    Sky lies at the top of the stairs up to my flat while I take all the gear down and load the car, and is ready to get straight in while I do my last minute lock up checks.

    Well, I think that's the Day session gear sorted (unless I want a sling and some scales)
    Got some pegs from Halfords, Half Litre Fabsil.
    Spooled up the Float Rod, Washed and dried the Bivvy then gave a coat of Fabsil.
    Sorted the 1 Rod Carp Setup.
    Like this weekend I've been bored out my tree, SO...... got the gear to go this morning......NO LICENCE, couldn't be bothered fanny about so sorted all out so no dramas for next time.

    I wish I had taken a photo now, just to prove you can catch without getting a spirit level out šŸ˜‚
    Funny thing happened, I've got my kit down to a minimum for these places and short sessions now, just a mat, with tackle box in, a bucket and my rod bag for my 9fters. I saw a bloke packing his car as I was walking back. I chucked my bits in the car, went to the toilet, washed my hands and he still had all of his stuff and his barrow(tri Porter big boy) in a big heap, he looked perplexed, he had literally everything with him and I'm guessing it all had to be loaded in a certain order, I felt proud of myself as I drove off with my minimal kit, my wife had made a nice curry,and I'd probably eaten that before he had driven out the gate šŸ˜‚

    I went to the little shop and bought some expanding pellets and a couple of these little bad boys,Ā 
    After being inspired by BB, I felt when I can find them cruising in the channels I can plop one of these in front of them and it might be deadly and let's be honest who the hell does that kind of thing on a syndicate lake šŸ˜

    Finally decided to start my river campaign only about 2yrs late! First night last night, one small carp seen cruising along the far reeds, another bigger fish breached and rolled mid channel and I got a few bream and a nice tench from under the bush to the top right of the shot. I spodded 3kg of hemp and 2kg of pellet just upstream and fished a 7 bait stringer over the top with about 50-60 boilies pulted around it. That was the middle rod sorted, the left hand was fished tight to the far reeds in 5ft of water with just a stringer attached. Right rod fished tight to the near margin on a 4ft shelf as a single, with a few broken boilies and a handful of 1mm & 2mm pellets over it. I was worried Iā€™d over done the baiting/spodding on the middle rod, but it was the only one to have any liners or do any bites. Gonna be a challenge this venue, miles upon miles of wild water, an unknown stock of carp (a few come out along this stretch) plus limited and restricted stretches you can night fish stack the odds against me. I can only go to certain places, the carp can go anywhere they like! šŸ™„

    First week back after spawning, new swim another blank, loads of liners as the fish moved accross the huge marginal plateau but the swans make it tricky to fish.
    Saturday morning they closed the bottom end of the lake as they were spawning again.

    First trip out using the chair, seems pretty light but obvs not as light as my other.
    Pack down it's wide so takes up room in the car but fitted on the barrow behind the bed.Ā  Bars cross over when packed down would be better if all these chairs folded flatter and smaller.
    Comfy in use on the bed, you dont feel the bar underneath which was my initial concern, also comfy on the bank using the lowest back bar for a low rider style option or thicker one for more upright.
    Nice having back adjustment, pretty happy with it tbh.
