...

Trying to get all the outside jobs done while decent enough weather.... So more 🎣🎣 time then 😁... Also when wife asks, she's 1 of them "Will it be done tomorrow?"...

Had a busy few weeks.... The Front Drive is now done, gates are up... At weekend removed old Gazebo and hot tub, Jet washed all around the house paths and decking, this morning started to re paint all front yard fences. Hoping to be done by Friday, maybe out for a day sesh Saturday. Then in April start on the back garden, build free standing pergola (got all the bits except the perspex roof), reprint all back fences and sheds.

As long as humanly possible... If i was Single I'd be out every day / every weekend.

I have this 1 too, but gonna get the Vader X Net soon.

The Sonik Xtractor 42" was a decent pack down net, very light too.

Prologic Cruzade Camo Landing Net

Think it's the same for us all on here.... Not heard of anything decent from round my end... Hopefully soon 🤞

Nothing else doing Keith?, you see anything after we left yesterday?.... Many on?

Anyone go to Northern Angling show yesterday or going this morning?... Setting off in 30 mins.... Hope some good deals.

Out doin Keith

The Sonik SKtek Storm Poles are Ideal and the ones they come with.... Nah, was a blank Bruno, mate caught though.

I think it's OK myself, but it won't let me upload any pics for some reason, I never used my wrap Last night, had some condensation inside bivvy, but not much, was cold enough for wrap though, but little lad and dog had my bed, so I was in Trakker suit on recling Sonik Chair... Got 3 hours in.

Blank Bruno.... I got there about 5.30pm last night, walked the lake until about 8pm with the Deeper, found a few fish in 7ft of water, some on bottom, some 4ft up... So settled there. Mate had 1 fish, about 7lb.

Half way up road side opposite aerator, the only place we've found/seen fish.... Mate is to left and I'm to right of it.... Packing up about 12 tomorrow , setting off home about 1... Had a few liners, just stuck a Zig out now....

Got here for about 5.30, had a walk round with mate with the Deeper, found a few on road side opposite aerator, nothing anywhere else, 1 fish come out so far, nothing big, setup in dark, doing to about 1pm tomorrow.

Brolly - can't have front on, add groundsheet, no vents on bivvy. Shelter - vents, add a front or groundsheet at later date. Bivvy - Everything of the above and sticks. Overwrap - fits all 3

The storm poles only come with the bivvy system... Other storm poles may fit, I tried the NGT ones and they were fine.

Hi New, I've got the AXS Bivvy system and Wrap. I started off with the AXS Brolly for days, then I added the Wrap for the Nights. Absolutely love em. The Brolly is 5,000 HH, Shelter is 10,000 HH, Bivvy 10,000 HH, Wrap 10,000 HH. I'm actually out tonight with the Bivvy and Wrap. The wrap when putting on (to me) is absolutely taught, and makes the brolly/bivvy a little flappy inside, but when it's on Its veeeery dark. All up in minutes is a plus point, but I've had 1 flaw and it was the Hub on top of the AXS range is made from plastic and 1 has actually broken on me, but Sonik sent a replacement no problem.

I've just prepped all gear to one side for tomorrow... Mate just been for my deeper n Marker Rod, he's there in afternoon, before me so wants a good cast around.... I'll be there about 4/5 now, doing the night until about 1pm Saturday. Hopefully have my 1st Fish of the year 🤞

Maybe Daiwa Tournament.... Could even be Whiskers???... Not sure on what model??... Ss300??

I'll be there about 6/7pm Friday to about 1pm Saturday. Hope all goes well/OK for your wife Keith.

Lodge pal... Last time was there was the Carp Match when you came down... 5 MONTHS GO 😳. Need get back to normality with that place.

I hate it me... Yesterday was a wasted day sat in waiting for 3 ton gravel to be delivered, also waiting for car to be fixed (new fuel system).... Both happened to be ready at same time this morning. So went and picked car up, while was there, driver phoned and said I'm at your property... Got back and put 3 ton gravel down over the wire mesh on drive, whackered that down, just need gates arrive now. Can't be stuck inside me, I'm out walking at least everyday, I'm hoping be on the bank Friday night (will be after little ens footy training, so will be setup in dark), doing till about 1pm Saturday.

20lb will be pushing it... I've seen a 17lb

Just spoke to em, open 7 days s week daen to dusk... £8 for 2 rods, may introduce night fishing later in year....
