    Items you have purchased to use while fishing without paying carp tax

    Not so much bought, but I acquired 12kg of lead. We were fitting new doors and windows in brum, the old windows that came off were all leaded... so I went round with my scraper and took the lot off. 12kg of lead equals to 105 4oz lead weights, I've just got to get a lead mould now.👍🏻

    Dewalt Usb charger.

    It would probably last a month when its connected to this bad boy, 54v 6ah flexvolt I've got to say it's a lot heavier than the 5ah, they also do the 9 ah and 12 ah batteries. These batteries come with a cover to protect the terminals when being transported. You definitely would not want one of...

    Dewalt Usb charger.

    I just thought I'd share this, as I am a multi trade operative, that's what they call us nowadays by the way. My job is doing pretty much anything in the construction industry, so obviously I have all the battery power tools, I spotted this little gadget on flea bay, it just slides on to the...

    Line choice

    I use dyneema spectre braid, and I swear by it, I've had it on my shimano's for a least 6 yrs, I will be changing it though this year, 9 and a half quid off the bay, you cant grumble, I was a bit sceptical at first using braid, I've heard a few horror stories of braid filleting fish...

    Your favourite Blockend feeders

    I love kamasan black caps, I have always used them and will always use them, cheap as you like, plus I make my own leads that I drill and zip tie to them. Happy days.

    Korum Barbel Rods?

    After selling my korum opportunist rods which were good but not a barbel rod I decided to go for 2 11ft 1.75lb tc korum barbel rods, and I have to be honest for the money.... well they are absolutely fantastic! They coped extremely well with a very very flooded river severn back in November. And...

    Strange Hookbaits....

    I had a carp of 9lb on Hawthorne berries off the back of my nan and grandads boat where it was permanently moored, obviously there was a Hawthorne tree present, my grandad reckoned the fish might have got used to the berries falling in and started feeding on them. Which makes sense🤔. Who...

    Shimano 5000 re baitrunner parts

    Morning all, I was oiling my baitrunners and I noticed that the rear drag knob on one of them was a bit stiff so I took out the screw and released the knob and the threaded grey plastic part is broken, can anyone shed any light on this part, and if it's still available to purchase, the only...
