I have used korda 50lb xt snag leader for my booms on Ronnie's, hinges and combi multi rigs, a reel lasts for ages and its really good stuff. You can crimp it if you want to and never had any issues.

I saw Tom stokes use it and never looked back.

I have just won one as a prize will be selling straight away £500 ono

With the cold weather soon to be here looking at getting either the wrap or the capsule for the armo v4 the question is which is going to be warmest.

Has anyone had any experience with either

You are not wrong about the poles, they were very tight. But all in all was a decent bivvy easy too put up and take down, lots of room for a 1 man in my opinion. I'm very pleased with the purchase

Mine arrives this morning, doing 48hrs tomorrow so will let you know how I get on with it. Hopeful isnt too much bother so put up

Just bought one for £350, I haven't managed to see many reviews either which is annoying. In a bivvy review section it was said to be pretty **** hot.

Angling direct price matched with johnson ross and total fishing tackle and got next day delivery

Worth a read.

I listened to a jim shelley piece saying he spodded out something like 40kg of rock salt and fished boilies over the top to catch two tone.

So far upto 120 yards but in sure if needed you could fire a 4 oz lead further if you needed

I have the aircurves in 12ft 3.5lb and I have had no issues does everything from solid bags at range and fishing in the margins has all everything you could need

I haven't given up all hope of the boilie only approach, yeah I must admit I made the gap between hook and bait a bit more its about 15mm at the min, it has reduced the number of bream for sure
