I had the old xl hide
I bought the new camo xl pro and use the ground sheet from the old hide xl
It is a good fit

I purchased the listers 144k earlier this year. It’s a great bit of kit
I used it for a week in France and 6 overnighter in the uk and am still to charge it (29% left)
Would thoroughly recommend it

I have had a set of three power Aeros that I have used for the last 6 years
Very pleased with them with no issues
Last year I wanted a set of reels to go on my 3 1/4 rods and was going to get another set of Aeros but was told to look at the okuma obsidian
I was impressed with the reel and the price and bought a set
I’m not sure how okuma have done this but the reels are almost identical
I can and have swapped the spools from the Aeros to the obsidians and vice versa
I have used the obsidian more than the Aeros this year due to the lake I’m on and they are so far excellent
I have been a shimmy fan for over 40 years and I’m staggered at how okuma have done this

Purchased the boat 6 weeks ago for French trips. I have owned a waverunner atom and an Anatec dl boat with a toslon 640 sounder
Took the boat to a local lake 3 times to get used to it. There is an issue with the update but it will be sorted. My decision to buy the boat was great reviews and also the updates allowing the boat to constantly improve as time goes on
Took the boat to France and yes it currently has issues but it did everything I wanted from it.
I didn't want the boat to auto drop on a spot but rather go to the spot and let me control the final positioning and drop. The boat behaved perfectly and it definitely added fish and knowledge to to my trip
I would definitely recommend to anyone even with the current update issue

Tie a big loop 4”
then a small loop 1” on the end.
It will pull up tight on the big loop and leave the small loop
Then pull on the small loop to open it up

I have 12.6 free spirit hi s rods
I use the aqua 3 up 2 down holdall in 12 feet
It's the black series I think
About 4 inches extra on the length so the rods fit without being tight
Had the holdall 4 years and still in excellent condition
Would definitely recommend

Your biggest issue is the cheap bit
Since Covid I would say our trips are £300 more than pre Covid
Not sure we could do it now for less than £1200 per angler
Tunnel / ferry 250
Lake 350
Fuel 300 / 400. We are 250 miles from Dover
Tolls 25 / 90 depending where you are going
Bait 200 / 300
Food 150 / 250
Incidentals fishing gear / snacks / etc 100

As you can see it soon adds up
Many years ago I did dream lakes, not for me but I did say if I ever took a grandson it would be perfect
Coach from Dover and food included I think 850 now

It sold for £235.40 plus £10 postage !!!!

Afternoon all, has anyone seen the Korda compac weigh staff on e bay
Yes it's brand new and also been discontinued
But it has 34 watching, 39 bids and with 4 hours to go sits at £206.01 !!!!

Crazy price. Why did Korda discontinue this product, there is obviously a demand for it
