Just watched that video you posted mate .... it could be me getting old , but there very young lads to be taking line advice from 😆. But even they opted for the 18lb which is still low diameter for 18lb ( same as the 15lb I use ) . It will be fine where no snags or weed are an issue . Just looking at the range it looks to be aimed at fishing long where leader bans are in place & weed & abrasion aren't an issue. I've used similar lines in the past so talk from experience & lost fish !! The 18lb could be interesting for level line casting & giving it the beans, could be worth a test in the future.

At 0.31 in 15 lb shouldn't think its great on abrasion, more of a pre stretched casting line is it ?

absolute stunners lads 👏😎

Give a wipe & then greese it up . A wire brush will probably clean it up, if a wipe doesn't. The drill attached ones would be nice for that .

Has some good sessions on churn in the past. This one's from years back .... dread to think how many tbh , but I look ten years younger!

Yep ... Sat stripping my old line as well speak mate 👍

Spot of carping for me next week .... 😎heading down the road to the cotswold water park (churn pool ) with a 3 other mates. Monday to Thursday. Hopefully have something for the catch reports this time , some big fish in there these days 🤞 Happy days 😁 Best of luck to anyone else getting out .

Well didn't manage to catch .... but it wasn't for the want of trying. Absolutely loved getting out again. Was trying to tempt some big fish from a snag , one was defo a 40 + mirror, finally managed to get two takes on the 3rd morning only to drop them both to hook pulls . Hopefully getting out again in September 😎

Cheers mate 👍 I'll definitely enjoy it ...a fish or 2 will be the icing on the cake mate .But not a given at this venue . Got a few days to try & winkle one out.

My thought of the day is ..... Vans packed ready for the morning. First time out in 4 years in this country!!! Like a kid at Xmas 😁 Rods probably won't be in till the afternoon got the draw to do etc , not somewhere I've fished before either so nothing to go on . Anyway happy days 😎

Pretty much what I heard mate .... Ali wanted to be made a director & when it was not forth coming decided to leave. Like you say though making Tom one after , must be a kick in the teeth.

Couldn't agree more 😎

Sorting through my kit ready for next week .... was surprised how tidy I packed it away tbh😲 Really looking forward to getting out & being a social even better 👍

I think some areas will be mate .... well pebbles anyway , came across what was probably an old river bed . Good 1- 2 ft thick , I don't reckon it will take carp long to seek that out once the lake bed softens 😉

Nearly there now guys 👍

No definitely needs an operator 😄

Still hard at it on this lake job .... the main contractor hired me in a 50 tonne machine to speed things up a bit . I'm loading 30 tonnes in 4 Buckets now.. right beast !

Great stuff guys 😎

Foams good for taking on additives.... give it a squeeze with forceps while submerged. Awesome for zigs .

If the owner gets his part right... really could be a good venue this . Potential for a social I reckon in the future.

Hard at it in the 360 today 👍

Keeping well thanks Ian ... Trust you & family are too . Near Alvechurch mate 👍

Hope your all keeping well .... I still haven't been fishing!!! Started another lake project this week ... could be of interest to anyone in and around Birmingham in the future 😉

I've used ridgemonky hooks & they didn't let me down .
