    Scales

    I've just bought a set of these and checked them against my avons. They weigh exactly the same! I never thought I'd go digital but for £16 I thought they were worth a punt.

    Scales

    Same, I zero them to read 1lb and knock 1lb off the end result. I've tried it with a 4oz, 6oz etc "zero" and weighed the same item and got the same results after deducting the "zero"! I bought a set of flyweights which I checked against a set that I knew to be accurate, they were a few ounces...

    Particle baits.

    I had a very large haul of Barbel from the Trent some years ago fishing 10mm halibut boilies over a spodded bed of particles. It was a partiblend with red and yellow maize in it, I'm getting another sack this season to try the same tactics on the Swale.

    Korum waist trotting tray, Is this a good or dumb idea?

    Bait waiter on a long bankstick or bait apron. Reinventing the wheel IMO.

    Budget Alarms

    If you really want budget have a look at THESE if they turn out crap you can hardly moan about the price. I reckon a tin of luncheon meat will soon be more than that!

    Bank tackle hook sizes

    I like the BT hooks for big baits but I don't think you can beat the Drennan super spades or specialists for maggot/castor/smaller baits for targeting big fish. My PB barbel fell to a bunch of maggots on a drennan ss size 14 Horses for courses!
