dayvid

Its understanding , not to have it in an enclosed space ,

I like to find out as much information on a venue as I can . Its handy to find out rough depths , bottom ,ect 
But I am not interested in other peoples Bait ,rigs and where they think the fish are or I should be fishing , I can do that myself .
 

Nice one dayvid, being delivered 10th June 👍👍👍

Here you go .£16

A bait boat with GPS and echo sounder ,would suite this venue perfectly , costly I know , but im sure would pay dividends in time getting to know the lake .

Life jackets , this is just a personal opinion , but I dont really like the Auto inflate lifejackets , but prefer the conventional ones , 
You always know if you fall in , using a conventional life jacket you will always float , 
Auto inflate , theirs always an element of " will it inflate when I need it "  Just my opinion 
One other thing if you buy an Auto inflate , Always wear it on the outside of your cloths  , Never under a coat

Full Moon , I really dont like fishing  a full moon, but that doesnt stop me  , whether its sociological or not I seem to catch less .

Thanks very much for the heads up , Yonny , but I can't get out until Mon. night / Tues . day .
Any chance of you " aving a word " , and delaying / extending  the feed - up ? .
😁

I thought this may be of interest to some members, I could not see anything mentioned in earlier in earlier posts
 

Quite ironic really , its not a problem to fish for Pregnant fish, fat footballs ,rolled around on a mat then weighed and photographed for a PB , but as soon as they spawn its a no no , your spawn of Satin if you do whilst spawning.
Doesnt seem to apply to France,even the owners wont close and refund you , when you spend hundreds of pounds for a holiday , the times I have read , The fish were spawning the time we were their only caught a few . they never packed up and came home .
Spawning fish dont eat whilst they are doing it ,but are hungry afterwards .

Thats the thing do we give up , I wont 😀
To be fair I based pregnancy as a general term, near to spawning  , as yes the start to produce unfertilised eggs , not sure from when though, when I mentioned Pregnant fish I was more leaning to the spring when full of eggs, and in most cases very obvious .
How many times again have we heard , " came out at X amount last time ,down on weight now she's spawned " or words on a similar vein.

If I didnt have three nets , I would definitely go for a 2 piece pole.

Some if the highlights of my recent session 
 

the not an upper double 20lb 2oz 

 
this was no 10 looking at that paddle I am not surprised it went like a train 

Preview of Jonny 5 all 20lb 2oz of him those 2 ounces have got rid of a big old weight around my neck I was starting to think I could only catch mid to high doubles 😩

This one was no 4 another common about 15lb 
I actually got the camera set up for no5 📸

Considering I've tripped on them, kicked them I think they are pretty straight today 😁
Im now having my first cuppa been a slow tea day so far 🍵

Still in carnage mode 😁

It's been a funny old start im a  bit slow today things are being silly, but cast my second rod over the spodded area, whilst still setting the bobbins it ripped off, knarly old common 16lb so I've had one and I still haven't had breakfast 😁

Just for info , 
6L equals about 1 Kg.... Mealworms dry

Went out round some club lakes this morning... took the two photos while walking round the waters.... those two were taken next to an "out of bounds" section of one of them... all the fish were sitting up there while 20 odd blokes were lashing the water with every method under the sun...

Mid 40 common in the middle here.
