    Somewhere, no idea where, I have the entire set. I can't claim to have collected them myself, they were a gift from a pal who was moving house and downsizing. Wonder where I put them............. Ian.

    Go onto Ebay and look at item number 334778194103. There's a guy selling original format Vitalin in various sized bags, to suit your needs. Hope this helps. Ian.

    You're welcome. Ian.

    The company is run by a guy called Kenny Gates. The business is based at Malgraves Industrial Estate, Lower Dunton Road, Bulphan, Essex RM14 3TE. I can't find a phone number and he's not on Facebook. However, there are a few clips on YouTube which you may find useful. Just type in Asylum Baits. Hope this helps, mate. Ian.

    I've deleted and banned a couple myself, Nick. Ian

    Over the years I've fished several venues in France and every one I've fished has allowed the use of baitboats. Indeed, several of them have boats for hire. Ian.

    I too tend to find larger venues a bit intimidating, it's like fishing an ocean! I agree with all that Framey says, particularly the part about breaking a large lake into a series of smaller ones, psychologically. I try to remember to never overlook the margin, it's the one feature that every water has and is frequently ignored. I remember being told that three things will find fish. Observation, observation and observation. Ian.

    I've just had a look on Facebook Marketplace and found several carp barrows available. A Carp Porter Mk11 Wideboy in as new condition, complete with the uderslung carrier thingy, for £150 was among them. If I didn't already own one I'd be on my way to buy it. Ian.

    The smile says it all and confirms that effort equals result. Fair play to the gentleman.

    They list sizes up to 8XL. Dominant enough, or what? Ian.

    The eyebrow shaving was an experiment, not to be repeated. I looked very clean but permanently astonished. Oh, and no, I didn't pencil them back on. I grew them back in a fetching shade of grey. Greyness being to cause of the experiment........... Ian.

    Agree. It's good to see that someone's bold enough to be different. Wonder if they'd bring out my feminine side? Ian.
  13. welder
    Well, I'm spoiled for choice. I'll spend some time on YouTube and Ebay to see what suits best for me. Thanks for all the suggestions. Ian.

    Is there such a thing as a one man bivvy that's tall enough to stand up in? I've just got a syndicate ticket on a local water and the JRC 2-man XXL 2G Monster Thingy I usually use won't fit into several of the swims. I've grown used to the comfort and convenience of a tall bivvy but need a relatively small footprint. I'd be very grateful for any suggestions. Ian.
  15. welder
    You have an overwrap, the seriously extended sort. Ian.
  16. welder
    Just let me know please, Leon. I shall look forward to comparing the aches and ailments of maturity with Elmo. Oh, and a bit of fishing. Ian.
  17. welder
    Still got it, along with the extension piece for the groundsheet. Both are like brand new and are never used since I bought a bigger bivvy. Speak to me. Ian.
  18. welder
    Ashmire looks great to me. Who do I pay? I'd be up for 3 nights, too. Ian.

    September is good for me. Horseshoe is good for me, as would be Merrington. Ian.
  20. welder
    I'll see you there, Andy. Ian.
  21. welder
    Yes please, Leon. Put me and my son Alan on the list. Not too fussed where or when. We're both self-employed so a few weeks notice of date would be useful. Ian.
  22. welder
    I've messaged Andy, asked him to look in on here with any advice he can offer. I've done Horseshoe several times and it's a bit special! I've mentioned all this to my son Alan and he's well up for it. oh, and your proposed dates would be fine with both of us. Ian.
  23. welder
    That was Andy Wilkinson aka Andy52. He and I are friends on Facebook. Would you like me to drop him a message to see if he's still a bailiff at Horseshoe? Ian.
  24. welder
    Yes please. I've done loads of them over the years and can honestly say I've enjoyed every one. I'll have a word with Stevo and see if he's up for it. Ian.
  25. welder
    I'll show Ali's clip to my son. He always uses dips and glugs of some sort. He'll definitely be up for trying something new. I'll probably have a go at it myself tbh Ian.
