Mate, you're way too obvious. In all the past OMC threads you are very vocal \ negative.
You obviously have crossed the guy in the past and\or just can't stand him? Chill down a bit.
BTW, I don't like this product and don't think it should be allowed, but then nor do I think 'semi-fixed' Leadclips and\or Barbed Hooks should be allowed.
But this Twig has gone a bit too far IMO.
However, I think there is an agenda from some people in this thread (obviously yourself), and not very balanced, decent discussion.
What has been lost is the fact that it seems this product doesn't seem to accomplish what it's been designed to do, consistently anyway. The label (photo) on the tin proves that.

to be fair to braders I don't think he has been anymore vocal than me, I will openly admit and have done in this thread I'm not hamidis no1 fan based on his pushy throw it down your throat marketing and sales tactics.
any respect i did have went down the pan when they fished Grenville they had the swims taped off,used particle,used bait boats all banned on grenville and zamora caught his pb fish from an out of bounds area and he denied it all....there's nothing this bloke wouldn't do for a sale or to market his company.
EDIT: I will add that my dislike of the person doesn't cloud my judgement on products,happy to use something suitable for me,priced right amd fit for purpose like I've also said on here.....I use the omc putty and think it's great, it's this particular product the twig that is absolutely disgraceful its even been tested let alone released.

I have been also unusually vocal on this thread. I really feel that it is important and cannot express strongly enough just what a disgraceI think it is that this has been brought to market. On a personal level I have no thoughts either way regarding Ali or the company prior to this product.

Its certainly raised a few emotions

I'm betting Mr Fairbrass is thinking Ali leaving Korda has worked out really well.
For him.

Agree with that post 👍 , same from me.
Also do you think fishery owners will back track so as not to alienate potential customers , obviously those close and friendly with the omc brand stand out already , but there must be squeaky bums with some owners to see which way things go 🤔

like you say, the people with working relationships with omc is obvious,grenville,alot of filming and publicity for them, rh fisheries,ali's filmed on numerous occasions on his waters, parkield angling stock omc products and allow it on their pond...just three I can think of off the top of my head.

The ultimate slap in the face is one of the fisheries chuck a 70lb in , and a day later gets caught on it 😁😁😁 , off the top of my head the fish could be called "Big Twig Rig" 😂

The point at which this will become extremely fruity is when the inevitable happens.
A fish is found with this in its mouth and there's no hiding place then. It's not like an anonymous clip or swivel. It's "that". And then there is no hiding place.
The brand will not survive that.

The obvious hatred for Hamindi, suggests to me that hes been through a few peoples wives/girlfriends/boyfriends. It was evident before the product was revealed.
Theres an educated/adult discussion about a matter, then theres this forum/facebook/the playground

and even is 1965 (when they didn't have CAD software) they could make this contraption without snagging arms lol. and it clearly didn't take off then either...
And I'm sure all these pieces of evidence will show that their patents aren't worth the paper they were printed on.... although this does open it up to cheap copies which could actually be made safer or they could end up with more death traps on the market

Fair enough.
As you've been so vocal in this thread, can you just clarify your main reasons against the Twig, compared to a 'semi fixed' lead clip?
BTW, I'm all in, I hate the thing...
