Hello All,

Got a Cobra, but gonig to upgrade.

Thinking of the Big Korda - what are your thoughts?

have only used the standard size korda throwing stick,i`d stick to that size unless you use 20mm+ baits have used a big cobra in the past but it was to big and heavy.have a look at the solar throwing stick very easy on the arm and right up your street if your a tackle tart.

I use a fox range master, the bright green plastic one, for many years i used a king cobra but the fox goes a lot further. a heavy 18mil bait will fly a long way with the the fox. Make your baits (or order your baits) a bit harder, an oz of egg albumin added to the mix. helps prevents the boilie splitting mid filight, for real distance add some limestone flour (though ive never used it)
