Scrub that

I’ve never used a chord rig used a new style zig once and caught on it

you can add as many as you like of the extensions

Definitely not essential but it’s a nice thing to have in the armoury when required tipping up is not a problem that I have come across with mine it will actually sit there until I turn it over Makes me wonder if the nash boys use it so much as the short sawn offs they use can’t cast the 40 odd yards lol

I have an angling intelligence pole with extensions that I keep in the van all the time had it years used it a couple of times but if I need it I can walk back to the van and get it. they do get a bit unwieldy at longer ranges

Fishing is different to all people some may use their time to get away from the stresses of life and just be there catching is a bonus some want to work as hard in their fishing as they do in every other thing in life that’s what makes fishing so unique it has something for everyone. no wrong and no right

I’d love to be able to use a camera like that

No but most people who use them take them off

No you haven’t as you don’t have any kryston in there lol

Bit of a noddy really could have got the reels a lot closer together really lol

I’m actually disappointed you are winding the thread through that old jack hilton carp book lol in keeping I suppose though haha

it would be it needs more material lol

Don’t go down the angling brand route try outdoor clothing brands example snugpak sleeka salopettes in an XXL are for a 50” waist

Could speak to some of the custom guys to make you one if you are on Facebook Army Andy or total camo carp or custom carp products there possibly is more nowadays

Easier to replace as a 1 shot spool when needed though back it out with cheap line first..

They pre date that I think lol

My everyday 3 rod set of alarm is an old fox DXR 2 rod set is a set of SX (since put into the shed now I have got a set of jag 2plus1 bars) also have a set of ace alarms just in case both of these have vibration and roller wheel so I think I’m good for the next 20 years lol

Guess it will then lol

Have you checked the pack down length of both the rods?

I wear this version most of the time and did a 12k walk the other day when it was raining I believe that equates to 16000 steps lol https://muckbootcompany.co.uk/collections/men/products/mens-muckster-ii-ankle-all-purpose-lightweight-shoe-black I bought them about a year-18 months ago on the recommendation of mark Bryant from bait works great even for dewy mornings in the summer. I keep the longer chore boot for proper winter and deeper floods

109.99 is a lot of money if they are rubbish lol i suffer from cold feet I use muck “chore”boots and merino wool socks and not felt the cold yet i bought my mrs the Arctic version but it hasn’t been cold enough for her to put them on yet lol

If it looks carpy it generally is that would be starting point so find a few spots like that and feed a little leave the tackle at home or in the car just in case lol for at least a couple of trips. then reap the rewards by flitting between the swims
