No...this place there oartial to white baits...so give alk my whites ago.

Carp only...2 rods...10 anglers. Think it will be a good match as the pond has been shut for 3 weeks as new fish have been introduced.

Well ive opted for the 24hr match...you never know...could be chance of a PB and a 1st place...either way...IM OUT FISHING 🎣🎣🎣

I have started off literally everything NGT...rods..reels..luggage..terminal. The only things ive kept is the carryall for my terminal bits n bobs & brew kit bag. The rods i had were the Maxx and upgraded to Sonik SK3..Reels were tiny and upgraded to Sonik 8000's. The terminal tackle boxs are ok for little bits of terminal. Kettle, toastie maker, gas stove adaptor, are all good. There sleepsytems look good too. But as a starter they would last about 12month (ish) but ive gone to Sonik now for most stuff...love the Brand.

At some point i do wanna play/catch one...but not really looking to fish for em...

Well...there's 2 now...Fan lodge in Wigan n theres a few 20's been out in past week...Mere Lane in Burscough (near southport) only small but around 20ft in places, ive always had doubles from there but also a few 20's been out recently....also a Sturgeon (Percy) around 33lb mark.

Dilema...🤔🤔🤔 Do i fish a 24hr Carp match or fish a lake with plenty of potential to catch my 1st 20lber ??? Sunday 5th May

Me n Lad made it into local paper...bottom 2nd from left... British Legions support also...

I had these given to me once by a mate when i first started off...didn't know how good they were at first as i was only just into carp fishing and was a bottom fisher only...wish i had kept them now.

As stated by others..Well Done and prasie all round...Life Saver. The consequences could have been far worse. 🏅🏅🏅

Seen a few reviews about these.... https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F132716728347

Yesterday while i was on bank...2 police ifficers turned up in an unmarked car and asked a few lads some details...well thought it was E.A at first...usually sometimes they follow with the Police.

I also have 30lb YELLOW banana braid loaded on mine...but only used once since ive bought it...thinking of parting with my spod setup (Daiwa G50 Spod rod & Sonik Vader X Spod Reel) as im mainly a bag/pva ball man myself...

Sad news for Iain Macmillan....

I would be fuming...no notifications of it before you left ??

Most i went / castibg too will be about 50yrds...only got the Fox Impact spod...but will be investing in a actual Spomb n floater tail.. 👍👍👍

So would you jus go braid straight through to Spod...with the 2 loop knot ??

Daiwa Black widow G50 spod rod and Sonik Vader X spod reel with 30lb..banana braid loaded. But may change the end Fox Spod to an actual Spomb with the float also...just the attachment arrangement i want properly...probably do the 2 loop knot with a tail rubber of knot and link...with about 2-3 foot rig tubing as protection.

Hi Guys...last time i was out i used my spod rod for 1st time n wasnt really keen the way spod was attached...basically spomb was attached using a palomar knot straight through... Would this be ok ??? but doesn't state what knot would be suitable.

All pallets were treated too before laying...leveled out...reinforced...around 800kg when filled (i think)

Not bad for 4 days work... Day 1..few pallets home from work and layed a level base. Day 2 & 3...25 x 3m decking boards gone on with facia too. Day 4 (today)...3 coats of No Nonsense decking oil... Below is what will be going back on..

The NEWngt alarms do have a resemblance to delks in my opinion...they were on show at the Northern Angling Show...didn't really like em... Had the TFgear Mag rollers...1 case leaked and had a loose wire...so i soldered back in place and rewaterproofed before passing in to a friend.

Have the Sonik SKS 4 Alarms..Receiver n Bivvy light. The bivvy light lights up to the colour of what the alarm has a run on it...but i never have the bivvy light on...cant fault them really...dropped in lake n still working...could di with a case though like Delks n Fox alarms. You can get a set of 3 with reciever n bivvy light for around £100 if you look propper...

Sounds abit like some of the old Carp storys from most Carp waters...hear about a big en...then off everyone goes... But also reminds of the film "Stand by me" 3/4 lads on the hunt for the young boy.
