Enjoyed the waffling & you know bananas are supposed to be bad luck in fishing don't you? You seem to be disproving that theory to be fair. 😆😆👍

haha thanks!

[@JohnWadrup]

Hi mark are you just taping your isotope to your rod tip Or is it fixed within the tip 🎣👍🏻

[@francolinobasco]

Hello there John this particular isotope is a clip on chemical light that clips to the rod tip if you search QualyQualy rod tip chemcial light you will find them online in various rod tip sizes.

[@JohnWadrup]

Thankyou🎣👍🏻

[@captainfrank01]

Australian fishing etiquette - never take bananas fishing, they bring bad luck (or they plain just don't appreciate it 😁) ....... clearly doesn't apply in the UK, lovely fish!

[@francolinobasco]

Well i had no idea Frank lmao :D

@@francolinobasco Yep, they just go ape if you turn up with them 😁

[@paulmeredith8349]

What bird seed do you use mark, do you boil it up like hemp ? I used to use trapping and conditioner many years ago.

I use haiths Red band. here is a link to prep. haiths.com/products/red-band
