| I bought 3 Catapults with spare rubbers, 2 of them and their spare rubber havent lasted long at all but the Fox power guard mega multibait catapult has lasted me 3 years and i still have the spare rubbers. I now need to buy a long distance boilie pult and a short/medium range particle / pellet pult so any recommendations would be great:D . Also the 2 spods i bought are crap and even came with the bur from the drilling of the plastic. I just read the spodding article (Thanks Ger) and the spods in them pics look the berries so a recommondation here too would be great.... Ps: I am brutal with a trowing stick:pirat: _________________ Tony Mc |

- Best cat ive used in a while is the ESP range.got mine in manooth.
- Best spod has to be the fox,its small enough to be cast on a normal 2.75 rod,has a sleeve that fits inside for more liquid,or halfves the hole size for small particles.
- Both take a bit of gettin used to .But after a while there spot on.

| I've been using Drennan Boiliepults for nearly 10 years now. Must have 4/5 of them with different size pouches. Just pick up a fiver's worth of spare elastics at the start of the summer each year and they'll last through til the following year. I got good use out of the Trev Tomlin range also, very solid pults. The spods I use are the Fox and Korda models. I use the Gardner Boilie rocket if fishing at range and want to get a tight spread of boilies. Clip up when finished using it, tie on the rig and you're bang on the mark everytime. Cobra and Rod Hutchinson throwing sticks. Cobra feel by far the best and do put the bait a wee bit further due to the shape. _________________ "82% of Corkonians believe they are the chosen ones while 18% believe they are the ones who'll do the choosing".
