    That's how it's starts, just a couple of new rods, then reels, then bivvy, bed, luggage, bite alarms, then you start going for non essential stuff like boats, bushwhackers, more luggage to put new bits in, more terminal tackle than you know what to do with then you find you don't use it all, sell some bits to buy more stuff you don't really need 😂 I've had a few bouts of just wanting to buy stuff lately. I've managed to stop myself so far, but for how long..........

    Hoping to add some more content to the pages again, there us a big BUT......

    Will be a PVA bag.....so this time of year we're would be best to put it ? Open water, round an island, margin....

    Really thinking about being out tomorrow now, came home from work at 9.30....and I NEVER do that...

    Feel like I've been smashed with a Bulldozer, Raw Throat and No Energy. 

    Wife as away from 1pm today and back Tuesday morning, it's the prime time to go, but I just have no energy for it 😔😔

    I'd be starting my search here... constant food source for them..... but with one day and one rod to play with I'd not even be tackling up until I'd seen a sign of carp.

    That's what I was actually thinking, people are forever feeding the ducksbwith Bread in this area, last time I fished a Nas White coconut wafter and caught, I should be there for 1st light, all gear is practically ready.....PVA Bags mainly filled with crumb boilie, groundbait, Manilla Active Mix and few pellets, all need to is to inject with manilla food liquid.

    Wherever you find the carp mate !!

    True, goes without say....Carp in this/these lakes are not known for making shows.

    I've caught from the lake on the Left from the Red Dot (Boat Ramp) & Red Line (Bird/Duck Feeding Area)....I've fished the Bowl Bank (Green Line).

    The lake on the Right I've only fished once, has fewer fish but has the bigger fish and 1 of the fish is on my to catch list (Below) "Half Lin"

    Yes Mate. I put the hook through the corner of the bag and drop the lead in the opposite corner, then fill with pellet mix. I then tease the lead up so it's at the top of the bag, then lick and stick the bag shut. 

     

    I'll be setting up like this, but 1 rig will be a standard hair rig, but with a bait screw instead.

    I have just loaded my reels with NGT 15lb camo mono line, it looks nice and has a low diameter (my old line i took of was about 17 years old oops but had not been used in all that time) i was a little concerned with thin diameter so cut a 2ft length and put a loop not each end, hooked one end to door handle and other on digital scales pulled for a break and it snapped at 12.5lb, the old ESP Crystal 12lb snapped at 5.5lb

    Started off with this NGT line...didn't last long though....I actually started off with a FULL NGT Carp Outfit and quickly started to Upgrade some Gear after that....

    I went through alot of lines starting off and now seem to go towards the Sonik Lines....mainly the Camo or Invisicam.....got the 15lb Camo on my 5000 Reels.

    At moment I've got the Profiler NGT 6ft Rods x2 paired with the Prfiler Reel, NGT Rod Holdall, NGT Ruck Sack and Both are Top Quality (NGT luggage is up there with the Best)
