Bonjour de FRANCE DEN, bien content d'avoir de vos nouvelles. Hello France Den, very happy to hear from you.

I’m curious to know what happened to your little DIY boat? Is she still sailing along? Was hoping you might post a follow up video. 🤞

Glad you're okay mate. 👍🏼

Hi again Den (and all hand arthritis sufferers), I had chronic arthritis in my left thumb and had a trapeziectomy operation where the triangular trapezium bone is removed. Never looked back. Totally pain free and full movement restored. Barry

Nice to see you back and good to know you are o.k. I went fishing yesterday and landed 5 nice double figure carp, 2 broke me on snags and 2 got off. I was using my own blend of bread crumb and carp pellets laced with turmeric, which I learnt from you. Another angler turned up and he had forgot his bait, so I gave him some of my mix. When I explained what it was made up of he was surprised, smelled it and said he could eat that himself. I told him about you and that is where I got the tip to use turmeric from. I was about to go home so don't know if he had the same success as me. Thanks for your tips and look forward to more videos to come. Barry from Essex

Good to see you back mate speedy recovery

Have you a mould for infill the method plz ?

All is well ,when everithing is finishing well

Why didnt you get it seen to by Doctor. Get well soon. Cheers

Good to see you again Den I hope you will recover soon so you can go fishing again. Must be quite frustrating not to do the thing you love to do. Anyway as always thanks for the great content you make you are truly missed ( also here in the netherlands 🇳🇱) cheers Martijn

Great video Den, thanks. Is there an alternative wood to the balsa? It`s difficult to get near me and quite expensive on line. Any help will be much appreciated. Regards, Stuart.

Know the feeling well Den, I've arthritis in both thumbs and apart from fishing, I'm a paracorder as well and a day of paracording has my thumb joints screaming. Wishing you a speedy recovery

Been missing your content mate . It's like winter in the UK now too Den .

Take care Den

That is great news to hear you are alright! Wish you speedy recovery to finger. Winter... suppose it is our turn in the Southern Hemisphere... will have to watch our fellow fishermen/women in Northern Hemisphere catch some...

Hi Den Great news that you are ok and hopefully we can see you fishing again soon. Tight lines Keith

Hope you get well soon Den, looking forward to more videos, they really are super helpful. All the best.

Glad to hear you are OK Den. Have missed you these last couple of months. Looking foward to seeing how the feeders work out.

Perhaps you should 3D print a new finger 🤪

Sorry to hear about the mishap. It still looks pretty swollen, have you been to have it X-rayed?

Get well soon Den , look forward too your next video 🎣

Wishing you a speedy recovery Den🎣🎣

Ouch. The Fish will at least be pleased..hahaha...Hope your finger holds up on the day you go..and glad all is ok otherwise Den. You've been missed!..ps: Chicken Pellets in Turmeric have been great for me..thank you. Going to try potato pellets on Thursday

Hello Den, nice to see you back. I'm left handed but hold fishing rod in my right hand and reel in with left hand and also hold landing net in left hand which feels natural to me that way. Basically I fish like right handed fisherman. Noticed you do the opposite and wondered if you were left handed. Now i know

Nice to know you're on the mend Den!

We will be here waiting on you buddy, rest up that thumb 👍 and take care

Den, it is no shame to see a doctor! Might need some surgery to fix it permanently… Good luck!

Good luck - I hope your recovery is speedy and successful

Ouch! I have arthritis as well and know at times it does not play fair when fishing. Glad you are okay I guessed you were up to something as you did reply to my post on your paste vid so still about. Cannot wait for the STL so I can print them out and try. I have had great success with the method with the line clip. Look forward to more of your vids soon.

Gutted for you Den not getting to fish the festival I know how much you were looking forward to it as I was. Very unfortunate to injure your thumb mate got to rest it. Looking forward to some vids off you in the future 👍

It's really good to see that you're back Den. I was missing your videos. I hope that your finger is okay. Take care Pete

Glad to see you back Den

That reminds me of the story about the bloke who cut off his finger at work, so they sent the foreman round to tell his wife, was it his whole finger she said and the foreman said "no, you'll be ok, it was the one next to it"

As the saying goes Den…”Pull your finger out”, get some fishing in and video’s made! Joking aside, sorry to hear about your recent injury and hopefully you’re now on the mend.

Ouch Den! I just thought you were off having a great time targeting Tench and Roach in other parts of the country. Sorry to hear you've been poorly. Hope the pain sorts itself out soon. 😱☝🩹

Glad to see you are OK Den and back doing what you love. Look forward to some new video's, hope you and the bride have a nice break.....

Did wonder what was up

Glad your ok den,good to see you back

Thank God to see you again. I was worried something really bad had happened.

Thanks for the update Den. Hope your finger is back to normal soon and you can fishing trip goes well.

"Something is catching in there ..." 😂. Den's finger might have been broken. Great window feeders, hardly wait to see the process of making them.

Good to have news, albeit disappointing for you and those who follow your excellent channel. Hope you are fully recovered in the very near future.

Well done

Hey Den, got the new underwater camera? A new Waterwolf is about to get on the market (or already is on the market). WaterWolf 2K WiFi. Seems better than the previous two versions.

Den, is everything alright on your side? We haven't seen you loading a video for the last two months?

Pleased to meet you Den my name is Arthur a friend of Terry from Victoria he has given me your phone number so I will contact you. I am just going to watch your Videos,

I used to use supermarket own brand ovaltine for sticky mag and sticky pellet and then the bait manufacturers started to sell one for more money, I never bought it though. I bought some of the Goo when it first came out but I cant say it got me more bites, I think it catches more anglers than fish to be honest.

Absolutely brilliant! Thank you for sharing.

Thanks for sharing this fun project, Den. I also am building a take-apart to fit in the SUV, but I like your design much better! I way over-engineered mine (as usual), and had mine with the tub being a short one-piece, as were the pontoons going to be. That has changed! Fortunately, I am still in the drawing stages, and the ideas you have provided have not only simplified everything, but your quick construction demonstration has cut my build time to probably 1/3 to 1/2 of what it would have been, And, being 8 feet long instead of 4-1/2 is REALLY the cat's meow! I will make the front piece longer than yours, and a bit narrower than the main tub so they nest together, because the inside of my SUV is shorter than yours. I will make the bulkheads where they connect shorter as well , to allow moving from the front to the back easier. This old man isn't so limber anymore, and the front section will be long enough to make it worth it, especially when my wife is onboard. I think I may use 4 pontoons instead of 2. Your videos came just at the right time: God has a way of doing that! Now I'm thinking to make the pontoons collapsible...

Thanks Den Brilliant, has helped me no end Tied a few for my bream fishing as I’ve tried others and failed Cheers Tim
