I'm in the same boat mate. I've decided to chuck all my line/hook length materials and keep everything else providing they're in good order. For the price, I don't really see the point in keeping it and risking break-offs.

Howdy fella , Grays actually . I used to fish at Crow Green quite a bit but the big lake used to be very hard , the others not so much . I expect I’ll end up there again in the spring as the small lakes are always good for a bite especially if my boy seemingly wants to get into it . I ummed and arrrred about the Billericay club for ages but it was the lack of night venues that always put me off to be honest . I don’t drive , never have , and my Mrs or occasionally a mate would take me/pick me up etc so when I used to Carp fish I would go for 2 or 3 nights as it was always easier to arrange transport . plus on day sessions it was time to leave by the time I got set up 😊 My Mrs getting up at 3.30 to take me fishing was never happening , she’d drop me off at the Chase in Dagenham ( where I was a member) on a Friday afternoon and come get me on Sunday or Monday . Anyway back to venues , as I say , any half decent day tickets have now gone secret squirrel round here by all accounts . Im looking forward to getting back into it all albeit slowly . It’ll be like a complete novice again , back to my roots and all that . Shame there’s no decent Barbel fishing round here , that’s what I’d really like 🤣
