There is Burton Carp Pit which seems to have quite a lot of 20's and a few 30's in there. I know nothing about it myself other than where it is and that its a syndicate. Its not far from The Pirelli stadium in Stretton, Burton on Trent.

I will have a look for them. They sound more like my kind of thing. I think when I think of reading it needs a similar layout to that of a book aged at pre school kids lol Haha, I am hoping this will be the case for me too!
-
I will have a look about. I said to the wife I am thinking of buying a book to take fishing and said laughed and said "well that's a waste of money, you hate reading" which is true so I can't condone spending loads, I would probably read 2 pages and put it down. I will keep an eye out for books definitely though. Cheers

Thanks for the recommendation. I will keep an eye out for one. I did think about reselling it so that could be alright. I guess even if it costs me £5 to read it then it wouldn't be too bad at all. Thanks

I saw the library thread and it got my thinking that taking a book to read while fishing might not be a bad idea. I am thinking of a fishing/carp but I won't spend a fortune as in all honesty I hate reading. I have never fully read a book in my adult life so it would need to be decent. Any suggestion would be great. No more than £8/10 maximum please. Thanks

Unfortunately I don't have any experience with it but at the price and going of the reviews on the site it seems a good price. If you look on eBay, shpock and Gumtree you can find some bargains too. I guess if you want brand new on a budget it seems great.
-
Thanks. I will check them out!
-
Thanks for the link that looks alright and if you have got 10 years out of them it can't be bad. At the price even a couple of years would be brilliant.

I am always trying to nick a bargain on eBay so am happy to keep an eye out. If I need to wait then I will wait, its the main game in fishing anyway! Thanks I have been looking at Okuma actually so glad you said this! I'd never heard of them before but they do look alright. Thanks

Oh right, I guess going years ago with my brother in law who only has Shimano reels means I just got the name from that. I will have a loo at the ST one's and see if I can find a cheap used one. Cheers
-
I am looking for a cheap reel, preferably a bait runner, has anyone got any suggestions? When I say cheap I mean under £25 as it won't be used a lot just as a spare reel and I hope to upgrade my gear as I start to catch bigger fish, for now I can't imagine its going to work too hard! Also while on the subject what is the difference between free spool and bait runner? Thanks
-
The Fox Rapide range holder/opener thing looks brilliant. Thanks for the vid.

The weather and fishing.

Fair enough! Maybe over time I will start the threads. Cheers

With summer seeming to have done one I am now starting to think about Autumn and Winter having never really done it I wondered what adjustments people make to their set ups, baits etc for the coming months to keep the bites coming in. Also what effects does the weather have on fishing? I hear about high/low pressure, wind direction, rain etc which benefit/hinder catching? Cheers

Lol, I won't say Willesley then! There is a place in Overseal called Spring Cottage Fishery that has carp up to 28lb on the Oak pool. I am a beginner so don't go on that one yet. There is Beehive Farm at Rosliston that has up to 20lb, Longton in Ashbourne is supposed to be good as well.
