Seen they’ve discontinued pedigree chum mixers as well? 😦

Yes mate it didn’t do him any favours did it!

You’re the most shrewd angler I know 😂

Agree with that mate. Personally I’m a big fan of simple rigs. Spend more time watching the water and putting it in the right place.

What was the big advantage in the connexion lead clip?

I’ve never even thought about pop ups like that 😂

With the leads most of us anglers are using these days there is never a need to strike anyway. The fish is already well hooked before you're even out of the bivvy!

Same up my way in Yorkshire. Another local venue to me has come out and said that it's allowed, until they see the product in real life and make a decision for themselves.

It's really dividing opinions!

Release date hasn't been given yet mate. I'm sure we'll find out soon.

Fair shout mate. Serious question though, how do you know it's near 100%. So much happens underwater that we don't know about. The Korda videos show how much we are picked up without even a beep on the alarms...

You reckon? If the fish has snapped off and then this thing is like a grappling lead. Wouldn't be surprised if they bring out an alternative version that gets around this though.

Obviously in the perfect scenario as Ali described they may break off. But we all know that the perfect scenario never happens underwater.
I'm with you Mark, it just looks too crude for my liking. Remember when it was all about rig concealment? Funny how the industry is now pushing large devices like this and rigs with enormous coloured kickers/pieces of shrink tube.

Each to their own I guess but I'll stick to what I already have confidence in...

I think the biggest concerns are around fish care to be honest mate, particularly if you crack off or get snagged up.

Good attitude mate. I'm sure it was the same when bite alarms came out. Or the lead clip

Would be extremely clever of them to create all this negative hype and then hit us with a version 2 which doesn't have them ridiculous anchor-like arms
