Hi there, a bit late to the party but @bluelabel where did you buy your Nash Scope Ops brolly bag ie the one having a designated space for the rod holdall? I've been looking for one for ages having the same brolly and rod bag. Cheers! -
I've entered quite a few Comps lately, also done reviews of products I've got. Will try this out on Father's Day weekend session.

I've seen all sorts about how much rock salt to put in some people think you can't overdo it some people have done tank tests and don't think it has any attractive qualities at all, personally i would just put a bit in, I am going to add lots of garlic powder to my particles to give them my signature twang, it will also stop the carp being eaten by vampires 🤣

Yes it's very tempting to go before the closures but I can't see them feeding whilst in limbo but you never know. The bigger fish prob won't even think about it until the little uns have got it done. Could go this weekend potentially but just not sure if worth it. Temps have been very low in the Midlands this week.

Hello, I have the Nash Titan hide XL which is fine but I’m looking for a brolly as well just for quick sessions for when you want to get out of the sun or wind but I want to fit 2 chairs in as the mrs often comes with me. So I’m just after opinions and options to look at from people who use them and their experiences. Something light to carry and roomy. Thanks for looking

I wonder how many places people think they are spawning when they are not. These North Quarter winds and temperatures not reaching 18⁰C are holding the fish back in my syndicate, and it is 1st June. They are full, and looking spawny, but nowhere near the known spawning areas, although a few males are hanging around the edges. I don't think that they will feed properly either until spawned.

Same as can't really do overnight for a few weeks so may as well save a few bob instead of chasing spawning fish, deffo a visit to bluebells before the end of June. Just waiting on her op results there's me getting ready to complain about the wait for results, they have to grow the sample to see what's what before radiotherapy surgeon was positive didn't need to remove as many lymph nodes as first thought.

Sorry to hear that - just the worst thing, but you gave him a great life and that's all you can do - they don't live long enough 😭

Time to commit to a longterm base mix now I have a idea how things work. I will continue to make my own krill haiths mix but for a solid fishmeal I'm getting a base mix from scientific bait the Frankie mix I like what I'm seeing it's a lt fishmeal with seaweed and yeasts herbs and spices oils and frankfurter notes. My krill mix is about there just need to refine and replace a few things cut back on the tiger nut flour and add some whey ingredients the buttercell nut glm liquid is staying I will be getting that in large amounts. Try and get out for next weekish
