Roughtor Posted June 7 Report Posted June 7 One good thing about these jake rakes is that if you get snagged badly, the prongs are made to 'give ' a little ,so it's easier to get back ,and the prongs can be bent back into position easily .. It's part of the design..I use mine fair bit kevtaylor 1 Quote

yonny Posted Monday at 06:54 Report Posted Monday at 06:54 Well as purchases go they don't come much more exciting than a new home and a return to my beloved Nene Valley. Carpy in more ways than one; I'll be 3 miles way from the Valley itself and there's also koi to 30lb+ swimming around in the back garden! Offer was accepted on Friday so now I just pray that nothing goes wrong and we're not waiting too long. jh92, elmoputney, framey and 9 others 11 1 Quote

kevtaylor Posted Thursday at 08:55 Report Posted Thursday at 08:55 (edited) Just ordered a fireproof charging bag (Amazon) for my fishing batteries, big enough to store them in too. Too many horror stories, should have bought one long ago. Edited Thursday at 08:56 by kevtaylor Golden Paws, yonny, commonly and 1 other 4 Quote

elmoputney Posted 17 hours ago Report Posted 17 hours ago I've bought some prepared particle as I was too lazy to prep it myself 20kg of carp particles dark mix and some garlic oil. commonly, yonny and kevtaylor 3 Quote

There's a video online of a guy who's batteries exploded in the van on the way fishing, scary. I'd started changing mine in the garden due to the risk, so the bag seems like a must for storage and charging. elmoputney 1 Quote
