Double standards...been reading blue for years and I get called a perv!!!

This is an amazing read and essential for all you outdoorsmen.....a genuine one off bloke with a real grasp of what life is really about and self sufficiency.....cant reccomend it highly enough...BRILLIANT Del

But if one fails they all have to get sent back together anyway by the looks of it exactly the point...why would I want to be without alarms completely because one head failed....I dont have that with any other alarm....its just design for designs sake...no practical thought involved Look like a load of rubbish. They'll be inventing the square wheel next. korda already have the patent on it...its for their new "workout barrow"

three heads reliant on one circuit....no thanks...one fails and they all do....will stick with the nevs

bang on mate....have a few eh!!...not jealous at all

might be able to help there mate..along with a tar boiling ring to blast it

its a case of what we get used to I think mate....not that I dont like change...just a confidence thing...but I do use stiff rig tubing in the mix too...as stiff as boom tubing

Best waters to fish for my mind mate....whole host of problems to think through...and that set of meres are a stunner mate....love deep silt and the fish it brings...nothing like it for me ...and yes any heli rig etc on that bed is a no no...especially within twenty yards of a snag....you having much success fella???....did you hit the big un first?? or working up to her?

could really stir it up and start talking about stiff rig tubing thrown into the equation

Like I say...horses for courses....the waters I fish are deep silt...slack lines dont do it for me...and at range a backlead is the way for me...about thiry foot from the tip to cut the angles....when the need arises I do fish slack...but it doesnt arise very often....snag fishing is my preferred and never backlead for this...rarely fish a silt rig in all truth...far more options of a better format available...never fish pop ups...hate them almost as much as MY ex and have no confidence in them...but I know they have their place....each to their own....

deep silt is what I fish in nige...but yes I see your view....always have on a tight backleaded line and never had a worry with it...good indication and in conjunction with an old 80s trick (sliding hair)...very good hook up ratio....horses for courses

I stand with nick on this...not ever in thirty years have I needed to have a fixed position on a silt rig...it negates the idea behind the rig...the lead plugging into silt creates the ability for the hook to bite...and never used slack lines on it....sensitivity is lost...which gets away from the whole idea for me

Nice Malc...very nice

Pm sent Malc

not sure why you would take that standpoint???.....the weight of the fish is one of many factors...and fairly low on the list when looking at line strength

.....light lead to negate it having a pivot point that helps it to do you over......

what weight is your lead....would want as light as poss

...had a grumpy old mens social at merrington in 08...was a damn good do.....not a lot of fishing happened....but some damn good laughs

well Im sure arrangements can/could be made over timescale fella I need a good stalking lesson off you two and a good friendly chat I cant wait for this!!! Kev i see your a jedi does that mean you come with a brown cloak now and do we call you OB1 now .....well that will make me an ewok

Well you should be there then ....will make certain we can get a date and venue that allows all preferred old scrotes there ......now how many will own up to being one

well Im sure arrangements can/could be made over timescale fella

...thought you may!!

something that would enable one of you to provide a lift for a canterbury reprobate???..

Hell...if only!!....sea trout at night are a major goal for me this year.
