I’ve never heard of Earthwatch and I assume they have commissioned test kits for the project. I’m also assuming that whomever specified that kit is better qualified than I, but, that is what I would consider a low range Nitrate kit. A testing window for that parameter would typically be 0-100...
Interested in this topic and I think it’s probably a very valuable thing for the Barbel angling community to observe, with these fish becoming scarce our record keeping is quite important really.
In terms of the sexual distinction I’ve never been aware of a marker of differences between male...
I did try braided mainline for this style of fishing years back, admittedly the application would be better now than then but I found that cut offs where more likely and hook pulls more likely. No impact on the catch rate. One thing I feel, and I see no one else mention is that with a braided...
THE safest thing to do is not catch the damn things, it’s an unfortunate truth but it’s the truth but we’re not going to do that are we so best practice is to be a mindful as we can. It’s a bit like crossing the road.
Limiting time out the water so that the fish remains wet, protecting its...
The same reason people throw French words into English sentences and buy over priced shoes from Italy etc etc, the foreign is fancy and it’s been that way long before the British even drank tea. The Romans left Britain over 1500 years ago and people still think flip flops are cool…
My guess, production costs. The Yeti was so different from other models in the VAG range that its production cost was probably a bit high. The Karoq shares its chassis with the VW T Roc and Seat Atec. The reason all the cars look the same these days, is most of them are!
We had the Volvo XC40 until summer. It was spacious but nothing extraordinary, and I have to say I found the build quality a little poor. We had an issue with the electrical tailgate which they took months to fix, admittedly under warranty. My wife liked it, I did not. We test drove a few...
Could you not use a bolt and some washers then use a nut to pull the bearing out the seat, then as the old Haynes manual refitting is the reverse of removal. Effectively make a puller. Be safer on the seat.
The braid colour makes it easier for you, to watch the cast to fish moving water with the bow etc.
I have found that with the Perch using a flouro leader instead of wire helps, I’ve watched them spook on the wire but that is in gin clear water. If I’m doing that then I only use the smallest...
As Joe used the quote above, we get what we deserve. Politicians sell dreams, or visions of the future whatever way you wish to put it. If they thought being more radical would help them to power they’d do it.
The truth is to my mind at least, the average voter doesn’t want more radical, if...
I have to say if I ever found myself voting Labour it would be through gritted teeth but I wouldn’t dare tell anyone else what they should vote. As much as people love to bash the Tories, and faults they have a few… the legacy left by Labour under Tony Blair is a taste I will never forgive or...
Potentially… being slightly skeptical though, is it possible that the opposite is also possible. That dwindling fish stocks are causing them to travel greater ranges to less frequented and less desirable ranges to sustain themselves.
They have definitely been present down here in the southwest...
Do different to any other media really as Joe says. Even print, yes you received something you could hold but the end result is the same, entertainment/information. If it’s behind a pay wall, like a magazine, you either buy it or you don’t…
