I have just bought a Nash scope ops brolly I believe it is 4.7kg packs down small, 44inches if I remember correctly. they do an overwrap for it too can't vouch for its usability personally as I've not used it yet, maybe something to consider Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Smufter..... don't suppose you could give me the packed down dimensions of this by any chance? (Please) I'm looking at getting one but want to know if it will fit in my scope rod bag or in the scope quiver Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Oh wow! I'd just stick with the English description mate it might mean a bit more [emoji23][emoji23] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

Oh cool glad you managed to find them! I'm sure you won't be disappointed [emoji6] as you know I have bought the Nash scopes for the pack down length if it hadn't of been them I would have gone for the 10ft velocities, my thoughts now are....see how I get on with the scopes and that will determine if I sell the 12ft velocities or like you keep them for sentitment Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

Have you tried total fishing tackle? They have a very good selection of gear available I use them a lot and the customer service is also pretty good Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

The scopes come with 50mm or 40mm it's the buyers choice....I have also heard nothing but good about the whychwood extricators I went with the scopes for the pack down length and the fact that I was offered a deal I could t refuse...enough hijacking now (sorry smufter) but partially on point if you like the look of the velocities ianain they come in 10ft option too Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

Noooo, the full corks are the new additions to my tackle shed, they are 10ft 3lb Nash scopes, bought because the 12ft velocitys are bit to big for some of the swims i fish, their is a pic of the velocities on here somewhere though..... rite here in fact -

I have the 12ft 3lb version, with shrink wrap handles, I can't fault them, they look good (my opinion of course) and do the job nicely, I researched them as much as possible when I bought them and I literally couldnt find anything bad about them..... nothing but praise in fact and that's from the media guys and independent reviews too Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
Ok so....thanks every one for the advice and opinions, but I was presented with an offer that I couldn't refuse on a pair of scopes 10ft cork handles (didn't think I'd like them but I was wrong they look great).... got to love it when someone doesn't realise/doesn't care what they are selling [emoji16][emoji51][emoji16] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Well without trying to sound patronising if you have no reason to enter the water on any of your lakes then I can't see the need to get waders, I'd just go with the waterproof jacket that you have and some waterproof bottoms (sallopetes maybe) and some waterproof footwear. Obviously just my thoughts and opinion [emoji51] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Depends on how far you are willing to travel mate, I don't know the specific area very well but I know it's "out in the sticks" as I worked their once, I'm sure their are some guys from up that way on here....so no doubt can offer much better advice, but as a a start you have angling direct at Colchester and a huge place on Canvey island (it's name escapes me) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It's just purely intrigue, I was watching a video of some casting tuition (my casting leaves a little to be desired) and was surprised by some of the things that I saw and heard and where changed to achieve a greater distance for the gentlemen being taught . I just wanted to see a wider selection of set ups to see how they compared and you guys where the perfect group to ask Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So as the title says.... What I would like to know if you gentlemen would be so kind is.... 1, The type of reel you use (big pit /baitrunner) 2, what lb line you use and if you use a leader 3, the distances your are achieving 4, the size water (feel free to give multiple answers r varying sizes of water 5, the length of rod Thanks in advance Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

My apologies mate, it seems I have Mis read the info about the kodex rod I hadn't realised it was a three / four piece rod! I thought it was a two piece with the option of adding in the blank third section...... that's that option out the window, so now it's between the scopes and the whychwood extricator Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
