The_Viking_Angler

Oex pot/pan set. Comes with 2 pots(1.4L &1.6L), a frying pan and some small plastic bowls and all packs up in itself. Getting a lil bit bored of the same stuff on the toastie maker each session so these will make the longer sessions a little bit more varied in terms of food choice

I've used Dynamite's ready made stuff for ages and can't fault them

The stage stands look and feel decent enough, nice big thread to secure bank sticks. The screw it comes with could be bit bigger that that is easily replaced. I have 4 of the NGT stainless steel bank sticks which i have had and used quite a lot for about 4 years now and i haven't had a problem with them personally. What i do find with their stuff sometimes is that you can get bad batch of items which i think then gives them a bad name.

Got my fishing license in the post today. Also got a order from bank tackle delivered yesterday, hooks, swivels, PVA, ect. First Aid Kit for the tackle bag - Thought it was about time i added one, better safe than sorry. NGT Stage Stands - haven't really used NGT for a while but they're stainless steel so can't be that bad,

Both fixed and adjustable have their different pros and cons mate, just about using the best one for your situation. Again, fox have two recent videos which covers both set ups and the different advantages they offer. 3.5oz will be fine mate, I usually use 3oz.

Hi Mate, In terms of which colour foam to use, it's all down to preference but my rule of thumb is if your fishing in the upper half of the water, then i use black foam and if your fishing in the lower half, then use a brighter colour. My thinking behind this is that when the carp are looking up, black will stand out against the bright sky, when they look down, a bright colour like yellow will stand out against the dark bed of the lake. This isn't a stead fast rule however, as any colour will work in any situation but its just a rough guide to work from. The easiest way to net t

Smashing it mate

Definitely going to remember that, i suffer quite bad with bites, never used to but recent years have seen me get quite a few bad ones which usually results in antibiotics. Ah that makes sense

I didn't know Avon Skin so soft also worked as a bug repellent, i might give that ago so it might not make me feel too uncomfortable and oily.

Hi guys, I'm stocking up on bug repellent for the summer and just wondering if anyone has used the mosquito spiral candles(link below) and are they any good? I try and avoid using the skin cream/spray stuff because it always makes me feel to oily. https://www.gooutdoors.co.uk/15893027/lifesystems-mosquito-coils-15893027

I also have the XL easy Mat but in green, kept losing the camo one 😂 Agree that they're great Mats and I probably wouldn't use anything else now. Thanks for the idea for pet points though, hadn't thought about windy nights lol

Cheers Fella, I had the TFG Trukka Barrow but recently sold it. The balancing on it was awful and even though was a great size, was just so heavy and awkward to transport i decided it was time for a change, I saw someone back in Winter with the Fox barrow and i have been thinking about it ever since

I must admit, i have never been the most mobile angler in the world, well in Carp fishing but i plan on making a bit more of an effort with being mobile with the new barrow. Once its been delivered, i will do a test load in the garden and take a photo One of the reasons i went with all the camolite stuff so it would be perfect for the barrow so it would makes things easier to move ect.

That's exactly it mate 😃 Its the law...
