Thread: Fishing with Casters

I would like to start using casters on my lake but am not allowed to use plastic baits which rules out a "Terry Hearn" type caster rig. How would you guys recommend fishing them, bearing in mind that i will still need to cast them out. Could I just superglue some together on the back of a piece of rig foam / cork?
Many thanks.
Many thanks.

Does anybody know the actual legal entity of One More Cast as i can't find it at Companies House Under that name (or OMC Ltd) nor can I find an Ali Hamidi listed as a Director for anything resembling that name?
Many thanks.

Thread: Prodding Sticks

I currently have a Cygnet prodding stick that basically consists of various hollow section of metal tubing that snap clip together. Whilst it is extremely light and does the job, I find that it fills with water when in use which makes moving it through the water incredibly difficult when you may be drifting over an area in a boat and want to prod different spots underneath.
At the moment I have to pull the whole thing out and then submerge it in another spot. All the time I am doing this the water is then cascading out of the holes and I get drenched! Add in a strong croswind when in boat and trying to hold steady on a particular spot and I end up getting very angry and wet!
I k ow hat both Nash and Solar do solid bodied versions but before spending nearly £90 on a replacement I wondered if anybody on here had any better suggestions or had tried any for themselves> Yes, I know a long piece of wooden dowel would do the same thing but the ability to separate the different sections is key to storage and transportation.
Many thanks.

I know it has been asked in the past but can't find a more recent thread on this subject.
What do people recommend for a lightweight, portable and rechargeable DAB radio? I 'm not looking for Albert Hall style sound quality but reliable, hardy and with a decent battery length would be ideal.
Many thanks.

Thank you so much to all of you guys who recommended one of the head torches on somebody else's thread recently, they are brilliant. I don't think I will ever use my big and bulky Ridge Monkey one ever again now.

I don't know what size they are but i use just standard swivel leads on them and it works fine for me. I believe that they are just about to release a new slimmer, Heli safe system soon too.

I've got the Canon f1.8 50mm and it is excellent for those trophy shots.
