I still wear the first pair of Muckboots that I purchased at least 10 years ago, they are my go to winter footwear ;)

I purchased some Grubbs after years of using Muckboots. Wrong decision. Muckboots are by far a better product. As the saying goes "you get what you pay for"

Either way, each to their own (including Terry Simner ;))

Hi all Yes it is as above 😁 I have two and stand by my assertion that it is the best chair for travelling light;)

Until you add the various attachments ;)

JRC Stealth X lite for me, no better chair for roving on the market ;) Accessory chairs are by their nature HEAVY;) Just my opinion of course but based on many years of experience:rolleyes:

Because, as you know Terry, it's not rocket science mate, although you could be forgiven for thinking it is. Location and feed are the key elements, after that if you have a decent bait on a decent rig, in the right place , it will catch ;)

Just checked, has a very well fitted piece of cork in the male joint. Maybe the decals are just not as nice as the older ones on my 'Avon Angling' 1.5 TC pair which I bought several years ago? Top sections on those are shorter than butt sections as described in my earlier post.

Have Harrison rods ever been faked? The reason I ask is that I have a 11' 'Avon' 1lb 6oz which I'm not entirely convinced is right? The decals look cheap and I was also told that a feature of Harrison two piece blanks is that the tip section is always a little shorter when packed away to...

Hi Richard, I agree on most counts, however, this is a product that is produced in large numbers with in my experience no instructions on "Best Practice" and as such should be more durable. We are not all budding engineers and although I , like you have nursed my original handle and a second...

I have two twist locks which I have 'nursed through' over the last few years but still can't understand how a company as big as Drennan hasn't sorted this design fault out yet???

I also usually use Carp King but Paul Potter now has his own bait brand (KLIPS which is awesome) and also does a great deal on PVA (£32 for 100m I believe.

Cork every time, so much so that I had the small piece of duplon above the real seat of my Harrison's replaced as I hated it and thinking of having my original Greys Prodigy duplon butts replaces as well :p

I wish Lidl would bring back their brilliant small holdall with the 6 boxes in the pockets, the bag is superb for the roaming or static Barbel angler. I purchased 2 about 10 years ago and they are now starting to show their age, much sturdier and better made than Aldi equivalent which I rarely...

I have a Hyundai Tucson (my third) and find it perfect for my fishing needs. The newer versions like many modern cars don't have a spare tyre and as such have turned that space into storage which allows me to carry all my spare bait and smaller items of tackle with me out of sight at all times...

I recently bought the Korum Graphite Brolly/Shelter which is the same but has side panels and does come with storm caps already fitted although I moved them up one place which is a vast improvement. It is a great bit of kit and the side panels allow for much more protection of you and your gear ;)

No RRP on their site? How much?

I use the Klips range of pellets and can say with no question that they and their boilies have caught me many wonderful fish. My personal choice is garlic Klips, paste, pellets and boilies😉 What most people probably don't know is that the whole bait range is based on the original Elipse recipe...

I use Kent Particles, although not giant hemp, which means it leaves a feeder perfectly, it is pre cooked and perfect for geting down into the gravel which makes the fish have to grub around for it. https://www.kentparticles.co.uk/carp-bait/particles/prepared-particles/7/1114

Lovely courtship pics Dave especially the fish presentation from the cock bird ;)
