  1. My Altberg boots are very good i bought a pair of grade 1 Army Surplus for £40, they are doing season no 3. However i also have a pair of walking boots which i bought from Blacks Cardiff in 2004, they are still going strong! I do dub these boots yearly though. Cheers. Aled

  2. I've got a Dacia Duster 4x4 and it does the type of work which you are asking your vehicle to do, wildfowling, with dog and kit in the back. Also go fishing and travel along muddy tracks to get to the river. 

  3. First full year of secondary school, it was when i found out that i was really bad at exams! Anyway of far more interest, went on my first fishing holiday to Scotland, caught my 1st salmon from the River Tywi 12lb 3ozs on a great big bunch of worms. I remember my two cousins both miners being on strike, and the family moved to a smallholding and we started part time  farming.

    If he's on Facebook, join the "Just Chokes UK" group, plenty of chokes for sale on there or stick up a wanted add and someone will have one for sale.

    Brilliant thanks for that.

    salt flats and marshes  mate.... its not somthing you can do at the end of the season. even the air is damp and salty. need maintenance pretty much as soon as they get home. renaissance wax over everything before you take them out and still back chokes off  and wipe everything down when you get home

    Totally agree Sweet however....due to my car being off the road for most of Oct, Nov, & Dec, and January being a busy family month,😊 my trip to the marsh last Friday was my first and last of the 2023-24 season, sadly!! 😪   all being well i hope to make more trips next autumn😃

  6. End of season trip to the marsh today which ended in a blank, so time to give the guns a good clean and some tlc before storing for the summer.....the choke in my Lanber sporting upper barrel is stuck fast, and the choke in my Hatsan Escort is as well!!! (Blo*dy typical 2 of my guns!) So before i head to a gunsmith does anybody have any advice of what I can try first??

    Many Thanks. Aled 

  7. I'm a bit younger than you guys, but i can relate to what you are saying. Lost the passion for sea trout night fishing. There are so few of them around these days and i feel those still returning perhaps need to be left in peace to spawn. I hope you enjoy your sporting endeavours for many years to come. Cheers.
