Spent the Bank holiday weekend at the lake , not a single bite or buzz and did not use Jungle formula or any other mozzie repellant, bliss Got back to the car and in the time it took to load the car i ended up with SEVEN mozzie bites , figure that out.

As many will have noticed I havnt been fishing in several months now and probably not more than 4 times in the last 18 months , but this Bank holiday I made the effort , and was truly rewarded. Started with a 33lb Mirror then a 14lb Mirror, followed by a 33lb Common then to finish off the Bank holiday a 44lb Common

Try" AccuWeather " its pretty good for you area ,

I thought "No win No fee "was exactly that no win and you pay no fees. But ,if you won then you get all the compensation, ect, and they get all there fees back via the other party and not you. At least that how i thought it worked

Yep you can do that , maybe use a wire trace just incase a Pike has a go.

Just had a PM ,Defiantly not fishing related

I have the Fox XL unhooking matt , i think its now called "Fox Easy Matt" now , its good but only really for fish in the low 20s, IMO I also have a shimano matt with sides ,larger than the my Fox XL ,very similar to the Fox carpmaster deluxe , which is great for Larger fish. The sides dont squash down on the Shimano like the Fox XL does if the fish flips. I have never liked Cradles at least the ones i have seen .

Could anyone suggest a good reasonably priced (£150 -300) Trail Cam . MUST be totally non visible at night , ie No LEDs showing. Cheers

Its a long way off so alot can change , but i would be up for it , shame i wasnt around much ,would have loved the last one .

1 Capacity: 307.2Wh/26Ah @12V/96000mAh @3.2V ............................................................................................................................. 2 Capacity: 96000mAh at 3.2V Battery pack capacity: 12.8V /24000mAh/307.2Wh ...................................................................................................................... These figures are from two different power packs , the figures seem the same but are not , can anyone tell me is this correct or a typo from the manufacturer.

Some years ago now ,the lakes you refer to got a right slagging off by many people who had fished there , it may be different now , Look it up on CarpForum there was lots to read.

Poingdestre's or online

Waiting for some Pike and Perch lures to arrive form Temu.

I have used the Korda Goo Match fishing on the tip and have not seen it make any difference to my catch rate , it also hasnt hindered it either.

Forget a metal detector , the biggest nugget you'll likely to find will only be a gram or so , most of the gold is the size of a pin head as in my picture. Knowing roughly where you are , its unlikely youll have gold in it , but who knows . I believe the gold runs ,Scotland ,Wales ,Cornwall in that line , but im in no way an expert .
