Enough for the drop of the spod for the cast, through the rod and 5-6 windings on the spool - 8-10 yards should be ample

Used recently for a bivvy/extension and no issues, came pretty fast too!

What are you planning to power it with?

I've used a couple of cheapish ones, Outwell was one brand...used it in France

They tend to only get 17-18 or so degrees below ambient at best

It's a smallish venue, drive and survive...fresh running water, flushing WC and a gas shower are a saviour across a week away. Has a solar power charger that's ok for bits n bobs like phones etc

Some nice fish, one of those lakes that 1 person normally has a hit, and others nick the odd fish.

Has a certain charm, bit rough n ready.

7 swims, but 4 is a max you'd want on the lake.

Water level is very low this year, and can definitely make it a bit tougher...

Wow...that was definitely a hell of a reply! Lol

Yeah he/we use a proper air compressed 6kg gun for the main bulk of mixes when making a lot of bait... Just wasn't sure if you'd made any mods or anything to the plunger, as the softer popup mix does seem to get behind the factory one easily.

What do you do to stop paste getting behind the plunger? It's not quite like the Gardner style as doesn't seal fully to the tube!?

My friend has one of these and it's definitely the way forward for small amounts, test mixes and popups as keeps the sausage way more consistent than hand gunning!

Kudos Tackle make several versions or mods, longer snag ears, isotope slots, jack backs etc

Also do some nice separate flat snag ears that screw on the backs!

Have the Gardner Carp Duvet+ on mine as well.

I do like it overall, not too restrictive, no fleece! Not quite as warm as you expect it to be I think.

The weird shoulder baffles need to be removed as do find them a bit uncomfortable

Look at sealskinz shooting gloves, waterproof, warm enough to keep chill off and work with phone
