    A few hours on La Belle Charente

    At the end of the day mate a barbel is a barbel, whether it 3lb up to 9lb and I bet they still fight like demons. Maybe one day that elusive double will show up. All we can do is keep trying.

    Rod Rest Angle adaptors

    The preston ones are quite exceptional for the price. The teeth on the pivotal mechanism inter lock and are quite solid. I did purchase some stainless Steel ones off the bay, but turned out to be dog shit.

    Just made some of these up now, 10 quid for 36 green hair rollers off the bay. I'm gonna leave the green velcro for an extra bit of camouflage. As opposed to leaving them white.
