lloydy thats a quote from taffy sh#t

Sensas elastic is for girls, too soft and stretchy !!!!!!

COME ON YOU BREAM

taff i've spoke to a lad who has just come back and he said the bream are showing all the way up and are spawning as we speak he also said the dutch have done loads of maintenance work on the pegs
do you know how many are going now .i hear Don has surcome and is now going

Agree, it's w@nk.

now now it's a personal thing in the lower diameters its bril but i'm not so sure the bigger one's as i'm not a carp head
i play around in the tackle shop with them all
garbolino some seam good yet others feel harsh
preston black no8 i like that
middy orange you can't go far wrong with BUT over the last few years in holland it's gone towards a softer lagy and that maver yellow seams to be what they use
i always make sure i checkout what others are using i remember Sam asking me what i was doing just looking i said he said if thats the case why are you holding my top 5 in the air

Leave that girly soft elastic at home mate .
tighten it up and break down at your No 4. I found it far better once I changed to that a few years ago. Maver 10 is my own preference, but I know someone used double no 8 preston last year and it was brilliant. If I was going, i would be trying it this year.

i used it doubled up last year

i'm not sure about this doubled up lagy some work really well BUT i tried preston blue i think its a 4 or 5 .one thing i found straight away the colour runs off it and two it soon weathered i might of had a bad lot but it put me off
the black worked really well for me

it's a 5, i've got a couple of kits with it in but I've never used it yet ::) ::) ::) ::), ( the silvers we catch at Makins and Blythe pull double 6 out and if they don't I want them to drop off , ;)lol )

It's still w@ank

It's still w@ank

just because you've got that knicker elastic in yours bill

When is this going Dutch trip Joff?
Do they still drink pop over there?

I'm off to Ireland on May 15th

yes still pop but there is a Irish bar out there and the guinness is not bad

taff did you use 808 hooks over there as mine seam blunt

4 weeks today 29TH april to the 8th of may the tank commander has given me a few extra days

yes  still pop but there is a Irish bar out there and the guinness is not bad 

taff did you use 808 hooks over there as mine seam blunt 

808's, you do fish some girly gear matey

No, B560's, brilliant hook, used them for 3 years now( not the same hook!!!!!!) and had no problems at all

funny i've just picked some of those up along with b520s
the preston new competition pr 355 looks good as well ,we had them all out looking at which were the strongest  ;)the B 560s is a big hook in a 14s  and the new preston 355 is a big 16s and very strong

you've lost me with all those numbers owd lad, keep it simple and just take some B560's 14's and a few 16's for the crap areas ( so you won't need them )

sorted me old china
the pegs this year are
201 to 231 300 to 330
363 to 393 and the bottom section
two days on each section 77 are the most we can have
