I still reckon Andrew Burgess brought it with him in a flask ;)

 

:lol::P I wondered how to managed to put a small inflatable realistic bream in your flask and pump up when nobody around on the lake! I keep looking at that photo of the so called big bream! I am sure it a fake alright! :P

 

lol :D

 

Mmmmmmm, I wonder how many eels you can fit inside a pole :unsure:

 

 

Dales - come and see me on the day and don't fish the match ;);) and - I will show you lot how to do it! :lol:

Cheers Budgie, difficult decision but life eventually got in the way too much and sadly it became unavoidable.   Such a good topic this one, we could do with a few more...!   My 'bobbin' idea as I

A free running monkey climber would work fine, some amazing and sometimes outrageous indicators were built and used (with some great success) thanks to this topic, all different but all trying to solv

Hmm the boy seems confident! He even offered me a wager!

 

Lets hope we dont have a sudden drop in temperature like last year as it killed the fishing.

 

Yes bruv, I seem confident alright but that is providing if you :rolleyes: have repaired my number 4 section of the pole - otherwise I will be fishing around 4/5 metres range! intead of the full 16 metres as last year!

 

But I could always nick your number 4 section intead if you haven't repaired it yet!

Sounds like a plan, who better to learn from then the reigning champion :D

 

I don't think I will be troubling any one at the business end of the table. I have only ever fished 2 matches and finished eighth out of sixteen in one and managed to blank in the other (very embarrassing, I was not even quick witted enough to say I knew I had not done well and so I returned them before the weigh in). I will be using that excuse this week end when all I have in my keep net is a few twigs and bloodworm.

 

I'm aiming high, if I don't finish last I will be ecstatic :D

Surely now's the time to grit your teeth, don your marigolds and go all-out for a horrendous, nightmarish bag of the ever-willing anguilla? :yucky:

I have trouble landing them on the Carp rod I have been using for them, I hate to think what they would be like on a match rod. Especially as I am borrowing my partners match rod for the occasion, I doubt if she will be very pleased if if comes back smelling of anguilla or worse I break it.

You have to use a float, but there's no rule against using a carp rod ;)

 

On bobbins, does anyone know where I can buy 1m lengths of 2mm stainless steel rod? Will places like Wickes have it? That's all I need now for the Mk II Swinghams.

Have you looked on their web site? Also I would have a good play with a length of it first to see if its stiff enough/to weight ratio I say that as I wasted a lot of time and cash trying to use carbon. Mind you if your counterbalancing weight wouldnt be a problem,That's why Paul's design gets away with the 6mm Ali tube.

And thats my "non indicative opinion"!

I've tried, Wickes' website is rubbish! On other sites like B&Q I can only find 3mm. I need to find it in a long enough length to see if it's too wobbly. I'm really hoping it's OK, it would be such an easy job...
