The rate some of these “Sponsored anglers” jump from one company to another you would be changing gear every five minutes. It puts me off to be honest the over promoting of products. I stick to 2/3 manufactures for terminal tackle. I don’t buy hooks as I found i pattern I love and bought a shed load before they were discontinued and the next “Revamped” one came out. I don’t generally buy anything big and if I do I go 2nd hand. Loads of gear out there for decent prices where people are giving up.
The world really is a desperate place when it comes to the “Brainwashing” of what you need……

Hi,
I have a Nash barrow and wheel my barrow straight into the van as you want to do.
I just got a spare set of batteries and swap them over every now and then and put the spare set on charge.
But I’d be interested in any ideas or success you have with your idea.
Cheers
Mike

I spent £225 on a Rab coat . I use it for walking the dog as well to try and justify it to myself. ( I normally budget and don't even buy new tackle)
The coat has been top draw , comfy , waterproof , windproof and drys really quick.

He used to be on here I think his name was crowbar. I started a thread on one of his sgite videos. He came on and tried to defend himself. Basically he's done a video about cutting down on weight and even measuring out his milk so he could travel light. There was this video of him with a solar worldwide pod ( He was sponsored by some at the time) totally contradicted himself and couldn't take any criticism of his video.
His latest video slagging off anglers !! The bloke comes across as a tool.

That's what total tackle told me when I tried to order a 4th. Ended up getting it from Johnson Ross.
Tip is fine , very similar in action to my friends Torrix.
I like the stealth build as it's understated.

I have century adv1 in 3.25 tc and love them. However I believe they have been discontinued.
