Fishing gear,


Recommended Posts


Fishing gear from the polaks and other fish relocation extraordinaires top shop Lidle from monday the 9th :D Gonna treat myself to a pair of chest waders @ 12.70. Plenty of other stuff, nitelites, jigs, lures, rods, nets, line........ Fill yer boots :victory:

 

A word of warning concerning the Lidl waders

 

a mate of mine who's as tight as a Gnats chuff refused to spend a penny on waders and fished exclusivley from the bank

 

when the cheap lidl waders came on offer last year for 12 quid he was in there like a ferret down a warren

 

they lasted for 2 yep 2 trips, the seam went big style when he was mid stream and he took a proper soaking

 

good job it was in the summer and not during the freezing cold winter months

 

as for what was left of the waders Mike is talking of converting them into a pair of Thigh waders (did i mention he was tight as a gnats chuff)

 

if you want cheap reliable waders then the Orvis shop in clarkes village is selling off Orvis pro guide 2 waders and they are discounted from £269 to £49 they are stocking foot so you will also have to invest in a pair of weading boots but them seem far better value than anything from Lidls

 

have a look on the orvis website, www.orvis.com, and they should give you a link / contact number to their clarkes village outlet shop

 

all the best

I'm sure I'll find some use for It Nid, just not what I origionally had In mind.

 

Thanks F&F, You'r mate sounds like me :D Anyway, I'll probably not be up to my chest In them but It's always nice to have the height just incase. I'm not expecting them to last a lifetime either but hopefully they'll help me get a few fish. And If they do split whilst In the water, Nothing like a little shock on the river to wake you up :laugh:

Maty j hi

 

one quick word of advice concerning chesties from any manufacturer is always wear a wading belt regardless of the depth that you are fishing in

 

sorry if i am stating the obvious here but i have heard of some serious incidents over the years

 

if you trip and fall over then non belted waders will quickly fill with water and will make it a real struggle getting out of the river

 

possibly too much of a strugle in the case of fast flowing water

 

a wading belt will not make the waders totally waterproof from the top if you take a tumble but it will buy you time

 

all the best
