I never really got on with the spombs so always stuck to a traditional spod, safe to say i am converted now.

Dot is the way forward mate, so much better than a spomb

If thats what you need to do mate, be sure you do it in the privacy of your bivvy though

This is easier than a dot to fill due to no mechanism to get jammed up and launches better, ie doesn't wobble.
simply better all round, shame as I've got 2 dots that are redundant now..

Thanks for the link, Defo looks more fiddly (two handed) to load than the dot or a normal spod. Thanks but i am out

Looks like they have got their pricing right, so it perhaps won't be too much of an incentive for a bigger company to buy them out. I bought some dot spods from a Czech website at €9 a pop before Nash moved in.

Carpology have just done a review on their YouTube channel mate, it actually looks ridiculously good. Close two sides to scoop and fill one handed or close three fill it with a hand or spoon and completely fill it with no gaps. Looks incredible.

I've only used mine once but it is very good. Flies and retrieves well. opens every time BUT it does have to hit the water with force to open the magnets are they are fairly strong. They may get weaker the more it's used but I cant use it to drop bait tight to snags, etc like I used to with with my spomb at a couple of rod lengths with minimal disturbance.

Must say this is the best spod /spomb/ whatever I've ever used.
Easy to load, cast well, opens every time, reels in well and robust too.
Not really used it to bait snags/marginal areas where your dunking or under arming.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
