    Bobco - In Administration

    I know what you mean Alan. In the days when I had a proper job which involved me being a company "doctor", pre the '85 act I could almost smell how a business was doing just by walking in a viewing. I still have it too. Truly saddened by the news.

    Bobco - In Administration

    Their Web site doesn't seem to work currently. When I came back to fishing 15 years ago I bought everything from them that I felt I needed. First class people prices and stock. If they have fallen , and I felt they were as good as it gets in tackle, who on earth can survive.

    Hardy15' float rod on eBay?

    I said similar about the middy when the launched the quartix feeder. At 50% more than their top then offering, for a maker with poor redidual values on their used rods, that it was a very brave move. I felt they were either a misguided act of desperation or an inspired product. Having got a...

    Narrow Drum Speedia

    My uncle bought a new Anglia about '55. Paid me to clean it. Chrome bumper rusted in months so used autosol. When bumper disintegrated later he swore it was my fault for using the chrome cleaner. Living in a poluted Hackney probably had more to do with it. Ha.

    Shimano Aero 4000 feeder FA Now sold

    never thought of that Cliff. It goes with the lovely FSI fine but I have never had a cadence so have now put that on. Can always change my mind though, ha! I have a sportex medium float which chucks 40g which I use with a polaris, ie ledger floating. Maybe that's a use on there too! Tried the...

    Shimano Aero 4000 feeder FA Now sold

    For sale, nice used condition, complete with box, papers, shims, spare spool etc. Bought from a pal to go on the fsi but then decided to buy the new cadence 4k listed on the site instead, so being surplus to requirements is only reason for sale. Looking for £85 delivered.

    I think this is entirely true Richard. When I was into concourse cars,owners used tooth brushes to clean the mud/ grass out of the tyre tread. That's when I gave up. These things are to be used fgs.
