All three are good but I've currently got hydrotuff on my spools as it just seems 'better' - and that's the thing about lines, everyone has a favourite for logical and sometimes illogical...

    Anyone had any scary/paranormal experiences on the bank?

    Fishing the lower Severn on a summer's evening a few years ago it had been dark for an hour or so and a light mist was forming in the river valley. I heard youthful voices coming from the direction of the car park a couple of fields away and saw bobbing lights from a couple of mobile phones...

    Isotopes

    I changed rods at Christmas and endured endless problems with line looping over the Enterprise holder when it was between the tip and first ring on the new rods. I then repositioned it on the tip ring - where you have put yours. Just like magic, I've had no more tangles.
