The Roach Basher

Happens alot on commercials, but if they blank and you catch on another spot, it feels great.... Or "Accidentally" trip over his bait bucket, fish the margin tomorrow lol...

About 1500 to spare? Already WDNAC and Dallington AC member and ex-Castle AA

Anyone know anywhere round Northampton with tickets left....Ive took a year off work to do some serious Carp fishing, looking round theres not many night permits about local . 24hr tickets at 20-25 quid a time are bankrupting me fast..Spoke to 3 day bailiffs this year,different lakes, who all said at least 5 members renew membership but only fish 2/3 times a year, one not seen in over 2 years, its ridiculous in their opinion and mine. I do 3/4 nights a session, at least once a month. Cheers.

Floating bread/dog biscuits are always worth a go on moving water imo, and liquidized bread/sloppy mix going in (same as boat waste) ....I live very close to GUC Northampton, seen loads of carp first light cycling to/from work.

Fair play to you lads.. I've always fancied pike fishing but never confident enough to unhook them , so dont bother trying. Caught a few by accident, great fight. Getting spiked by perch is enough for me..Saw a guy land a 28lb from the GUC last year.
