  1. Back this morning at 4am from 10 days in egypt, coolest day was 36oC hottest was 43oC....soon be on a 4hr round trip drive to pick the pooch up from sister in laws at Thirsk....been up since 5.30am yesterday, screaming baby behind us on plane for 5hrs, no sleep then or even today, back in work at 4.30 in morning.
  2. Was "Given" a Bivvy + Wrap, the fella said he has misplaced the pole for the Bivvy Peak, so thought could use as a Day shelter and Sell the Wrap.... Upon setting up yesterday I found the Pole, told him and he wasn't bothered, so up for sale it went and sold a few hours later.... So that's the Airport money for Wednesday (Holiday to Egypt).
  3. Exactly, I bought around 100kg plus of Bait... 46kg Bio Marine (when was on sale), Pop Uos, Wafter, Glugs, Liquid Food. 30kg Carp Particles - Ultimate 10 Bags of Frozen Corn 1 Sack of Aller Aqua Feed Pellets Thus was all supposed for a Park Lake Campaign which I should be in Now, but ended selling all my Gear (+Bait)
  4. The Sonik SKS 3+1 set, probably without doubt the best selling 1st set/starter alarms to go for. Also cater for all ranges of anglers.
  5. Woooow, going back a while there now, jeez. I had 6 binders and (I think) I collected every issue, I can remember they were heavy when full. Had everything in from Seafishing, were to fish in what weather conditions, what rigs and bait, tactics, tackle...
  6. At the moment, it seems all the people I fished with have sold up and gone there seperate ways, but the 1 person I want/wanted to fish with the most is my Uncle and he is going more than ever now...
  7. Nope, kept everything exactly the same, just lower qty
  8. Tricky Baits No.1 for me. Blue Drum are Aller Aqua 8m for feeding
  9. Mainly manilla but I did have some Sticky Visuals. Manilla Chops, Crumb, Few Wholes, Hemp, Manilla Stik Mix Dust and Manilla Glug/liquid. Did have some Krill for 1 other lake but never panned out... Also Had some Munch Baits Bio Marine for another lake campaign, but that didn't take off either (Sopd all My Gear since)
  10. About 4/5yrs, and i would start straight back with it. The Sturgeon was on a White Manlla wafter about 1 rod length from bank in margin.
  11. I preferred a Friday night about 6pm until about dinner Saturday....every now and then a 36hr.
  12. The only bait i use/did use, got my carp pb from park lake and biggest fish (sturgeon) in another lake.
  13. Sticky Baits - Manilla nothing else really.
  14. I only have/had a 2 rod setup, so was always 1 in either margin and 1 to open water or a feature...both using the same baits though, Sticky Manilla.
  15. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/225959871141?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=qi2bAKUrTke&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=tGv3gu7qR9e&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
  16. Felt like it abit, the amount of sweat pumping 🤣🤣....also done some conditioning training...Jog 20m, Sprint 20m repeat each segment until failure 😩😩😩
  17. Another 5k done this morning, not too bad this running lark 😁😁
  18. It was always there this set, it was/is my lads....something we can use together....but it also needs to catch a fish as he's had it now nearly 18month and nothing caught yet.
  19. Day Session gear (Only)... Got 2x 6ft Rods n reels set, 1 for Alarm 1 for Float fishing, Net (all goes in 2 rod holdall) backpack with bait n terminal in, Chair n Matt....carry all in 1 hand 🤣🤣
  20. Big Carp - Big Baits - Big Boilies
  21. Lads football season finishes next week, but doesn't for me...may get thebodd Sunday for a Day sesh with the 6ft outfit I've (we) have....but that's pushing it so far.
  22. I just did exactly same all year, but in winter, smaller Hooks, Smaller Hookbait and a PVA mesh bag around hook 👍🎣
  23. I've honestly had great faith in anything Sonik...Vader X, RS, Xtractor 👍👍
  24. Time is the main thing now, 100%.....6 days a week i have someting fully taking up the days, only Saturdays were we chill as a family(if we can), 2 mates who i usually went with - 1 has been given some lung n liver bad news, 1 has had 2 heart attacks and told to retire from mwork and rest, main exercise is to walk nothing more, my Uncle seems to be going more n more with his mate now......but....IF...i was to regain all my Gear, it would probably be have to see what the outcome of my work claim will be and possibly spend about 2K on a decent 2nd hand setup.
