    Pool: Archimedean hydro electric screw

    How much noise do they make? I can't imagine they are silent.

    Wanted - Bedchair

    Will probably only use 2 or 3 times a year so just looking for a decent condition second hand one or any recomendations on a budget model. Not big or heavy so a standard model would do the job.

    Fluoro & Mono breaking strains

    For me: Palomar for swivel to the main line. Loop to swivel for the hook link. Don't like flouro for knotless knot.

    Tight Lines...

    Was disappointed this week as I thought it had the potential to be a good'un. Maybe if he comes back on when the rivers are fishable it'd be of more interest...... Last weeks was pretty good. Especially the clip of the 5lb + perch!!

    Licence

    Ordered mine yesterday. No problems. They send you an email that you can print off and use if you get asked.

    Also had a look at some Shimano DL4000FA at lunch time that look like a solid good mid price alternative.

    Thanks Bob, those 4000D's look just the job.

    James, Shimano for me too. Got a couple of the AERO RE 5000 LIMITED EDITION which I like. Only gripe would be that the clutch / drag does not seem to kick in smoothly. Are there other Shimano models with better clutch? Is front or rear drag generally smoother?

    Perch

    There was a 5+ on Tightlines last week and that looked big enough!!!

    Interested in people opinions. New and old models, all brands what do you think is the best?

    So who is enjoying the closed season?

    2 weeks in and not enjoying it at all. :(

    What do you use?

    Korum Ruckbag (great side pouch for flask), Korum Maxi Rig Manager (great bit of kit) and a medium soft box (leads, feeders and alarms if required) carries pretty much all I need. Bulk is food and bait.

    It says it all?

    Too much time for thinking. Not enough time for fishing.

    An alternative viewpoint?

    A good read. :)
