Cheers for making me aware. Ive just bought an electric wheel set up from uk barrow conversions which comes with a lipo battery and Im now shi%%ing myself!! These arent cheap batteries as mentioned but i've bought an Ammo Can to house it in as my research says the insulated bags aren't worth a toffee. Not much dearer than the bags at £15 and a metal container at that to contain any fire. If youre thinking about it, remove the rubber seal and drill some ventilation holes - removing the seal negates the tight locking mechanism so I will.buy a thin ratchet strap for it so any explosion within doesn't blow the lid open!

Boathouse and main lake were sold as a complete sale to a private buyer. Temple (speci/carp lake) was continuing to run after this sale but as I understand it, another buyer came in wanting to turn it into a natural wildlife lake so this also sold. Not sure what happened to the 2 smaller lakes. Cut my teeth here in the 90s on the main lake and the 2 smaller ones were great for taking kids starting out.

I also struggled with the DF 2 finger method and the whipping knot until I found this fox video years back! Knotless knot for me does not sit straight enough out the shank but each to their own

I've made a couple.now, made this one a few years back and it is the best for me, probably due to the battery size..I didn't splash out on lithium batteries though so it is heavy however I can change this of course. He has done a few guides on his channel. Good luck

Been unming and arring for a couple of months now but have just taken the plunge on the outlaw pro - pro power pack after reading these comments. Good price and only 20mah less than the fox one and loads cheaper than Anker similar ones. cheers fellas
