[@WinginLife]

1400 euro is about right Jim, mine went a couple of months ago on my transporter and I did loads of research before I parted with £1200! Clutch, flywheel, slave cylinder + labour. Good on ya for not throwing the towel in 🤛👍

[@jim_lightfoot]

Cheers Winginlife 😀👍🏻 yep..the VW dealer wanted 2k so I was reasonably happy with €1400. Garage did a good job too & van feels great again 👌🏻

[@Blupa.]

Cheers Blupa 😀👍🏻🎣

[@user-kq9gq2xq2f]

Another great video. Most people would've went home after the gearbox issue. Keep enjoying it.

[@jim_lightfoot]

Many thanks Sean 😀👍🏻🎣

[@stephenhawkins9627]

Hi Jim I am a recent subscriber. I really enjoy your vids especially the adventures into the unknown as to me this is what really matters in angling. I am a barbel angler and only fish for other species in the closed season. If river carp was the same in England as it is in France I would switch to carp but it isn’t so I will stick to barbel fishing. If you are over here and fancy a session on the Trent get in touch as to me there is no comparison as a run on 2lb t.c rods. By the way you are a lucky guy having your wife on board with the fishing 👍

[@jim_lightfoot]

Many thanks Stephen 👍🏻🎣 that’s real kind of you..love a bit of Barbel fishing myself. Shaz is a star ⭐️

[@jasepowers9335]

Fair play fella. My old man's jaw fell open when he heard you mention the 20 mile cycle. Lol. What part of France is the lake situated? Looks like morvan national park somewhere.

[@jim_lightfoot]

Haha..cheers James 😁 the cycling does me good. That lake is in Limoges..stunning region of France 👌🏻🇫🇷

[@YakShoreOutdoors]

Sorry the clutch broke, but those were some beautiful fish!

[@user-kf3nd9qd9g]

[@jim_lightfoot]

Alison & Dave are lovely people..really enjoyed my fishing there 👌🏻 something really different

[@carper1993]

Hi Jim, just wondering what sort of rods (length and TC) and reels do you use when fishing the canals over there?

[@jim_lightfoot]

Hi carper1993…I’ve been using 9ft 3.5tc scope or dwarf rods and Penn 7000 reels. Perfect for the canals & rivers 👍🏻🎣

[@carpcampcook]

Brilliant, Northern lads just crack on and get on with it. 🚐 🤞

[@jim_lightfoot]

Cheers mate & 100% 👍🏻🎣
