Soooo have you found your Gizmo yet ??

Looks like a big F1 🤔

That’s just crazy what a waste, I enjoy going back over the old posts especially the pics and to lose the info … as Newmarket says it’s a shame

I rode over the dock to check out the Carp in their spawning areas to numerous to count them, still a bit of gentle foreplay going on…wish they get a move on 🙄

Yup I stand corrected 😳…I would have to upgrade to a padlock instead of the sticky tape that’s on the lid tho

Well that was a short 24hr trip … the Carp decided to get a bit amorous so had to pull off the dock 😂

I used to dig Rag and Lugworm in my teens for the sea anglers who fished the local foreshore for the big opens near me and would fish in the dock for small Pouting for Conger baits used to keep them alive in a bucket, I always cut the tail so they couldn’t weigh them in. Cant remember what I charged them tho …it was 50 odd years ago 😳

Could unhook it when the net is in the water with the fish

How much did the Lug cost ?

Just had a 6lb Bream 😞

The chariot is ready for a silly o’clock start tomorrow morning, tbf all I had to get ready was food and water. Minimum 24 hours maybe longer

Corrr look at the size on that 😳…. What have you been feeding him .. Rudd ? 🤔

I hope you don’t mind me saying Elmo but I’m concerned about your back door not the condition of it, but saying that it could do with a bit of TLC…just saying 😉 It’s the bottom panel of the door. I strengthened the other side of the panel of my door with half inch MDF after repairing a friend’s door similar to yous she had a break in what they did was kick in the panel as it’s quarter inch plywood..Fast forward a year and I noticed someone had a go at my door in the same spot but luckily the mdf saved the day.

When I used my Tempest for the 1st time I forgot to peg it out didn’t realise till I packed up, the axs looks similar. 👍

The more I look at the pic the crazier it seems Maybe the pic must trumps a kingfisher on a rod 🤔

When i was fishing I asked a guy who a syndicate member of the lake nx door how was it fishing and he said they had a a tragedy on the lake the day before a angler had a fit fell into the lake and drowned, he was 27 years old and left a wife and two young children. So sad.

And if you do go back they will be bigger 👍

Sounds promising Elmo looks like you got the location spot on and another 24 hours to go. Nice pic 👍

I like how you caught the bird in flight in the bottom pic 👏

Hard going, had a Carp almost a double, Bream and a lovely Tench almost 5lb which made my day.

Got a cold east wind blowing but I’m tucked out of it warm in the sun tho

I must being getting older…or wiser, 1st things I put in my bag was suntan lotion, baseball cap and bottle of water.

Best of luck Elmo 🤞…I got the afternoon off so I’m off at 12 to fish to early evening.

I thought that was a Cat at first 😳 Nice pic 👍

Listen mate sell some of your gear to fund getting a half decent cheap bike you got your independence back then, fish light and be mobile on the canals, think positively this is the chance to fish this summer on the canals until things turn around for you to get a car 👍
