He bought his the week they came out. The rear windows had no cover when rolled up. When I got mine I noticed it. So I contacted sonik and the sent him a full new Bivvy System Skin.

You have PM thanks Just swapped over the old Bivvy Skin for the New 1....looks like a Brand New Bivvy Now 😁😁, just need clean the Groundsheet. worst bit of the bivvy was the Storm Pole attachments, abit of a clean with WD40 n a toothbrush, dried before going back in bag. Was left over with the below, Full Bivvy Skin, Full Front, Extra door options, Zip Bivvy Bag. elmoputney and barry211 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ouchthathurt Posted February 7 Report Share Posted February 7 Just brought a new Steve Neville buzzer to replace a buzzer with a cracked case, it arrived a few days ago - but didn’t work! I took the back off and saw that one of the contacts hadn’t been soldered! To be fair, the company I brought it off replaced it immediately, no questions asked - it’s a manufacturing fault that they couldn’t foresee so can’t blame them really, my new, er, new alarm should be here tomorrow. why didn’t I just not send the alarm off for a replacement case? Good question! I’ll do that too… £30 to repair. I’ve also got a neville that drains the battery in under an hour, it must be shorting out somewhere, £20 to fix that. Speculate £50 and I’ll have 5 good as new Neville alarms. B B and commonly 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nash worm liquid Reading up on the place, naturals seem to do more bites than boilies, so I'm going out my comfort zone a bit Funnily enough one of the biggest fish in our syndicate came out on maggots last season at her heaviest ever weight, although she was also caught just after spawning twice on boilies. I had results over my collection of collected snails bloodworm, worms, molehill soil and particles with boilies. commonly 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

salokcinnodrog Posted March 5 Report Share Posted March 5 I've been and spent far too much on sea gear recently after catching some decent thornback rays on the Suffolk coast.

That's a big shore caught ray! They appear to have moved away this week though, but the crabs are active so they might move back into the area if the weather stays calm. If not, the whiting caught are still fun. dalej2014, jh92 and finchey 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
