| Re: Rod Tip Light – Seeing your rod tip at night a word of warning make sure your tip light is secure properly before casting because the other week when i was on the beach the angler fishing next to me did have one not fixed right and i had to laugh when i saw it flying out to sea __________________ He who dares wins!!!!!! www.norfolkoi.co.uk (koi carp importers) Rollesby angling centre (Norfolk)15% discount for all forum members(no discount on bait) |

| Re: Rod Tip Light – Seeing your rod tip at night that tapes called "micropore", only just started using it(after being a fan of good old electrical tape)after using some on a cut for myself and  thought this could be good , works great as can completely cover ends of lights to stop tangles/snags as other post and light comes through fine, not the cheapest stuff in boots etc but if you know someone in a hospital/medical job than even better price  (but could never condone that ) __________________ www.exmouthsaa.co.uk 24 beers in a case and 24 hours in a day, coincidence or just damn good planning "No!!

| Re: Rod Tip Light – Seeing your rod tip at night well i use reflective tape on me rod, to light my rods up i hav a 15cm strip of aluminium with a hole drilled at one end, i screw this onto the tripods head, ( the metal is bent in middle at 45 degrees) and at the end of this i have a MFA clip on light, which is just 3 LEDs. So that lights up me rods without the hassle of lamps or headlamps on. |
