Definitely, not as comfy as the Avid. I always find with my bulk I have to stretch the bungee chord every now and then when I hit the frame. 5 hours ago, salokcinnodrog said: Sonik on the other hand, everything I got has had problems. Sk-tec recliner chair with extending legs that won't stay extended, only good on a level bank, rods where the liners fall out of the rod rings. I won't entertain buying anything from them now. As above the Sonik rods I've had are prone to falling apart. I tried to claim on the lifetime guarantee and get ignored. I wouldn't waste my money on their kit. Buy cheap, buy twice & all that jh92 and salokcinnodrog 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elmoputney Posted August 22, 2023 Report Share Posted August 22, 2023 Got some more J precision hooks delivered today All size 3 advanced wide gape, long gape and curves, I've also got some ZR to treat them with no more rusty hooks for me. The LG'S look a bit good, long and have a sticky sharp beaked point 👌 I've also respooled my spod reel with the Ngt braid, seems alright tbh, should cast well as it is quite thin 0.28mm , I've added a shock leader to be on the safe side. Did you know its take your tackle box to work day? Need to make some new rigs and booms later 😂 crusian and commonly 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I refuse to buy camping cooking kit. Camping cooking pans are simply only good enough to reheat ready meals, boil in the bag or warm tinned foods, beans, spaghetti or Staggs etc. I cook proper meals so I need decent pans, a proper frying pan, a real saucepan, and of course bialetti for real coffee. The saucepan is from memory, a milkpan, and I've had that for 15years, nothing expensive, the basic steel version, think it was from Sainsburys. My frying pan is over 20years old, no non-stick, but has been properly seasoned and aged. These decent cooking items don't take up much space, and mean you can cook proper food so much better.

Probably not cheap, some are on discount as updates are due. I'm sure there is a sleep system. https://www.solartackle.co.uk/products/chairs-bedchairs I do have the basic Solar bedchair, and it's probably the most comfortable I have used. 100% agree. I've got a solar bed and by far its the best I've had in how it's made and how comfortable it is. salokcinnodrog 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
