Hi ...
I have a chance to buy some Daiwa Amorphous Whisker rods 13ft 3.5tc .. There is not much about them online ( pressume they ve been discontinued for a while ) .. Can anyone shed some light on them ? RRP Value when they were in shops ? What action are they ? Etc etc ...TIA..

Hi all ...
I ve just recently had a considerable amount of tackle stolen from my car , included in the theft was my ultra strong large reliable jrc barrow ... I need to replace this urgently and I need something that's ultra strong , reliable, large and won t break the bank !! ...
I have seen these NGT Staka barrows online , they certainly look the part but I can only see one review online and there is no you tube videos on this particular model ... Does anyone on here own this barrow? And if so could you please give me the pros and cons ??!!
T.I.A

At one stage I had 23 nash / neville stainless alarms and I also have 5 of the green versions ....
There was a difference , to my knowledge (please correct me if i am wrong) the 1st batch that came out were more of a brushed steel finish with a one way switch without the nash logo , the 2nd phase alarms were a polished steel version with a one way switch and a nash logo on the speaker , the 3rd phase of alarms were a polished steel alarm with a 2 way switch and nash logo on the speaker all alarms had the little black rod protectors on the ears .... I sold 6 alarms of the brushed steel version as I preferred the look of the polished finish ...

Don t overlook Okumas !! 8k s for distance work , or t rex 7000 for general carping ... I have a massive reel collection and i really rate okumas against all of the other brands ..

I use okuma 8k on my bait rods , spod rod & marker rod and they are incredible, I have a reel collection now of roughly 250 reels and I cannot get enough of the 8k !! 😉

In my collection of reels I have okuma trio rex tx 60 , okuma 8k , okuma cassien , okuma epix pro (originals) and okuma coronado cdx 65 and have to say they have not missed a beat ... outstanding value for money .... I also own many daiwas inc different tournament models & and many shimanos ..
The only down side with okuma is getting parts , when I got my coronados delivered one of the ambidextrous screw in handle caps was missing and I contacted everyone associated with okuma on the Web worldwide to get a replacement ( countries were America , Taiwan , you name it i contacted them) and they could not help me find this part , in the end the tackle dealer ( who was not helpful at all ) who I purchased the reels from sent me the cap from a trio rex as I told him I was going to send the reels back for a refund and lucky enough although a slightly different colour the cap was the same size and fitted....
So my point being ....Okumas are fantastic reels for the money but to get spare parts is very difficult....

For your information I do not have my receivers on the other models on their max settings or excessively loud , I have them loud enough to wake me ( not the lake ) if I nod off ( that's one of the reasons they were designed for isn't it ?? ) ... but the receiver i have is pretty quiet on its max setting !! And going by all accounts you guys reckon they are loud enough , so that tells me I may have a duff one or speaker damage etc ?? And I do not need my ears syringed ffs !!! 😆

I have gone through the 5 levels of volume on the receiver and still cannot get the receiver no where near as loud as my
Txi s , lxrs or rx s .... Normally fish under a open fronted shelter / umbrella system and was just a little worried that in windy conditions I may sleep through the receiver noise , maybe I have a dodgy receiver ...
Thanks for the info fellas !!

Just bought a mint set of nash rs1 sirens, had a play around with the settings after watching YouTube but I am finding the receiver is not very loud , I set the alarm heads to their loudest ( does the receiver replicate the alarms in volume ? )and I have put some new batteries in the alarms and receiver but I am finding that compared to other receivers on different model alarms it is not that loud .... Does anyone else have a set of RS1 sirens and do you find yourself in the same situation as me ? TIA

Looking at the reels the stroke of the spool looks longer than the average pit .... is it 45 mm long or the standard 35mm ???
