  1. El Freddo out doing terrier stuff
  2. My happy place lately has been helping a few mates out on their rounds forgot how much of a laugh we make it worked out nice my fitness levels are a lot more acceptable than last year. Hecking up at this time and ready to go...OK.
  3. Might try my local go out doors see what wadders they have before commiting to the trakka from AD, I need a gas can wadders and bankstick nothing else oh and a few buckets for my gourmet delights to be served from, luckily I noticed the base rim of my bucket has perished noticed when spooling line luckly, that could of been messy on route. my last motor stank of shrimp and wet dog, my fiesta looked like the inside of terry hearns bait bucket, not heard anything from Terry recently?
  4. Swann feed and baits great little place his prices are some of the best around for large orders super fresh hemp seed in different sizes gets it in bulk and always sets the price as low as possible depending on what he paid for it.
  5. At the risk of getting another thread started, I'm not even sure if I have had covid, covid is a cold virus I'm not really a cold and flu catcher I don't think it likes my metabolism rate, stomach problems are my problem, I need to make sure I take a harty dump daily I use the Indian method of crouch not sit which is the best position, It's why I take prozac nothing to do with being mentally depressed trust me I was blown away by the results on my stomach yet prozac would be on my avoid list normally, tried to get me on ritolin years back, no way lol I wouldn't even take amphetamines when out partying hate the stuff.
  6. Should be getting a new set of wadders tomorrow looks like it's the trakka or cygnet depending what's in stock looking at something you can keep on that doesn't also double as a fallout suit. The trakka look good nice and light with adjustments. Looking good for Thursday she had a pre op today so a short window before I can't get out for a bit, ain't been near the place since last summer got the rods ready bait done rig case full one barrow load straight into the wagon, oh and I will be having a few out.
  7. Carp love hemp, seriously though my catch rate improved after giving up smoking. Did anyone else see those gimmick boilies on sale a few years back green in colour and said to include hemp flowers industrial obviously. I found a tub of krill Hard hookers I glugged in krill liquid a few years back they are still good and packed with krill juice will be using them this year, also got a tub of manila pop ups that have been soaking in JBs milk liquid they smell delicious will be using those as well.
  8. Over 12 hours in that robin orange is looking good they stayed nice and solid in the centre deffo be using those pop ups, be making some with 300 grams of 50 50 later keep em fresh for later in the week.
  9. I try to change on every cast unless it's a quick recast for better placement depends on the water though on a good day at a runs water you can get away with having a few out on the same hook bait.
  10. Glass test on the pop up and fast breakdown baits.
  11. Don't worry they will open one local soon enough really like my local AD they do everything at all prices.
  12. No call for maggs no way admittedly I don't use them due to not live baiting but even angling direct sell maggots.
  13. The darker and lighter shades is due to differant amounts of liquid in each half kilo mix one has more squid than the other will be doing some hookbaits out of the darker portion said it bef9re but, that talin really does make for a very appealing scent really does work well with the JB flavours.
  14. A batch of maximum krill with beef liver and glm really like these got a squid liquid and the glm butter nut cell also got maximum betaine yeasts and nut flours.
  15. Ecton are looking at the waiting list this week you never know if you email via their web site you might get a ticket for this year.
  16. Setting up and more so packing away are the most off putting bit of angling Lucky for me I can get it round in one barrow load plus a bit of hand carrying , what I'm really pleased with is the MPV that just takes the whole barrow fully loaded in fact I could get four fully loaded barrows in it easy. Solid motor. Only got 58 on the clock with fsh and it annoys the green beans, practical motoring in a 2.9 diesel 6 person seats removed lol. https://youtu.be/ea68HcbP02o
  17. Just renewed my Ecton ticket just about having to replace the motor put me back a bit should be out next week.
  18. Did grab a tub of the sticky signature pop ups and spray I wanted the plum ones sticky do for AD but as always none in the local shop.
  19. Another catapult something I seem to go through I got a fox one a few years back got the odd shape handle that is set forward not good on the wrist plus the elastic has snapped at the frame twice now so it's a short range these days. Just got the fox powerpult with hand guard Also grabbed a fox PowerPoint bankstick as having three rods on a pod is annoying when one rod is close in.
  20. Ha, snapped the first on on the first use looks like you really need to line the tag end up to pass through without the material doubling up in the splice, tricky, you bet.
  21. Next time I put a order in in going for the whey and egg white powder in the base mix 5 percent of each and you can do a no egg mix meaning i can get more of buttercell nut in glm liquid in.
  22. Got the HD in 18 lb I did want the hydrotuff in a lower break but you takes what they have, 0.39 so I should be OK for straight through nice line it's what I have on my reels from last year that was a lower break though.
  23. Just bought a pack of three by thinking angler had to look at the tips as one pack was already carrying a broken one look a bit thin but I only need them to tie a few very short leadcore leaders 8 to 12 Ince for a inline set up just enough so the mainline is not kicking up at the lead.
  24. The mixer could do with being larger it won't do a kilo without some stopping and starting to rearrange the mix, putting the liquid in first and half a kilo of mix on top of the liquid works best switch on and it mixes in no time. Glad I went with the kitchen aid really does handle a very stiff mix I would still go with the buffalo as it is bigger only the sale ended before I could get one, plus the Mrs got me this on here store card from currys... and not one cake has been made lol. She is a good angler herself just doesn't have any interest in carp fishing other than seriose mickey taking, you should hear it when the korda lads are on the telly, she naned the dog after freddie mercury.
  25. Those electric caulking guns are the swizz so much effort saved you can do a kilo in two loads flys through it.
