elmoputney Posted April 1, 2020 Report Share Posted April 1, 2020 I still haven't found the time to go through it once yet 😭 I need to respool all my lines and everything, I have just bought a spooler and d spool drill attachment, the thought of another manual despool was too much, I think that may be why I have been putting it off 😂 yonny and crusian 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone is happy I got rid of the line the goody goody is happy they’ve done a a good turn and the dog has had a run salokcinnodrog, elmoputney and crusian 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
... Posted April 1, 2020 Report Share Posted April 1, 2020 Went through all mine about 2 week ago... Think I may re-spool at weekend, the line I have on now isn't that old so I'll put on a spare spool and put the top line to the bottom of spool so bottom becomes fresh line 😁 I keep thinking of things for my gear, but there's only so many rigs to make, so many PVA sticks/bags. I'm in the process of hopefully swapping/selling my 2 Man bivvy for a Brolly System. Hopefully soon, when the lockdown finished 🤞🤞 yonny 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

emmcee Posted April 1, 2020 Report Share Posted April 1, 2020 I've cleaned all my sea fishing gear, rods and reels cleaned and serviced. Rig tying next . Then once that's completed it will be the carp gear. Not touched it for over 6 months so will need a good sort out. Luckily I've plenty of time so it seems.

Then maybe both my bedchairs and bags for the SK Tek system. Then an SKtek armchair for father's Day, Then a Vader X Pod 😁😁😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

salokcinnodrog Posted April 18, 2020 Report Share Posted April 18, 2020 I've started going through mine at long last, although I had respooled my reels just before the start of lockdown. Some fresh rigs tied yesterday. I cut down the rigs which I had tied for Bromeswell as I'm not going to be using size 10's on Alton, need at least a size 6 on there, whereas Bromeswell has a maximum size 10 rule. The size 10 Solar 101's will be checked and used for floater fishing for carp and chub. The bomb site that my tackle box had become will be tidied, maybe even cleaned if I get that bored. Unfortunately I don't have the space to sort and clean my bivvies, all three of them, might have to do them in front of my flat on the concrete. The landing net mesh needs repairing or replacing, I managed to rip it pike fishing, catching a set of trebles on it, making one big hole when I landed a double figure pike out of the ressie.

Mine is like that, but as soon as she finds a job i do it, then they all build up, then as soon as I ask for something/to go fishing it's an OK. My motto is, sooner to do it, then it's done sooner 😁 I've only got to Jetwash the paths round house and finish front pointing(friend maybe paid to do this now). crusian 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

commonly Posted April 18, 2020 Report Share Posted April 18, 2020 DIY and decorating under way! Fabsil on order, it's about time I cleaned and protect the bivvy. Not so sure I've got the time for cleaning all my gear though! Back to work next week 😕 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
