Do you want plain bobbins or something that can be used as Swinger, Tension arm and Bobbins?

If so look at Solar Quiverlocs, the Tension arm and Swinger are standard, but they will also take the plain Bobbin as an easy swap. You just have to buy the Bobbins separately

Im going with the above after using solar for years. (meaning defiant mps ones)

Spot on Richk

Have got the banshees myself and they are very good.

On spotting a set of these on the bank the other week, if I were in the market for some new bobbins, I'd also go for the Defiant one's, they're spot on

At present I have the Matrix which I'm happy with though.

Had matrix , muddy and solar in the past but at the mo Im using 3 drilled out dice from Ebay , their compatable with all the above and get used on my matrix chains , muddy cords and solar sensoriser's.

The reason for having dice .................

They were the only thing in purple to match my Txi's

I do have two of the old skinny solar bobins (threaded tube) that do come out to play for margin work and slack lining but they clash terribly


I was quite impressed with the wychwood numbers , they look just like Matrix hot heads but come with loading weight and mini boddies...........

I've just changed my matrix bobbins for the muddy waters old school bobbins, and they are the dogs danglers. They look the business and are nice and light for slack line fishing or just add some drag weights if need to fish at range,plus the the isotopes are the brightest I've ever seen.

I have A solar box set got every thing int Cost eighty pound but well worth it

i have a set of gardner bugs. the smallest ones you can get but im finding them a little too light. so i would recommend them but go for the next size up!

[edgeog]

Got to be Solar quiver locks,you can set them to very light or wind the tension right up,plus add extra weights.Add to that the after sales service,i lost some bits off one of mine and they said send us a stamped addressed envelope and we'll send you some spare ones,which they did.

[ballbuster]

I have both defiant multi heads and gardner bugs,i much prefer the defiant indicators to the bugs as they are a bit on the light side,great for margin work though

[DOO]

matrix all day why did you sell em they have the add on weights etc.....
