  1. Manual … and I loved it!! Now sold.
  2. Gents, solid workhorse, never towed anything. Genuine reason for sale 115k miles 7 seater (rear 2 currently removed to allow for dogs, rods, decoys etc) Dashboard has bubbled due to sun at some stage, but it didn’t put me off buying it. More details on request for folks really interested - please PM. £6k South Lincs.
  3. Could you reply to my previous PM on the Versamax parts please?
  4. Thanks Gents … @islandgunWe’re fully authorised on the river estuary we’re booked on 👍 Looks like a fun week of varied tactics ahead!!
  5. So … it looks like my upcoming trip to Scotland for Salmon will be not be helped by very low river levels and a lack of rain in the forecast. My attention is being drawn to the river mouth around dawn as I know there are Sea Trout and the odd grilse to be had there (also a Bass or two). Has anyone down this type of fishing (on the fly) and any tips?
  6. I’ve too much stuff! Hence these can go … Simms Goretex Freestone Wading Jacket size Large (generous) in brown £80 posted Vision Vipu Competition Rod 9ft 6 3wt £80 posted Vision Onki Rod 10ft 4 wt £170 posted All items are in very good condition, being lightly used.

  7. Nice work Dave … they’re certainly looking up now in Norfolk..
  8. Only the one trout … but good enough !! And a bonus Chub!
  9. My local river hasn’t come to life yet. Had a few bows off the lake whilst practicing my double hand casting. Had a day chasing silver on the Wye (Monmouth), but no luck. Hope to get my first wild ones of the season this weekend. Work will take me to Utah next month, and I’ve extended the trip to get a couple of days in there 👍 Had a day ticket there a few seasons back … very enjoyable 👍
  10. Sounds like a good plan to me … go for it!
  11. Such a shame he didn’t get in before the mad woman Truss.
  12. I’ve a 30” Invictus and managed to pick up a 32” set of barrels quite cheaply. Wouldn’t want to be without either set now.
  13. Nice to see how this has developed … still have a tub or two of Longshot so might give it a try!!
  14. I try and mark the birds I’ve shot so I can take them. Feather through the nots or a plucked head. Not always possible, but it helps.
  15. Caesar Guerini and Winchester both do one …
  16. Best tip I had was to gut it immediately after shooting … removes all risk of a ‘bad experience’.
  17. If we follow this line then … That Army & Navy isn’t an Army & Navy That Powell isn’t a Powell etc, etc Ever since guns have been sold, they’ve had different names out on them by those selling them, and we don’t get hormonal about those. We know what it is, and what it isn’t, so can we move on?
  18. And a proper soot making combination they make!!
  19. Treated myself to a new ‘pellet grill’ after Xmas, and decided to start with some smoked goose breast. Marinated overnight in apple juice, bay, garlic etc the cooked the next day low temp for around 5 hours… Result was moist, tender and full of flavour..
  20. Just need a few 6’s 8’s and 10’s for a trip later in the year. I’ve got the flies, just need a few hooks. PM me if you’ve some you’re willing to part with.
  21. My old man has done a couple .. in his shed with the hot oil technique. Several years later they’re still in the same shape 👍
  22. Wonder Wheels Alloy wheel cleaner … dissolves any carp on contact 👍
