Aha don't suppose he was wearing a white boiler suite and a ski mask?? π I went out river fishing for carp last Thursday evening to a spot I've seen and caught a few carp from. Arrived at location around 6pm raked my spot got gear in order ect and started fishing around 8.30pm Around 10:15pm I hear almost footsteps, more of a rustling sound So I open bivvy door to see a white silhouette walk past around 20 yards away I ask are you OK mate He just ignores me and turns his headlight off At this point I'm thinking what the (I know this naughty word is banned but I decided to use it any way because I can't control myself) is someone doing in out here and why is he ignoring me So i decided to stay outside tent and make a tea, just to see if he/she walks back By the time the kettle had boiled I could see this individual walking back down towards me with head torch on.. As he approached i called you OK mate? He turns his light off and as he walks past I realise he's wearing a boiler suite fully done up with hood up and all I could see was a black ski mask π€ͺπ€ͺπͺπ€’ as he goes past he just looks back The chills it gave me pure fear πππ and not embarrassed to say And to top it off as I'm stuffing my gear into the van My alarms start going mental... I'm thinking nooooo he's robbing my rods π π lucky it wasnt the looney in the boiler suite Have never packed up so quickly https://www.screwfix.com/p/dupont-tyvek-classic-hooded-coverall-white-x-large-42-46-chest-31-l/24714?tc=VB5&ds_kid=92700048793290415&ds_rl=1244069&gclid=CjwKCAjwyo36BRAXEiwA24CwGcdlSPn-_N3R5jiSyPSRyYniUfo2tG2Q9Mh7PunerAqfHyVH9k9LDBoCJt8QAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds

Hated them with a passion they were like poker sticks no feel of any fight to the fish and a fair few hook pulls Have been catching carp mainly on the rivers And have been offered x 2 greys air curve rods 3ib tc for 200 Or some free spirit ctx 2.75 x2 rods for 160 used twice Or again the free spirit ctx x2 rods 3ib tc brand new for 200 Now I'd like something that can reach me at least 100 yards. Has anyone had any experience with the above rods are they good prices I've also been offered some greys gt3 Β£50 a rod they've been used Kind regards in advance

Midlands park lakes
Marvoulous barbless replied to telford carper's topic in UK Venues and Where to Fish
Thanks for your reply mate much appreciated.im hoping your wrong,surely there's got be some, I'm meeting a fella on 16th of this month, he fished it last year who says he knows there's carp in one of the lakes,(I hope he's right) either way it will be a beautiful place to place a rod. Yeah tbh mate I would not tell a sole either. Haven't had the chance to walk around Powell's yet. Will keep my eyes peeled for that spot when I'm down there. I heard you mention lakes in great barr, are they safe too approach mate? Would like to pay them a visit, -
