I intend to do some sea fishing locally for the cod this winter, in my angling past I’ve sold my gear from sea fishing to freshwater to sea boat fishing and back again. All the best Keith just be happy with your fishing 👍 @ the mods can’t we have a sub forum for the sea angler’s among us ?

I think my carp fishing is over for the foreseeable future, I'm just so bored with it at the moment, I won't be renewing my night card or day ticket. I actually went shore fishing a couple of weeks ago and I'm back in love with my sea fishing, I went with a couple of mates and had a great time, I only caught a few whiting but the thing is you don't know what's on the end of that line, I had to borrow a rod and reel from my mate, because I'd sold all my gear but guess what I'm starting a fresh with new gear and I can't wait. I did keep 1 rod and tomorrow I'm going out to buy a new reel. I will be hanging around on the forum and keeping my eye on things, it's been great being part of this forum and had great advice and learnt a lot in my short time in carp fishing but my first love for fishing has always been sea fishing even though it involves more travelling and cost but I don't really care, it's all about enjoying my fishing and over the last 2 years I've not really been enjoying myself. So I wish everybody tight lines and great fishing and catches and will be keeping an eye on things. All the best Keith.

We’ve all had to do it one time or another, hope your Mrs has a speedy recovery…. Just don’t spend to much money on gear you don’t need on your lay off from fishing 😉

Thankfully it's not up to you lol I will carry on with the lead clip because as you've pointed out, set up as I do it comes off - always! 👍

Yes was very sad, I just hope it all works out for him, I never met him but had some good chats with him and we shared some ideas and he made me some special concoctions the last bait he made me was going to be our little secret for a while,as we both felt it was a great tweak and a bit special, and it did work too, but yes great angler, he seems to be loving the barbel fishing these days, and he's caught some mahoosive monster chub recently too, As for me I'm sure I will find another boilie that will work, but I will miss having the chats and doing the tinkerings , that's the bit I will find hardest to replace, that's what made it that bit special, all his baits I used caught first time out as well, put in the right spot they couldn't resist them, made me look like I knew what I was doing 😀
