Glad i bought all the J W Young & Arnold Kingpin centrepins i will ever need over 10 years ago. The appeal for me was British made products to last a lifetime, also the Arnolds were made down the road from me in Wimborne Dorset.

Can't beat a handful of sweetcorn in the winter and a small yellow pop up or wafter.

Anyone been using the Titan Pro bivvys, what are they like quality wise. I know the original ones shed their seam tape.

Got several Chris Brown nets, so easy to set up and take down. As well as super light and rigid.

Hi confused i thought the NB2 boilies were no longer available? Not on A Baits website either?

Think i have tried all the elastic ones, Peak, Tackle Box, Nash etc. Elastic goes on all of them after a couple of years.
So stick to NGT Tip And Butt Rod Protectors Deluxe Neoprene now, seem to last forever.

People are already using drones for shark fishing from the beach overseas. Bait boat lovers will just consider drones with cameras to drop their bait on the carps nose as the next step up in technology to catch fish at any cost.

Century C2D distance Spod Rod is the best I have used.

Already have bait boats with fish finders, swim mapping, GPS and now people using drones to view the water for fish.
Whatever happened to watercraft, learning a venue over time, observing where the fish will be in certain conditions and seasons. Then escaping the rat race and modern world for peace and quiet alongside nature?
Next we will have GPS guided bait boats being sent to coordinates beamed to them from a hovering drone equipped with sonar and radar. With AI the “angler” will be able to sit back with his mates and not even look at the lake.

Luckily they are banned everywhere i fish now and i think will remain so.

Only encountered them on a large open lake Rockford, could not believe it saw them passing my point swim late at night and dropping baits over 200 yards from their swim. So lines cutting straight over the top of my left hand and middle rods!

That was the last season i fished there that and the nearly arrived crowds occupying every swim drove me off.
