Yes I have a Sportster. Has two settings: off and burnt.

I had one v similar to the NGT model for times when I would have extra stuff and couldn't get on with it. Found it hard to load effectively with a bag (a box would have been OK) and it wasn't very stable. Bought a second hand daiwa barrow last year like the one Jason mentioned and it's been OK...

Unused extension system to make a Fox Brolly shelter bigger. Green shelter in a camo carry bag with pegs and groundsheet. £125. Tricky to post so would prefer to meet in N or Central Bham or Westminster/Euston area London.

Thanks Graham. Most of my perch fishing with live baits has been on small ponds with small baits rather than more demanding situations. And from your previous posts I can confidently say you've had more success with stripes than I have!

Everyone's opinion on rods is different but I think they might be a bit harsh for light lining. I have some 0.75lb Rods I use for perch. If you'd like a chat with the seller PM me your contact number and I'll ask him to give you a call. Nic

Swapped to Technium Black in Jan 19 after reading countless line reviews and used it for both carp and barbel in 10, 12 and 15lb. First impressions were great. Have since binned the three unused spools I have and stripped it off all my reels. Found it to rapidly loose strength and have the...

Thanks John, that's much appreciated.

Thanks Steve. Still for sale!

Thanks Steve. Could you pm me your number? I've had an expression of interest from a member on here but if that doesn't pan out it'd be good to put them on Faceache for our mutual friend as he's not on that platform either.

I recall they were highly rated by lots of anglers. I know someone who used a pair for all his carp fishing until they were stolen from a garden shed. Having Terry Eustace's shop a short bike ride away meant I knew a lot of people with T24s, T31s and Big Tench Rods. Even had some of his rods...

Hi Clive, thanks for the suggestion. I'll pass it on to him. ATB Nic

Advertised for a friend: A pair of Terry Eustace Big Tench Rods. 11ft 1lb 2oz tc, medium taper. Excellent condition. Hardly ever used, owned by my mate from new. Black blanks (never varnished), handles rebuilt last year with Fuji reel seat, fresh epoxy applied to whippings. Fuji rings...

Malc. As others have said, Bob at Angling Direct Bham (formerly Fosters) does strip and rewhips. I've seen his work and he does a consistently good job but you would expect that from someone who has been at it for 40 years (more or less). If I didn't do my own builds/repairs I would trust him to...

Well done Jim. Been a while since our paths crossed but I see you are still hauling.!

I too have some bits and bobs - rod sleeves, net floats, leads bag. All good quality, have lasted well and cost less than other brands. Wouldn't hesitate to look at NGT for other kit when I need it.

Back to the OP's question: used original krank hooks and found them bendy, partly straightening on occasions. Nice pattern and although I haven't tried the x version I would do if I run out of ESP Raptors.

Had mine 5 years. Use it with small and large gas canisters. Great stove and very compact. Can be used as an ordinary stove with the the folding pan support or to boil water/cook boil in the bag stuff etc. Not the cheapest tho.

I always thought there was a lot of crushed biscuit in CLO giving it a sweetness. Might be wrong though. Used to use it at up to 45% in boilie basemixes back in the day.

Second that. I have two that are my go-to rods. Can't imagine a light spod rod being much fun. Have used a standard spod rod on odd occasions for carp and pike but it doesn't have much 'action' to it.
