Hmmmmm! Just found another to make a pair a few months ago but still tempted!!!!

I've tried a few over the years but I pretty much copy this one now. I leave one or two things out but the basic recipe is good.

For tackle grave yards I hammer home made leads flat. I have an adjustable mould that has a plunger to make leads from 4-9oz, it's a sea lead mould but the fish don't know that. I haven't done side by side comparisons but I reckon a flattened 4oz will hold as well as a 6oz bomb.

I've had mates ask me to do the same, I just tell them to join the forum and ask themselves, if they're serious buyers they will, if they're tyre kickers they won't.

Up for sale for a reason, usually financial. Could be a good investment if it's easily accessible for diners and stop overs. My partner and me regularly browse google maps and book a room for no other reason than a meal and short break and the hotels that offer reasonable rates are usually very...

I was told by a staff member that Westlake is Gooutdoors own brand.

Threads go off on a tangent, it's the nature of forums and this particular tangent came about by safer, alternative suggestions! I think your "outrage" is misplaced!

I'd install outside and pipe through the wall but they are safe to use indoors if, as said earlier, they are exhausted efficiently. I'd always employ the use of a CO monitor too!

Waste oil is illegal and nothing to do with emissions. It's because of tax/duty. Got to be unlucky to get caught using it though. Diesel heaters are perfectly safe if exhausted properly, I'm considering one for the living room, installed outside and piped in through a redundant vent from when...

I have a pair of 11' 9" Avons from the same range as Chris mentions above, the PM-XS. It took me bloody ages to find the second to make a pair. Absolutely fantastic rods for off the peg!

I'd happily use them for both. Close to medium range carp fishing where big chucks aren't required and big/flood river barbel fishing, in fact, any water barbel fishing.

Really??

Front drag reels are easy to fine tune against the current, if you get a "tick over" as you put it, you can either slacken off the drag a touch more or let a bow of line out a bit at a time until it stops. You have to do the same with the bait runner function anyway!

PM Connor!

Just for anyone's interest, I found it Here They actually came recommended after I found and bought from them.

Well my search is finally over, I found one the other day and after a haggle got it for £179 posted. It was listed at £189.99 plus £22.50 p&p. I said I was willing to pay top dollar and it looks like I had to but I'm smiling about it:)

Tench, perch and roach on "carp" waters can give great rewards. I seldom carp fish now but I regularly fish carp waters;)

If it's only 2ft deep and quite still, I'd just sink my rod tip under the water and free line/touch ledger with the tip pointing directly at the bait.

A pair of shimmy Aero 10000xte's are on my 2.25lb rods.

What's a wet net🤣
