    New born baby formula for boilies/paste

    Hi Colin. It depends on the strength of the flavour you are using. From memory I used 8 or 10 medium eggs per kg of that base mix so it's just a case of dividing the recommended flavour dosage per kg by 10. You'll probably start around 0.5ml per egg assuming the flavour rate is likely to be...

    New born baby formula for boilies/paste

    Hi Colin Caught plenty on a simple base mix comprising 1/3rds of baby milk powder, soya flour and semolina plus flavour and a colour. Mix with eggs. You could add other liquids, oils, spices etc.

    Free Spirit Tamer Heavy Water 12ft 2.75lb

    Yes, it's quite a slim handle but I've tried standard 6010 bait runners, the medium longcast XTA baitrunner, Shimano original big longcasts and Okuma 6k LS baitrunners. All fit on fine. Incidentally, I think the 13 footers are great rods for high water or where you need to cast heavier feeders...

    Free Spirit Tamer Heavy Water 12ft 2.75lb

    Probably of no help to you but the 13ft 40mm Tamer Heavy Water has a Fuji reel fitting which has a tube section with an outside diameter of 18 mm and accepts the bigger size reel feet found on 6000 and big pit size reels

    36inch replacement deep mesh

    Check out Angling Direct Advanta brand spare 36'' mesh. Currently £5.99 Been using one on a Gardner specialist frame for the last 12 months. I like it more than the original mesh. It's not super deep but it's deeper than the original Gardner mesh and I've found it fine for resting fish.

    Delkim ev-d

    But just be aware that Delkim do not support their older products. Repairs are possible by other businesses like Dalectronics, who I've found to be excellent, but don't rely on Delkim for repairs of their own older products.

    Avoiding bream !!

    Have a look at the 'Bollox/cks' rig originated by carpers to deter bream pickups. And yes, it works and no, it's not a wind-up.

    Zander Fishing. Boat hire share.

    It was great to meet up with a fellow BFWer and get afloat to do something a bit different. Graham's knowledge and experience got us off to a flying start and although I was on 'pest control' with a couple of very modest specimens it was most enjoyable. Sure, the weather could have been more...

    10ft rods…..

    You pays your money and takes your choice. The wychwood fltr are cork handle, smallish rings, reliable blank ( my better Half's used hers for general carp fishing for 3 or 4 years now and had dozens of fish to high 20s) and inexpensive. Good for lines up to 12lb or so and down to 8lb (or maybe...
