I know mate I said the same π€£ it's alright for him he works in a tackle shop so gets them cheaper but still kind of expensive in my eyes π€£
Just gotta keep chipping away at it, keep searching for them. I've had 4 on the bank this year, had 3 with in a couple hours on one session lol. All to snowmen with like 10 baits over each rod. It works so I gotta stick with it and not chop/change when it gets hard lol. Maybe less bait as the year goes on. I dunno, feels like this canal has made my head fall off π€£
@elmoputney my other mate feeds a lot of pellet, catches carp but gets done by a lot of bream, like 3 - 4 a night some times π€£
Back down there for a walk later, then fishing tomorrow for the day, then probably back Friday afternoon through to Monday π
