I do all types of fishing but do have carp kit too and I have used the ATTS alarms for years and they are bulletproof well worth a look for on ebay.

I was really tempted by the ATTS, remember a guy fishing next to be once had them and spoke highly. I went abit cheaper and got some Soniks, even came with a free bivvy light which was a nice touch. Haven't used yet but their pretty decent to be fair. Need some new bobbins now as well, if you have any recommendations? Stow are like 25 each, seems a rip off for abit of plastic on a chain ha.

I am a fisherman bro, no kettle, I do however keep a cheeky hipflask in the pocket of my barbour jacket. No carp fishing for ole blacko, trout and salmon only.

The ATTS are not cheap but I really don't look after my gear and after several years of abuse they just keep working even after some of them have been in a lake! I use the Gardener bug indicators in the small size the clip on them is perfect for all types of fishing, slack line or tight as the clip allows you to keep them attached to the line like a stow or like a standard indicator. And takle prices are outrageous hence I always go second hand. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if there was actually any decent carp fishing in Scotland you would def have a camo kettle @Blacko I am am envious of the game fishing in Scotland though I must say.

I've fly fished the Spey, mackerel fishing at Loch Long before heading for the congers at night on Lock Goyle, Spinning for salmon in Lockerbie to taking disabled folk to the nearest fish farm using powerbait LOL. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The disabled folk must have enjoyed themselves Have always wanted to get involved with something where I could introduce people to fishing and how much fun it is so good on you for doing it mate. I want to head up there sometime for the pike fishing though so any tips as to where to head as I have caught plenty of fish in the UK and as far afield as the carp in canary isles but have never fished in Scotland. @Blacko Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is enormous Pike in Loch Lomond, I have seen monsters pulled out of there. It's also a beautiful place to visit if you plan on bringing someone with you.

I have visited Scotland for gigs (Morrissey in Edinburgh was special!) just never fished there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm very envious, would really like too give game fishing a go, there's unfortunately nowhere to go in my neck of the woods. Really like the appeal though. That hip flask sounds a good plan, cant beat a little tipple when on the bank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bug indicators look good, just checked them out on YouTube, well priced as well so think I'll go for them, thanks for the recommendation!
