framey

I would imagine others could be crimped but korda are not likely to let you know which ones could lol

They are good for this I use them on a quick change swivel aswell

Powder with powders except dyes I have found liquids with liquids roughly 100-130g of dry per egg but that depends on mix there is no science to it it’s all bait woolly lol

i will bite ... I don’t think it’s particularly bad or unsafe unless the plastic bait is banned then they can use it it’s a lazy combi rig using stiff coated material because it’s easier to strip the coating than tie an albrite knot lol personally I would have just used a quick change swivel rather than the quick link and a swivel

Depends on budget really theres 5500 size shimano I like the gs 4000 series daiwa ninja series daiwa Fox fx9 some like the okuma range of reels something for every price range really

7 months!!! that’s nothing

Congratulations to trakker for the first tent over a grand lol

Well done that fish wouldn’t have been easy to catch looking at it’s mouth

I find tigers very filling but very Morish

I prefer the crook of the swivel so the opening is on the outside of the hook rather than inside. just in case...

But a pop up is a fake bait lol

Which version ? the one with the round circle on the front?

I always used to use a piece of spaghetti as the stop for the top bead until Korda brought out the half bead kit

Blooming match committee’s lol

try these it doesn’t say out of stock unlike most of the others I have looked at https://www.hullanglingcentre.co.uk/index.php/fox-eos-1-man-bivvy-skin.html

I bought a set of 3 daiwa infinity super slim 12 foot in 2lb test curve but have never got round to using them lol i tend to use a set of 2.75 shimano compacts if I need 12 footers as they bend through but can cast a bit if needed its not always about the test curve it’s the action you want.

That’s what the manufacturers tell us we want. you will probably need to get a set made Harrison do lower test curves https://www.harrisonrods.co.uk/carp_rod_selector.html https://www.harrisonrods.co.uk/rods and blanks/webblanklist.pdf

Not all the lakes are to be fair

Within an hour.. possibly albans lakes is doable southend farm New lands hall manor farm is a good shout

Anything goes until they don’t eat it you might find a winning combination I didn’t mean it for etiquette I meant it as in don’t let them fish your spots lol

Don’t bait when anyone is fishing lol

I would just go and see what I can catch in fun sessions to start with using 2 or 3 rods depending on what the rules of the lake are each with a different bait worm casters maggots maize pellet hemp etc groundbait using all the above at least then you have all bases covered on the boilie front 1 quality bait in the correct area will outfish 3 or 4 rubbish baits in the correct area after a while. you need to have a balanced bait that ticks the fishy boxes doesn’t matter if it’s fishmeal nut vegetable insect or milk

Not really needed unless you want it all to match Just don’t move the distance sticks if you use them keep it the same whether you use 10 or 12 foot just use the wrap as a number i have a spare spool for my reels with braid on if I need to mark up and just swap about and just use my fishing rod

My uk pb carp came to the Christmas cracker pop up

I have some elite baits direct Christmas cracker pop ups the tutti fruitti type flavour wanted some other bits but they never come back to me luckily I can get some of their bits from a semi local tackle shop same people? Or the other party involved in the split? is it magnum baits?
