I think recalling it would be a huge problem for OMC most of their products up to now don't require massive outlays on tooling, for that product they will have spent a truckload on tooling to produce it, and as others have pointed out Ali's ego won't allow it anyway, can see his ego rampant when he called the hundreds of lake owners and managers who have banned it naive, Ali needs to learn some hubris, I suspect the EA may look at the Thames bye law for this thing and make it country wide

I was worried I was being too much of a traditionalist I'm not liking this product, but this shows me nope there are thankfully alot of anglers who still prefer the carp to have a chance to make us look silly.

However the bloody thing doesn't actually work well most of the vids and the package itself show it not set off, but more importantly I think someone mentioned the baitworks pod so I listened and mark hits the nail on the head if you get cut off that contraption will equal a dead carp if the lake is snaggy or weedy

I'm against banning things for the sake of it but this product is the typical fish at all costs that Ali is trying to market his company for and I'm glad it's getting banned left right and centre kinda says it all that one of the few allowing it is RH fisheries and their pellet force feeding mantra means they don't mind if one of their big uns gets tethered will just force feed a load more and a local to me that is very much that fish at all cost type place are allowing it

I don't have one but I have briefly used one to net a fish for someone and they are great plus lovely deep mesh you get what you pay for at the end of the day I have always bought cheaper nets and have had a couple handles go so buy cheap and have to replace regularly or buy expensive and have it last? No brainer to me

Hi guys I'm fishing a lake that for some crackhead reason ban's tapered leaders but not a traditional shockleader. I'm using 12lb touchdown which while not a distance casting line casts well enough but cracked off the other day despite always checking all the knots etc before casting or for any nicks, can anyone recommend a decent shock leader mono as braid is banned aswell I would use a snag style leader but the diameters are massive cheers in advance

Let me guess your more the type who wanders round a fishery and sidles up to anglers saying ‘I get my bait for £6 a kg I can get you some, it's mostly soya flour and sawdust but still'
