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. Forest view carp lake near limoges, first time going to this particular venue so going blind so to speak . jh92 and kevtaylor 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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 👌 ... 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, 2023 Report Share Posted March 16, 2023 (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...

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 👍 ... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
