Brilliant, fantastic to view. One question though, not a criticism, is the background noise a radio or adjacent anglers?

@@ianholliday5337 Thanks for the comment Ian. No, if it was adjacent anglers I wouldn’t be there. I do sometimes forget to turn off the radio (which can’t be heard outside my swim) especially if the footage is spontaneous like a run etc.

I’ve just watched the video again and there is quite a bit of background noise from an outdoor centre/sailing club from across the water- schools on holiday.

Hey Paul really nice watch enjoyed that you had a nice session the 33 definitely give you the run around heli safes was always my go to but I’ve switched to fixed or running lead clips definitely picking up more fish maybe the the liners you was getting is a fish trailing a rig n line through the swim as for spod rods the spomb spod rod LR is absolutely brilliant keep up the good work and enjoying your fishing 🎣 🙌🏻

Another well earned great session Paul , some super fit fish there too . C J was a real banger , stunning fish . Lovely venue with some super fish in it. The Korda catapult I use I've had years , long gone are the days of my trusty Black Widow firing out one at a time in the 80's although I loved using it and spending 30 minutes putting a couple of handfuls of bait out 😆 .

@@mathewwalklate9590 Thanks Mathew. Much the same with me on the catapult front. In this video I’m using a Korda version. I’ve had it so long I can’t say for certain which one but I suspect ‘heavy’. I have superglues a bit of stiff rig tube into the pouch tail for extra grip and just this morning I added a loop of paracord to aid grip with wet hands. Hope this helps.
