    A follow up on the Absolutely Gutted (Hate or Love)

    Two different rods, seeker is a traditional through action rod, but the butt has enough power when you need it. Torrix is more tippy, it has a softer tip and the power comes from the lower 3 quarter if that make sense. When playing fish, I prefer seeker, the blank feels more “alive”, it just...

    Dead maggots for trotting?

    Good advice, thanks guys. I will definitely try to keep them alive as long as possible. I do have a few poly boxes that I use as wormery, and there must be one or two spare ones. I will definitely try the ice bag, and make sure there’s no air in the bag.

    Well, with my local tackle shop closed, I am in a position where I have to buy the maggots online. It is more financially efficient to buy a 1/2 or a gallon, but that's more than what I need for a session, and I've been banned from putting the maggots in the fridge, so I have to put them in my...
