    Korum new products

    Not for me as you have to unscrew the cup off then unscrew the lid off to pour a drink and let all the cold air in. Nice art work though.

    New footwear for winter recommendations

    Just a heads up for you guys that have ordered any boots from Fencham. The two pairs I received look great, but tried a pair on last night fly fishing and they leaked on the left boot.

    Bait droppers

    Tuna cans are all right for close in work. Underhand cast. But you can cast them with a 2lb test rod using braid a fair way if needs must. It helps on the retrieve if the can is punctured full of holes to let the water pass through and helps push the contents out I suppose.

    Maggots

    Firstly before you put the maggots in the fridge after a day's fishing. Is you need to cool them and slow their body metabolism down which generates all the heat. I used to up end a bin lid and spread them on there to cool down. Then do any of the above.
