phildalton1982 Posted November 8, 2016 Report Share Posted November 8, 2016 Right lads, if you won the lottery what kit would you buy? Money obviously no limit, intrigued to see your answers Sent from my LG-H955 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phildalton1982 Posted November 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2016 Tried, they won't sell it, honestly asked once, the farmer said its for his family, can't put a price on it Sent from my LG-H955 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yonny Posted November 8, 2016 Report Share Posted November 8, 2016 Thinking about it I don't think I'd buy much at all. All my kit is bought because I believe it to be the best on the market to suit my specific requirements. I'm definitely getting one of those ESP Lo Pro Brollys when they're released but at £150 I don't need to win the lottery for that. Maybe I'd upgrade a couple of bits of luggage to some posh Cotswold Aquarius gear for tart factor, but that's about it I reckon.

But its a trendy half mill . In all honesty stick with what i have its works why change , would get better tackle for the local charity though.

bishops Posted November 8, 2016 Report Share Posted November 8, 2016 Not much of my actual kit I would change, it's by no means the best or the worst come to that, but I'm comfortable and happy with it. I've decided what I really need is fishing Sherpa's to get it all to my swim, the downside to fishing some less manicured lakes is the paths can be long, narrow and tricky especially in winter.

phildalton1982 Posted November 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2016 The trouble is Phil, what the tackle firms are touting as the best thing ever will be yesterdays news this time next year......... I've always fancied some decent Free Spirit Rods. They seem to stand the test of time. But , like Yonny I don't need a lottery win for those. Just need to stop wasting the odd £50 here and there on cheap Chinese stuff.Same mate, i do spend most cash on bait hooks n leads Sent from my LG-H955 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phildalton1982 Posted November 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2016 Lost six leads to coots last week.. mind you landed a lovely tufty, probably a pb....... Two more tufties and I would have had the same amount as I have had fish on this lake.Had to go out in the boat last week to retrieve 4 rigs n leads in that tree i fish to, sorry to bring it up but it didnt affect the fishing, boshing around in the boat directly over my spot. Did give me chance to prune the random branch i kept catching on! As for pb birds, that goose gets the award Sent from my LG-H955 using Tapatalk David_Ridgers and B.C. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

salokcinnodrog Posted November 9, 2016 Report Share Posted November 9, 2016 I would hum and hah over a new set of Century rods, and then probably say what the heck and stick with The Ones. I buy my gear as to what is suitable and what I need already pretty much B.C. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smufter Posted November 10, 2016 Report Share Posted November 10, 2016 I'd buy a nice mature lake . The place I go to in France is up for sale. http://www.theretreatlake.com/ I'd buy it in a heartbeat. Beautiful farmhouse with a two bedroomed cottage next door, together with a Gite that sleeps up to six (that's the part we rent). Lake with carp to mid forties, and loads of land. I think it's up for something silly like £325,000.00. I'd have loads left over to employ somebody to maintain it and I'd live (and fish) there for 6 months of the year. If only.
