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 ? . 😃 Thanks guys went to the quacks this morning about it, so far the skin isn't dying, been given anti biotics and stuff for it, have got to keep an eye on it if it spreads or gets worse, looks worse today than yesterday but doesn't hurt as much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully your antibiotics will kick in soon , and your finger will start to get better . 😃 elmoputney 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elmoputney Posted January 29 Report Share Posted January 29 Esp QC Ronnie clips and tungsten sleeves, I'm going next gen Ronnie's this year, and these are a solution, I decided kickers are OK but they aren't shrink tubing I also wanted to do away with bait screws and go to using hairs, so knocking up the hook section in advance is the future for me did a few today, I think these will also be suitable for wafters and snowmans and that, the added bonus of the ronnie clips is the booms could also be used for hinged stiff rigs, so I can switch between Ronnie's and chods easy as that for a pretty complete one stop rig shop, B B 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
