Me and my mate are looking at booking our first French fishing trip, we are looking for exclusive booking with decent facilities and a social layout (aka we can fish together). We've narrowed it down to 2 lakes, Jonchery 7 and La Plaine de Bois 1, we are more keen on La Plaine but cannot find any reviews etc. Was just wondering if anyone has any experience with these lakes or could maybe suggest more?

That's a shame, I really like the design of the P1 but don't like the stainless that much. I might have to get it, it's such a good pod 👌

I'm looking at getting a new pod system, I'm aware that the Solar P1 is one of, if not the best pod on the market. However I'm not to fussed on the stainless "carpy" look. Solar also make another pod called the A1, it's made out of alu instead of steel. Other than material and colour is there a difference in the pod, like the ratchet system that allows you to adjust the legs, etc? Thanks in advance and tight lines 🎣🤘

I was going to buy a 12ft 3.25lb, for my heavier long distance fishing situations. I don't know any tackle shops local that distribute them unfortunately.

That's disappointing, they really do look the part. I don't have a clue what rod to buy. I don't want to spend more than £250 on a rod preferably.

I'm in the market for new rods, I've looked at a few but none "tickle my fancy". I've recently seen the Wolf X series of rods, the X3k's in particular, and they really do look the part. Wolf are not that popular so I cannot go to a tackle shop and have a play around with them. Has anyone got them, what is their playing action like, etc? I've heard a few people say that they're stiff. Thanks in advance 👌🎣

Hiya guys, I'm going to buy a trio of the new Delks and I'm also going to get the d-lok system to stop the hassle of aligning the alarms. I was just wondering if you can use third party bite indicators alongside the d-lok systems? Thanks in advance

Don't have a clue, people prefer different things. I don't have a clue that's why I've made this thread

I've noticed that mate, most of the Ridgemonkey boys use them as well 👍
