doesn’t have to cost you anything, you can go and dig some worms and catch fish so all that costs is time. It’s only starts to cost a lot of money when you got high end or matching equipment. years ago you had to buy a rod license for every region you fished in now it’s just the 1 im sure it was about 4 or 5 quid a rod for each region in the early 80’s we used to walk. im sure if we went back to the roots we could do it for next to nothing.
  10. Even the decathlon has the 100m in it lol
  11. These “consultants” are telling the brands that’s what is needed so that’s what we get
  12. Does that mean Steve o is the guy out of jackass lol
  13. So who is Steve r
  14. Fox did/do a camo in the micron x range
  15. What will probably stop people buying them is it’s not a reputable brand if delkim fox or one of the other bigger players did it then they might fly off the shelves simply because more women are getting into angling nowadays.
  16. Define live bait I guess carp will eat other fish
  17. Mass immigration was a Labour thing to make Tony b liars mrs a fortune as an immigration lawyer… they was feathering their own nests back then none of them care about you. Doesn’t matter what colour flag they fly
  18. Good thing about Belgium is it’s only 1/2 hour out of the train tunnel. there is a canal in adinkerke (sp) where most of the brits go on a booze/Fag cruise. I have a friend who is from Belgium but he has been on the missing list for 6 months or so. I could ask him for a few ideas but he’s not an angler so could be hit or miss this could be a good starting point https://www.angloinfo.com/how-to/belgium/lifestyle/sports-leisure/fishing
  19. Your contract is with the shop you bought them from so in the first instance take them back to there if you have no joy then go through to the customer services at sonik.
  20. Can I Slightly rephrase you post it should not be racist to believe that a country should….
  21. Kiss my arris lol
  22. In deeper waters you need to find where the water heats up first and target them spots. don’t waste time getting there too early as bites tend to be short spells at the warmer part of the day. keep going as you are
  23. Can’t find anything just contact the council best bet https://www.lbbd.gov.uk/
  24. Regular batteries for me
