Duncan F (bathclaret) Posted September 19, 2008 Report Posted September 19, 2008 Recovering from a family day afloat last weekend I was peering into the gaping void inside my tackle box where there used to be rigs and weights. "Daddy it's got itself stuck again..." still rang in my ears.... Hastily I looked on ebay and found sets of 10 Fladen flapper/paternoster rigs - very cheap, including a rig wallet. A good spread of assorted sizes 4 - 2/0... perfect. They arrived quick enough - no probs with the seller - but what a heap of junk was in the packets! Knots looked like they were tied by my 3yr old and with less turns than she would have managed. Seemingly random selection of swivel sizes. Hooks that pulled off at the slightest tug. I ended up re-tying pretty much everything, which wasn't in my laziness plan. Anyway, the family are on feathers and single-hook zip sliders tomorrow! Duncan Quote
