I use both but prefer a fixed spool as where I fish its very rocky and snaggy ground and the fixed spool is quicker at getting the tackle and fish back in without losing it all

Multipliers tend to be slower

Ah, right.
I only ever used a multiplier once (it was loaned to me for the day, by the company manager I was working for).
I had previously used a fixed-spool and when he asked me if I knew how to use a multiplier, I just nodded my head (well, what could go wrong, eh?).
First cast.... the mother of all birds nests!
Never used one since.

Killed it for me when he mentioned trainers, trainers are people like Lew Clayton, they’re daps, pure & simple.

Good to hear the name Lew Clayton get a mention. A hark back to the days when sponges were magic :xmasthumbup:

Yes Matt the Star Wars Lego collection has been updated, some good deals on very which I was too weak to refuse….Yavin 4 rebel base down to £80 from £140….got the ghost too, not sure whether to build it or put it in the attic and wait for it to triple in price like so many other sets….

Apart from the Lego side hobby it was boring stuff like boss aftershave and vans socks….I got way too many pairs of vans and about 25 adidas (5 brand new still in boxes for 5 yrs) so there is no way the wife will buy me anymore:xmashehe:

Got the obligatory book but one I’m looking forward too, “riding so high” the Beatles and drugs…

We dont spend much on each other these days, it all goes to the kids….and on food!

I think that they do exist Mo, Although Newsagents are almost a thing of the past. I went and bought a 'Smut' mag a few months back, imagine my embarrassment having to communicate to the girl on the till that i didn't have an internet connection..... :xmashehe:

A mate knowing I was going to the shops asked me if I’d get him a Daily Mail and a Sun…… I bought an illustrated copy of anal sex for beginners to put them inside of to save the embarrassment when out on the street.
