  1. They all float so with minimal weight should be able to use them as bottom baits too
  2. I’ve just been making flys an grubs ready for spring I think I’m getting a bit better
  3. All my local lakes are closed as they’re attractions play park etc so I can’t go and I’m itching to wet a line I love fishing this time of yr guys
  4. I’ve heard the same I’m glad I’ve been stocking up on boilies so glad I got my own freezer
  5. Well I’ve still been walking the lake and giving them some food in the only 2 bits Ice free but I don’t think this lockdown is going anywhere soon you can’t even go in a supermarket now unless the police see your card why you haven’t a mask I can see me losing my patience soon I understand about the hospitals but when they’ve closed 4 and moved the patients they had to a short staffed brand new hospital where the staff don’t even know the layout then this COVID on top no wonder they’re over run now there arragant old bill half my age grabbing me by my shoulder where’s your mask who the blooming hell put 10 pence in his coin slot Rant over now gggrrr I’ve really had enough
  6. I’ve used Brazil’s and found them quite light in weight and also found little 10mm size bits better than a whole nut tbh another point for you cut a fresh nut you get an oily juice not with an old nut fresher the better Most rigs will work with a Brazil tbh just lengthen the hair slightly and use a pva bag or tape to stop a tangle as they are quite light hope this is some help
  7. Hope you and yours continue to be safe elmo I would like to meet you all at a social sometime
  8. I’ve fed these 2 since they were very young birds the male will eat out of my hand which is nice they are wild swans so the trust he must have is awesome I think
  9. Went to put a bit of bait in only 2 tiny bits of water that wasn’t frozen give it to them anyway even if the birds eat it at least they’ve eaten
  10. I’m off to put a bit of bait in where I can later an hopefully catch the main bailiff to have a chat and show him the latest an get him on it about the fishing otherwise it won’t happen
  11. I’ve asked my MP to elaborate what he said is walking distance ie your town or city
  12. I’m saying I’m going fishing it all depends on the local council that runs the park if they say we can fish chances are the park will stay closed to angling but I will go up the mountain pond for a few hrs if that’s the case
  13. If we are on our own an stick to the rules what’s the problem like I said I walk to go fishing fishing is my medicine it’s what helps my mental health 😔
  14. I’m allready making boilies ready I walk to my local and I’m days only anyway not on the syndicate yet
  15. I’ve written to my local MP underlying my mental health issues and how they’ve closed every outlet I had of helping my mental health. Woke up to an email from him this morning. We shall talk later he says, fingers crossed 🤞. I walk about 4-5 miles with my gear to my water. Where is the problem? I fish on my own even tho I’m not supposed to. I’m at least 10 foot from people in most of the swims.
  16. I’ve used vitalin for yrs too I use a tin of condensed milk with baileys you can’t over do it as it’s all natural warm up the baileys add the condensed milk stir and away you go works a treat warm in the colder months as it changes the temp around the method ball if hot 👍👍
  17. Thank you to you and family for being there right in the thick of it 👏👏👏
