I hope you are all a lot better than I have been for the past two weeks. I have been so sick with some hideous virus. I have not done a test, but I am quite certain I’ve had Covid. I have just locked myself away from everyone. I was tripping out for a week or so. Many people have tried to get hold of us over the past two weeks, I’ve missed so many emails and text messages. I apologise, no one was being ignored, I was just dying and not with it most of the time..
I’ve lost 12kg in 16 days. Finally seem to be improving a bit now.
Work is completely up to date with all orders up until yesterday afternoon.Tonnes of orders went out this morning alone.
I am likely not going to be about again for a while. I had worked myself into the ground a bit over a two month period, which is why I think whatever I’ve had, hit me so badly. Have a load of photos to post, which I will do now.

I will not be about online for a little while now.
We are crazy busy. We are pretty much up to date with all orders. That will continue. But, I personally have not had a day off for the last five weeks now. 39 days straight, Sat, Sun, bank holiday, all the same.
If you need to get hold of us regarding an outstanding order. Always text or WhatsApp message the work mobile. Number is on contact page of our website. Don't call, it's always on silent and never gets answered.

Depends on what rig you are using. Any rig with loads of extra metal work, or tungsten kickers and the like, with a chod or a SHR you will need not much putty with a 16mm. If using the same 16mm with a multi rig, clearly you will need to use a bit of putty. They have to cover every situation.
SHR 16mm, multi rig or normal pop up rigs 13mm.
They all work exceptionally well in cold water. If anything, they become even more effective than in the summer I'd say, in comparison to anything else. S2 has over a decade of winters doing incredible things in cold water. If I had to pick one for cold water, personally it would be the S2, S3 or S4. Others tell me the GPB1 are just as good in cold water.
The GPB2 contain so much soluble fishmeal, I gave anyone who asked the advice last two winters to avoid them in extreme cold water (Jan/Feb). I was clearly wrong. Anglers have told me they have clumped fish all winter on them.
But still if pressed, winter for me, personally it would always be S2. But that's only because I have caught so many fish on them in cold water.

Are the crushed corks mega buoyant? Do you need much putty to hold it down?

That Woolpack carp is incredible. Not quite as impressive but I had a lovely black low-20 at the weekend on S2 CC during a social with friends. Really enjoying using the hookbaits and love seeing the calibre of fish they're nicking out

Such a good idea sticking them in the avid case, does anyone know which one this is? Not long made my first order, keep missing the postman! Had to redirect to neighbour, hopefully they don't fish😂😂
