At the suggestion of various members and given the magazines will run a mile from criticising a piece of kit, here is your chance to tell us what you really think about a rod, reel, line, lure... keep it legal please!

Just stay away from the neoprene ones and you wont have any bother.

Lots of good makers out there.

ocean,Vass,bass boots.

Any of the chesties from these will last years.
UP THE DEISE!!!!!!!

If you can keep your head when all around you have lost theirs, then you probably haven't understood the seriousness of the situation.

There was a posting back in March 2011

[url] http://www.sea-angling-ireland.org/bull ... t=bassboot

where a few members had just ordered the bassboot waders.
  • Would love to hear from Labyrinthfish and Fishfinder as to how the waders performed one year on.
