by Elie Godsi If I were to ask you to come up with the ‘ultimate’ test for a new carpbait - like Shaun’s Liver B8 - what would it look like? Maybe you would fish that bait on one rod alongside your other baits and compare your captures? Maybe you could compare your results with other anglers using other brands of boilies on the lakes you fish? Maybe you could fish it on a lake that had never seen that particular bait and see what your catch rate was like. All well and good but what about the ultimate test? (more…)
It has been known for some time now that leadweights are detrimental to the environment, effecting our waters, fish and bird life. We don’t know for sure what the future consequences of this will be. Lead is a toxic metal that, in sufficient quantities, has adverse effects on the nervous and reproductive systems of animals. Found in most weights, this metal is poisoning wildlife. In addition to its impact on water, lost leads and the use of drop off rigs can create a burden on the environment. In Denmark, companies are now prohibited from inporting and marketing any product containing lead for commercial fishingequipment, this went in to effect in 2002. How long is it before it hits the UK?
