Never found it, it must have travelled beyond the fence, over a road and into the fields opposite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birthday prezzie of my wonderful wife. Nice bit of kit mate and as "ouch" said, good luck in christening them. When I decided that sea fishing was for me I nearly got a pair of these but as all my carp rods are Harrison I decided to go with Harrison for my sea rods and had a pair of Torrix P2's custom built. finchey 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like you are always buying them 😂 That being said I do own 3 myself, a 2 man the bunker with wrap and a brolly system 😳 Just put up the Sonik Brolly.... It's actually quite bigger than I thought. Don't get me wrong, this will be my Personal fishing brolly system now, BUT I've got 3 little niggles... 1. You actually have to put the 2 side supports to have the full frame support, with the front over the top brolly support. So I don't thinknits a day brolly for me. 2. Too many pockets, so I may remove the netted pockets off the side supports and use just for support only. 3. All the system in a bag is quite heavy. elmoputney 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elmoputney Posted January 23 Report Share Posted January 23 It's a similar set up to my magnetix with 4 posts, you can get away with just the front ones but it never looks as neat lol I like a pocket I would keep them 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carpbell3 Posted January 23 Report Share Posted January 23 Food mixer just turned up... you didn't think I was mixing by hand the odd kilo is one thing knocking out multiples would be hard work just need the caulking gun and steamer. Went with a 4.8 litre can handle a kilo of flour mix for bread dough nice little kitchen aid mixer so should be spot on for the stiffest of mixes. elmoputney 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully this doesn't come across as patronising , but if the inflammation starts spreading along the finger you will seek medical help won't you ? . Are you running a temperature ? . 😃 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
