Fished here about 4-5 weeks ago and if you like to swim in mud, this is the place for you, not a single swim had any kind of boards, woodchip, shail or drainage, let alone getting to the swims from the car park was horrendous. 4 inch+ deep mud everywhere.
None of the swims are boarded and are just holes in the reeds, which are overgrown and in a lot of the swims you wouldn't be able to safely land a fish.
The shower/toilet blocks are something else, dirty, stinking and the toilets are seriously blocked up and unusable, nearly puked at the state of them and I have a strong stomach.
The shower looked like someone had been mud wrestling in it and it'd take some serious cleaning for it to be usable.
Will I be going back – not even if you paid me to, no.

The "Y" bit the line sits on is not the sensor.
The sensor is at the base of the "Y", and the "Y" is attached to the sensor.
So virtually impossible for it to determine which way the line is moving.

I've never had an issue sinking it, however I never fish slack lines so I don't know how it performs in that respect.

I've been using the 0.30mm 18lb version for best part of 2 years in weedy waters and not once have I been cut off or felt any abrasion marks on the line.
The only thing I found is, that you can't tie a grinner knot as it will slip due to the silicon coating, but the palomar knot holds no problem.
In my opinion, its the best line I've used in over 25 years of carp fishing.
