Well is this going to be the day, I'm excited, nervous, tense, worried that the spot I've been baiting for a month will be taken when I get there, I can but try and pray it is free , it feels ready and I need to be there, bait is prepped, done some fresh rigs, charged everything, I will be getting there as soon as I can, praying those fish that visited the other day are keen for another feed, I feel a bit like braveheart ready for battle 😁 Now I've just got to get there, littlun has a stay and play at school then I'm hoping to sneak out this afternoon, this is what it is all about the buzz, the anticipation, I blooming love it 😍

Cheers buddy, hope you get out soon, Its weird I took my time setting up bivvy first , got everything ready, 4 casts to get 3 rods out, my catapulting couldn't have gone much better, I've seen signs, loads of fizzing to the left in the weed, if it doesn't happen tonight I may cry, I don't think I could've done that all much better tbh, even my reel handles are pretty straight 😁 I had best have a cuppa I think One just crashed out in the weed about 1 rod length behind the spot 👀👀

Its about obsession mainly this week 😁 Thanks guys, hopefully it pans out well 👍

Heavy duty grip seal bags for me, my work are kind enough to provide me with an endless supply 😉😅

I knew it was going to well I forgot my mug 😁😁😁😁😁

Thank god for that ... I’m in work doing long hours don’t even know what day it is, think Iv had one 48 hour trip since the virus hit. Good luck Elmo 🤞

Best of luck to you elmo 🤞👍

Ooh , I feel a cunning plan brewing . 😁

There we go quite pleased with this one other than the leaf I didn't spot 🙄

I've been granted permission for a quick overnight baiting night again tonight woop, gonna be a wet and windy one though so I might take the bivvy and my proper sleeping bag 😁 Why do I always feel like a kid at Christmas, everytime I can go fishing, long may that continue I say, love it 😁

As the resident greek here I can safely say I’ve never heard of them being used as a carp bait. No reason not to give them a try but there are plenty of better options for baits available

In spring I'll carry yellow, pink and white. After spawning I'll carry pink, white, and match-the-hatch. The most important thing is buoyancy imo. Lots of off-the-shelf pop ups are terrible for this.
