Been unloading the barrow completely and packing it all in the bivvy for the last 15 years or so..

Carpbell3 Posted March 18 Report Share Posted March 18 Three stripes of thinking angler spliced leadcore and I'm not a happy chap, gone through three different splicing needles trying to splice my kryston leadcore all of them snapped so the TA pre splices with no bits it is. Not bad a lot more supple than the Kryston, also got a set of the Korda inline skyliners. Roll on next week. jh92 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the UK army Norgie and UBAC tops. In fact sat in the bivvy right now in MTP trousers, UBAC, fleece although 'cos it's wet outside, welly boots rather than combat boots. Talking of combat boots, the Nitehawks I was using seem to have changed, the inner sole collapses so I have bought myself some Savage Island boots: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/380842363396?itmmeta=01HSDN531KJ4J8JG9WRC00P30D&hash=item58abf94a04:g:eqkAAOSwr69bMOHB&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAAA0Aqn5xGsWe9mKXSfZuuebWmnpWgRxu0rGa%2B27QA%2Fy0QbSpxTruE1ojQ0paqOxchn%2F0f5VmzptqQvMrbkgMi7USdkZAtG6qi2WdFhdpxrvhyoRFXRNxbeEtqkkI8Ff%2FcZWyA1pasWrYiNm7oRvXufCuU1oGrsaNvxlxkgUm8QS26Ge1PvhmVimtv9GCDG97HSDilLgqyUNINN2NVD02bbie%2FeRUarwzZXyfoTYWB5ZN7B%2BZHaLgexuNysKd2QBGReANjaLSARe%2ByCwT5PJbY5%2FvI%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR-6wlLXLYw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

commonly Posted April 8 Report Share Posted April 8 Renewal of res ticket. Gone up £40??? For what?? I'm not too sure I'm getting my moneys worth. However, after visiting a commercial day ticket recently, I feel very lucky to fish there and have all the space I could ever want😊 Now, I just need the time to put in a bit of effort and find the fish salokcinnodrog, dalej2014, elmoputney and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
