Custom reel kings do stainless steel bobbins I have the largest ones and I'm sure they're 60g

Went this March. Cracking lake. Facilities are perfectly adequate. Some lovely fish in there and you are pretty much left to yourselves, which I like. Can be long range fishing id you are on the front of the spit. But it's worth winding in during the day and go stalking around the far bank.

Sure you'll enjoy it

I've got the Cotswold pace compacts. Which are nice, but I needed a 4th and if you go on fishdeal you can buy the bionic 10ft retractable which are exactly the same in everyway apart from the logo for £58.

Had exactly the same dilemma. Had the emblems and made the switch to the obsidians. Haven't regretted it at all.

Hi all. I'm in need of some line biters but they seem to be out of stock everywhere. Anyone got a suggestion for an alternative, or something they've made up which serves a similar purpose

I have the Cotswold pace compacts, and I'm 99% sure they are exactly the same just with different logos. The carbon, fittings and handles are identical.

I've used my compacts for several years and found them well up to the task, having had fish over 60lb on them and fishing snaggy waters with no issues. They're much more manageable from a boat also
Are you sure?
