    New reels ?

    sharpy86 replied to chillfactor's topic in Carp Fishing Tackle and Equipment

    I’ve got the Ci4s in 5500 - absolutely stunning reels. Wouldn’t think twice about getting the 14000’s if I needed the extra distance. You won’t regret it. Make sure you play around with the washers to adjust the line lay. Mine came more front heavy. A thick and a thin washer sorted that out - nice and flat.

    Just to follow up on this, I’m using new 15lb Technium Black that I’ve just spooled onto my reels. Not having any of the problems you mentioned above, so must have been a dodgy batch. It hangs limply between eyes, no cooling what-so-ever.

    Opinions please

    sharpy86 replied to greekskii's topic in UK Carp Fishing

    I completely agree it was a surface caught fish. However, it sounds like you are doubting it, as when you set the challenge to yourself, you made an assumption that it would be a controller / free lined caught fish. Therefore, to satisfy yourself, get out there in this hot weather and fire out some mixers!!!

    Any recommendations?

    sharpy86 replied to PhilG1960's topic in Carp Fishing Tackle and Equipment

    IMO avoid the fishing manufactures, and go for a decent walking boot.

    I assumed that the figure quoted by BC included that - hence the difference?

    Who still ?

    sharpy86 replied to chillfactor's topic in UK Carp Fishing

    Majority of my bottom bait fishing is using a double 15mm boilie, and a long hair to a size 6 curve shank hook. Very rarely get hook pulls.

    What is your newest purchase

    sharpy86 replied to adders60's topic in UK Carp Fishing

    They have arrived! Oh man they are gorgeous! Light weight and a perfect size to pair with my Free Spirit ES (12ft - 2.75lb). Just waiting on the spool of Technium Black to load onto them. Got a quick overnighter planned for Wednesday.
