Had to get a decent pair of boots, got them in the go outer door shop. My mate has had a pair for awhile he’s done 300 miles over 4 months in all weathers and trails and recommended them, very light with no breaking in and comfortable. Black Friday £99…gone up to £125 Got a set of Merino wool base layers top and bottoms can’t speak highly enough of them, mountain warehouse had them in a sale both for £60 You can get them cheaper but go for a high percentage of Merino which cost more.

Well done on sorting out the Cards 👍

Been doing a couple of sea beach trips lately and I was faced with convincing a rag worm to get on a 2/0 hook. A beach walker came up to ask have i had any fish. I had the worm in one hand and the hook in the other and said to the guy last time I baited up was in 1986 not sure I can do it 🤢 He laughed and I just got on with it. Got a pouting on the worm knocked the fish on the head and put that on a bigger hook and catch a small conger. ..but for a moment I struggled. In the past had no problem with peeler or hardback for smooth hound or live bait I could never eat a lobster, crab or prawns, ok with fish and the best tasting one Iv had is pollock, which was on the bbq within 30 mins of catching it yummy !

As mat pics go nothing wrong with that mate 👍

I swear I drank something similar in a coffee shop 🤔

Had no time for carp fishing been rushed off my feet in work always is at this time year which I’m grateful for. So been nipping over the local foreshore no cod showing yet just scrap Conger Me and a mate fished Saturday early evening for the tide up which was to high really almost 13meters

Just googled it around 150 miles … I could do it at a push 😏

I think mate you got the wrong B B 😄 Iv sadly never fished the Nene valley

Had a short session trip this afternoon 4hrs on the feeder, you can actually see the feeder I was using in one of the pics

Navitas sherpa joggas, Mmmmm there toasty £40 Two rod tripod £40 and bits and bobs

Now we know who eat all the pies 😳…congratulations on the pb 👍

Was going to put the pics in a view from a bivvy chair 🙄 Had a go at sea fishing with bait last time was in 1986 I remember the date as that was the year I finished fishing with a local club and had enough of the comps and big opens every Sunday I used for the trip my 3 1/2 test rod and 8k reel with a shock leader 4 oz lead good up to a 5oz .. wow was getting great distances

Oops

My fishing buddy has lost his sense of smell since the early days of Covid…which like he said it’s God send with me riding in the car with him 😏

I’m confused by your pic mate …which water are you fishing got two lakes in the pic 🤔 Best of luck 🤞

Nice 👍

Nice photo album of your trip Kev 👍

Been using this magnifying glass past couple of years got a built in light which helps and doubles up as a bivvy light

The rod rest looks good as do rod and reel 👍

Nice 👍 I use a Korum accessory chair very stable but gets uncomfortable after a while, I also had the adjustable rod arm but couldn’t get on with it only had to move a little and it looked like I had a bite…it came in handy once when I have a run in with an aggressive mouse I had the beast cornered in the shed we had a bit of a standoff somewhat similar to a Clint Eastwood spaghetti movie after a tense 5 mins he made the 1st move and I whacked him with the rod arm it broke and literally so did the mouse 🤢

Umm where’s the pic of the chair 🤔

Congratulations on your PB 👍

Just tried to explain to Mrs B B why I’m checking out the hole on the lid of our saucepan ….she said I’m just being stupid now 😏

I think it’s called “Carpy looking” when they get dirty. Il be taking two of the 8k’s sea fishing soon. Got two spare spools the deep ones that come with the reels load them up with line and shock leaders … did you manage to get shallow spools after ?
