  1. The reviews are all good, Phil. Carp to 49lbs, apparently. Enjoy! Ian.
  2. You need to speak to a Guy called Bernard Brown who lives on Edward Road, White City, Water Orton. Not sure of the house number and don't have a phone number for him, sorry. Beaver Pool is now a syndicate water with strictly no night fishing. I'm told that there's a waiting list for membership. Ian.
  3. Looks like a young rainbow trout. Nice. Ian.
  4. I've read everything available and assume that some stuff has been deleted. Always a shame to lose any member, let alone one with obvious enthusiasm. Alan and I are fine, mate. Mad busy with the wrought ironwork and disappointed that our trip to Lac du Menhir in July isn't going to happen Stay safe. Ian.
  5. I've just had a Google look at the venue. It's a series of reservoirs which are pretty much exposed to the elements and look rather daunting to me. I'd suggest that you find a smaller, more intimate, water to fish whilst you're establishing a learning curve. Good luck. Ian.
  6. Only just encountered this thread and know absolutely nothing about it. I must pay more attention! Ian.
  7. Another almost forgotten trick is to fill the air-space beneath your bedchair to prevent a cold aura from the ground. Anything not immediately required will do. Bivvy bag, luggage, holdall etc. It works, trust me. Ian.
  8. My nephew runs a fleet of 5 of these for his building/roofing business. He describes them as reliable workhorses as long as serviced regularly. He, my son and myself went to Windmill Lakes, France in one of them last summer. No problems whatsoever. I was impressed how fuel efficient it was. Ian.
  9. Gardner Micro Grubs. The business, don't look elsewhere. Ian.
  10. Night fishing is fine. No membership required, just your EA license. Google Anchor Meadow Fishery to find their website. Ian.
  11. Joel, welcome amongst us. You might want to take a look at Anchor Meadow on the River Avon. Harvington, near Evesham. WR11 8PA. It's a cracking place to be, trust me. Ian.
  12. Great picture, even better sense of humour. Ian.
  13. I enjoyed that. Thanks GP. Ian.
  14. I can't believe that any significant weight would be saved but I'm liking the notion of a much firmer bedchair. I feel a few experiments coming on. First will be to insert several cable ties in amongst the existing elastic. Ian.
  15. The pool in Fox Hollies park used to be good for roach and tench. I haven't fished there in decades so can't help further. The Grand Union is almost certainly a better bet for carp. Oh, nearly forgot. Welcome to the forum, Alex. Ian.
  16. I've had to cancel a week at Lac du Menhir with my son and nephew, supposed to on there 19th July. Fortunately the owner will honour or booking as a transfer to next year, same deposit. Ian.
  17. It would seem so. Hey ho, we're back at it! Ian.
  18. Are you guys using phones to access the forum? I'm on a PC and have had full access but there has been no traffic at all. It was all a bit odd...………. Ian.
  19. That's exactly what I did when I sent a set of three rods to a pal of mine. The tubes were what the carpet grip bars are sent in and the shop owner was glad to be rid of them. When I'd secured each rod in it's own tube I taped all three tubes together to be sure they all travelled as a "unit". As there's a UPS depot just round the corner from my business unit I dropped the package to them. They were delivered almost exactly 24 hours later. Ian.
  20. There's no problem with this post as it's only about sales elsewhere. I agree that UPS are probably the best to use in this case. Ian.
  21. Will do. Oh, them Wuke caps are available from Amazon. Ian
