bluelabel Posted March 9 Report Share Posted March 9 The Nash Indulgence Wideboy is dead comfy for a racing snake like me... its long though, and when I use my titan hide, you need to put it in at an angle otherwise it can touch the sides... not an issue with a JRC STi 2man... with the Frostbite 5 season bag its toasty warm... but its a heavy old beast... I mean bloomin heavy, I leave the bag on the chair and use compression straps to keep it folded jh92 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decisions decisions 😂 I'm mad because I don't have a tackle shop near me since mine closed down, I think the next proper store is probably 100 miles away so don't really have a chance to look at items anymore 😬 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks mate 👍 Your not supposed to take any bait since we left the EU .... but from what I understand its just something there not policing. Might hide the worms behind most of the kit though Every time I've been to France fishing I've been pulled out of the line & searched.... not that i look dodgy or anything Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see up to Tuesday next week & looking a little milder than its been ... pressure also starts dropping Monday afternoon & moon phases are is good as it gets all week , not seen any catch reports this week the lads the week before had two fish out all week between 4 of them (1st openingweek ). There's only two of us going so plenty of options to move etc the lakes 6 acres.

It's nice and light compared to what I already use. The clip that holds the net up is rubbish, doesn't hold it up at all just falls off as soon as I try clipping it in, i will probably remove the ring attached off the bottom of the net, looks like a guaranteed snag on the reservoir I fish 😂 The weigh sling is nice and so are the clothes 👌 Highy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'd need the CX Rover, with 2 piece handle, as he uses a small rod bag for his 6ft rods. Something that will definitely need, the only he haven't got to finish off his setup.

elmoputney Posted March 16 Report Share Posted March 16 (edited) I'm looking for a new net does anyone know if the sonik Vader net or cx net has a standard 3/8 handle thread for the block or is it one of those stuck on spreader blocks?

The Sonik RS landing net has a removal spreader block as you can buy a new 1 seperate for them. Also just seen you can get the CX speader block separately too, just trying look for more info.... elmoputney 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highy Posted March 16 Report Share Posted March 16 Looking for a sleeping bag for little en, at moment using a Packaway Vango 2 season. (Blue 1) I'm after an actual bedchair bag that can be left on, but a decent 1 I can find is the Cygnet 3 season 1, everywhere local sold out (cant buy online, cash only). Even decent 2nd hand bags now going for near RRP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Discovery cx landing net mate, the net handle doesn't split 👍 my only gripe with it is the clip that holds the net up, but to be fair I've got this far with out using one so isn't really an issue 😂 I've got ngt 2 piece handle I bought years ago I use it with my 9ft rod set. Even though its done by ngt the quality of it is solid 👍 Highy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
