those are some good deals Elzie. Have you had a chance to go to the shop since moving to OK?

Sure have its not far from my house. Been there several times.
Lots of neat stuff there.
I bought one of these tripods and it works great. Very adjustable and stable even on rough ground. Sets up in seconds. You can screw alarms or rod holders directly on it.
I mostly use flavored maize and pv bags now.
I will probably purchase some boilies next.
I hope to get some alarms soon. Maybe Santa will bring me some for Christmas.

your a "lucky" man elzie to live so close to an actual carp store .congrats!

Not even a carp store could get me to live in Oklahoma
