Best of luck mate…how far across is it to the other anglers swim ?

Great write up and pic 👍

That’s just reel porn … I’m surprised the mods let you get away with it

For a long time Iv been thinking about cutting down the amount of gear I take on short afternoon sessions after work, had to be quite ruthless wasn’t easy I can tell you but it had to be done ...

Iv had a run in with a deliver bike he must have been going 20mph he skidded to a stop and we both went down, sadly I lost my balance as I got up and stood on his front wheel damaging the spokes then would you believe it trying to untangle my foot I stepped on the back wheel 🫢

That’s sad losing a fishing buddy, I’m way to far away to you best of luck finding someone 👍

Nice, I found I was foot tapping, got anymore ?

I’ve got the shallow as well as the deep spools. Just weighed the both and the deep comes in with line at 7oz and the shallow with line 5oz… I was a bit bored 😁

On a great run there mate 👍

I can’t remember the last time I caught a Eel, il be well happy with a 2lb on a feeder rod but defo not on a carp rod

Mmm nice 😎

Well done lads on the June captures 👍

How times change, looked in the freezer this evening and noted that I got more sea bait than carp bait 3k ish of cell and 2 k of sticky krill 2 packs of Squid, 6 Mackerel, 2 packs of Sand Eels and best of all a dozen crabs

I feel your pain Are there 200 carp in the lake ? where did the info come from, are other anglers catching if they are tell them your struggling and would appreciate any info. The reason I ask about the 200 fish is a mate fishing a water last year found it more difficult than usual then found out recently that there had been a fish kill which he didn’t have a clue about. Warm weather is here and il be on the zigs 👍

That tree would make me a bit nervy

Indeed I am, nice reels solid with a good line lay 👍 Today Iv had them returned to me I lent them out to a mates kids they had them for around a month to try out carp fishing the one lad is keen and looks like he’s going to give it a go the other is defo not. Been awhile since I got all them all together so I thought a family pic was in order, all Okuma

Looks a belter 👍

Wow that got ugly quickly.

You can’t go wrong for that price 👍

Now I’m confused here ( I know it doesn’t take a lot ) iv got a set of set of Korum 10 ft all rounders in 2 .25 and a set of Dave Lane Classic in 12 ft 3.lb with a 3.25 that I use for marking and Spoding ..umm oh yeah 🤔 A set of 12 ft 3.50 Prologic Fulcrum … and not forgetting the very naughty set of ESP onyx Quickdraw 10 ft 3.50 The reason for purchasing the ESP set was I needed to get my gear down to a minimum and they pack down to 50 inches, the 3.50 because I was using bags as I thought I couldn’t complete with the bait that was going in the water I was fishing and the thinking a bag approach would be the best option Soooo am I a fashionable or unfashionable angler? 🤔 Or just got to much gear 🫢

There you going again spoiling them 🙄 Nice reels 😎

I had one for a couple of years and it got the job done 👍

You both could have a practice casting if there’s a field or park land near, good fun for a hour 👍
