Always liked the lakes in question the owner is very private with them so I don't name his lakes, very popular massive waiting list, just outside Wellingborough. I was surprised the other week a big name angler tried for membership, got turned down permanently that's how non publicity the place is. The angler that got the recent ban was using a drone, and pictures ended up online the drone would get you banned from any lake? I could name the lakes and owner but that wouldn't be overstepping the mark a bit.

Probably not for previous members of said lake owner, I don't like to name drop or give obvious detail just commenting on a very typically funny post I saw on face book whilst looking for a lake membership. The company in question with rude photos up was advanced hook baits, not advanced baits, I was going to message the lake owner, say I hear he has a ticket going 😍

Well that's a bit rude, I have walked away from that and the other on more than one occasion. Then again snide remarks are not nothing new with this crowd, ever so nice IRL though. Lucky for you site rules don't apply evenly on carp . com 😂

Suppose I best pull the gear out and see what's what I know I need spod braid I'm good for bait got a freezer full and a large sack of pellets probably going to need a weed rake at some point ticket starts in May so plenty of time to get a few bits. What this year's go to rig? Be chods by June on a long as length of boom as you dare

Lol, see a certain lake owner has had the yearly clean out, sounds like he has a angry bait tester kicking off a fella from advanced baits this time, I did hear tell getting caught using sticky baits got you a black mark I reckon you could add advanced to that. He is a fair enough guy to be honest I got kicked down to my own actions just disliked not being told until renewal and others do the same as I did ,but hey guess we all can't have a "housemate" at home.😇 some pink mafia stuff going off I'm sure of it. Pretty sure I was the victim of a bit of smack talking some of the regulars would make a few jokes I didn't join in with but probably got back that I was taking the rip.

Midweek membership at Ecton all lakes but will mainly be on Jigsaw or Clover I reckon.

I sometimes engage with the more extreme end of the EWs on twitter they ain't got a clue it's all political opportunist trying to sell the impossible I'm fairly well informed on hunting with dogs or hounds and terriers to be correct, I school the fool out of them on the many environmental and and wildlife positives there are in using dogs as opposed to any other method, you just need to get them to admit there is a need for predator/pest control, they can get a bit irate as they like control the narrative of there is no need for hunting of any sort. Keeps me busy better than a crossword puzzle.

I just use cheap line to fill the spool up, wool works really well. I try to count the handle turns call it a yard per turn or there abouts.

See Glebe is up for exclusive hire. I have been meaning to ask how much the mid week ticket is on jigsaw you have to ask about the mid week ticket, I doubt I'm going to be out enough to justify a season ticket.

Plenty to chose from in the shops, I've no idea what a emulsion is but that's what you need to make when using liquid attraction in water, John Baker goes into detail. Some of the Asian shops near me have liquids I have never seen before fruits, meat, fish, nuts, seeds everything.

Sounds like a nice venue no pressure 😇

I use a bankstick to prop the top end of the bedchair up mine is a fold flat no adjustment wheels, bankstick with a decent butrest on does the job, haven't seen those spare legs about in a while good idea but most will buy after they need one.

Just had another thought, bet it's the insides they have a viewing later in the week, all cleaners hate doing the insides.

Just when I think I'm out they drag me back in! Tell you if I had a window cleaner that couldn't do the whole property I would find a different one mates mum is selling up asked me to nip round and do what the window cleaner missis out?

Kingsbury? That's a thought not been up in a while got to take the dog out in a bit and finish running the DPF cleaner through the motor be just the right distance.

Best option I use for deep weed is what I picked up from Kingsbury, the long chod as in you set it a long way up from the lead horrible when you drop a nice fish though they do get off easy.

That was fast four weeks today for tests, have started to use mullein leaf extract it is what you would treat a chest infection with before antibiotics where about, see if it makes the results any better on the breathing capacity tests. Meant to be a lung cleaner and anti inflammatory medicine certainly makes things less tight. Consultant will probably look at me like I visited a bush doctor 😷

Best bit is the RSPB have also fenced some waters they also use terriers and shooters on their land otters are over protected think the longterm plan is to introduce a animal that will compete with the otter, same people that think foxes do vermin control by feeding on rats, the level of denial is frightening.

Got the letter from the breathing specialist doing more breathing teats as he doesn't think I have COPD also not pleased with the spirometry test done by the nurse at the GPs that's why more breathing tests. He had cat scans and x rays that showed mild emphysema but pretty much stated I'm as fit as a butcher's mut 99% oxygen in my blood, he was shocked at how bad and fast my chest infection was that started this, didn't tell him about going over in a hot tub outdoors I was in and out the tub all evening got a right nasty cold few days later.

To make it worse otter fencing is being cut couple of reports on twitter, not surprised by that either but different topic. Anglers are being steered into pollution being the biggest threat that's pollution from farms producing food if the angling groups stick to script they won't get bullied by... see above topic.

Too good to go app, got potential for a cheap selection of various food options, chain hotels, restaurants and cafes, I have a breakfast to pick up at 10am from a hotel in Kenilworth 3 quid be handy when out fishing get some nice big dinners local and cooked for a few quid. Had a lunch buffet yesterday for a fiver from a Chinese portion was massive I'm not a fan of Chinese buffet but if you are you get plenty.

I could get something no doubt the Mrs has Ehlers-Danlos syndrome she was getting DLA before they brought PIP in she only gets the light touch reviews. I'm her carer I did work in adult social care for a good few years in a council hostel including medication dispensing to residents with serious psychological problems gained me whatever the studied NVQ qualification is in social and health care so the DWP have never been onto me either they can get very involved if someone claims carers allowance for looking after a disabled person as can the general public.

It's not too bad if you are happy to make lifestyle changes like doing things at a slower pace you do need to make changes I have nearly collapsed a few times due to lack of oxygen found out today my COPD is caused by emphysema could of been worse. The DWP would probably still find me fit to work, lucky I don't need them as of yet.

Butternut cell, nah rubbish, Used it on a fairly difficult water to good enough success it definitely attracts them in but as mentioned doesn't mean they will pick your hook bait up anymore keenly.

Bit of better news, motor did the MOT with a advisory on a near to the limit tyre I needed new wiper blades as one was split, instead of fitting them before the MOT I left them in the packaging on the passenger seat, makes the inspector less picky going forward the bonus being the bit I put aside for any surprises can be spent elsewhere.
