Also tried 1 of the PVA bags I bought....Rod Hutchinson Medium Extra Fill (didn't realise)... Ran the tap to as cold as possible, put a hand full of pebbles out the garden, lick n twist....must have only been about 10/15seconds, all melted. Also had a look at my 12mm pop ups to put in a bag, might trim em.down before going in the bag to jusssst slowly settle between a pop up and wafter. dalej2014 and elmoputney 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Earlier today I bought some avid D rig spinner kickers because I saw them on fb they look mint, I didn't just buy loads of stuff I didn't really need lol And I've got my DIY deeper WiFi booster up and running now, just need to finish the case test it works properly and I'll do a thread on it, So what you are saying , Elmo , is there was no money left for toys ? . 🙄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elmoputney Posted April 14, 2023 Report Share Posted April 14, 2023 Well it's my getting older day today and I got the best gift possible, fishing tackle shop vouchers 😍 I've taken the kids to inflatabounce and luckily for me the tackle shop is just over the road. I treated myself to a Gardner GTN landing net, and some particles for tomorrow. Still came out with change too nice, I was concerned I didn't manage to spend it all but it means I can try again another day 😂 dalej2014 and commonly 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elmoputney Posted April 19, 2023 Report Share Posted April 19, 2023 (edited) I managed to bend my old distance sticks last week, so I bought some NGT DELUXE ones for £12 have to say they are pretty good for the price seem solid aluminium have cnc cut bits in them, slimline (standard pencil thickness) not a bad set of sticks for the money.

If you like hydrotuff, gt80+ is also a good alternative Ive been getting on fine with that for a while now. I've not used gthd before so can't compare it to that though, but Gardner line is usually decent I've actually bought an attx deluxe receiver today, I have the non deluxe one but I got fed up with the double beep first everytime. Scares the poop out of me. I also liked the fact I could change tones for each alarm 🤔 Non fishing purchases I've bought an air fryer 😂 B B 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunno I haven't tried them yet but my thinking is that it will just reduce those annoying wraps where it seems to slip off the stick and have to stop and go back round,but by the time you've got there you have lost your train of thought and how many you were on so you have to start again 🤯 B B and commonly 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
