  1. I love coarse / carp fishing setting up before first light and watch it come light while your sat back watching a float or tip. A really nice relaxing experience. @Lone-wolf I got back into fishing a few years back after big break.

  2. I have cleaned up my old Sundridge bite alarms as they were covered in horrid sticky stuff, i thought batteries had leaked but it seems it might of been some bait juice, fingers crossed they still work, the remote sounder box powered on

  5. A very good friend that i used to fish with is still fishing on the carp scene and doing well, chatting to him and seeing his catch pics has made me decide to take up carp fishing again, so from next year i will come out of fishing retirement

  11. Well, this is a surprise! This is the sort of conversion I wanted to do years ago (there was a popular, Japanese youtube video, where someone had done it and it looked great). However, I lost interest and sold my Hornet. Just got repeatedly frustrated with the Hornet's lack of ability. This will utterly transform how it drives.

  12. yay i finally caught a fish yesterday a nice 2 pound odd rainbow trout (on power bait with a float) which i promptly gutted and cooked with some red peppers and onions with a load of butter wrapped in tin foil in the air fryer 🙂 i also caught a little greedy perch that tried to eat a lure half its size lol some pics of yesterday half of the trout i caught on my plate daddy stormbringer, he caught a trout as well 🙂 was a lovely day out and one of my new rods and priest got christened with the trout and my little 7 foot rod i had since i was 5 and dad had when he was 6 caught the perch, the perch got let go 🙂

  13. My Nikko Frame Buggy has that. It's usually an indicator of non-proportional steering. Side note.. Imagine popping that shell on an infraction lol

  17. I would go Taylor , ESP AND OBR are just reworked Zenoah to a certain extent , where Taylor engines are designed from scratch and have a very good reputation . Taylor are at least as well established as the other brands , and have plenty of race experience behind them . I am finding that even with my 32cc Chinese reed case engine , it is way too much power for 2 wheel drive and is very interesting to drive. The SCZ in my modified 30 DNB is much more stable and easy to drive.

  18. Genuinely thing this is a good idea. I mean...it's a Tamiya with proper suspension and ball bearings. Less good will be the fact that it will cost a fortune for what it is, but it does at least show some concept of how to keep a model looking like it used to be, but working like it should. Oil damped shocks. Damn. Revolutionary stuff. Incidentally, I planned on picking up a Lunchbox to do something similar with. Graft on proper suspension. End up with a usable vehicle that looked stock from a distance, but wasn;t.
