Was watching a vid whilst on Rouvy earlier - makes you wonder why they weight them when the needle's bouncing around, and they go "40lb 2" - very precise when its bouncing somewhere between 36 and 43lb. Going for the average 😂

But it sounds like Nash could be “taken out” without spending a penny tho 🤷‍♀️

I wonder how much of Korda’s profits are reduced by all the Embryo purchases. But tbh, who cares 😂 I’m sure Danny and the directors are doing ok.

Also not sure about extolling the virtues of American companies buying out others. Rarely do they ever actually add anything to a brand, and are only buying them to profit strip and sell off later.

Restructuring is normally delaying the inevitable though . All just smoke, mirrors and moving things around a P&L sheet. See Thames Water 😂

Why tho? They can not buy it and they might go out of business anyway. Why duplicate the ranges? If Korda wanted bivvies and bed chairs they could bring them out as fast as temu could deliver them.......

What’s the point of turnover without profit though? Although that’s why they’ve dropped bait

I don't get too excited by liners any more - doesn't mean fish are on your spot, just somewhere in-between the rod tip and the lead. And not necessarily a carp.

Doesn't it all depend on the flavour, it's base and it's concentration? And one companies 5000-1 can be different to anothers depending on if it's cut before they get it, and what it's cut with.

10ml of the original Chocolate Malt to an egg would be find, 10ml of Tutti probably not.

Bit late now sorry! - but Tonale GTX's. Use them when fishing until the mud means I need wellies (still in Skeetex!)

I’ve got some decent Miendl boots. I do a bit of walking up on Exmoor/Dartmoor but took them to Norway last year in temps down to -12 and then add in the windchill. Worn with a thin cotton sock first layer and a decent pair of Angora socks and was warm as toast, and I do suffer with cold feet.

My mums family is from Sieniawa which is just outside Zakopane. Not a lot of people know that!

They stopped manufacturing it as it wasn't cost effective iirc.

Quorn isn't a million miles off, not sure you can get it as a powder
