Re: Patented, named and unusual disgorgers
I had 10 of these in 2 different sizes and sold them at Redditch a few years ago. The 2 sizes were marked "coarse and sea".John Milford wrote: ↑Wed Feb 07, 2024 11:39 am Some nice old ones there AllRounder, especially the bone one.
That 'pistol' type is one of these, circa 1970s. Not made any more apparently. It says 'sea disgorger' but no doubt useful generally too.
PS: I've just come across another picture of a packaged 'Valley' that says 'coarse fishing disgorger' - perhaps there were different sizes available?
If you have no grease with you, and your rings are full of ice, do not cut out the ice with a pen-knife but get your man to put the rings one by one in his mouth, and so to thaw the ice.

Here is a modern example of a 'Float Disgorger' created by our very own Fredline! Well done John!
