I'm lazy and I tend to have ready tied rigs (not shop bought) in a rig bin or wallet, but complete with Hairs attached. Since I tend to fish the same waters for a season or so I know how long I need the hair to be, and check the length of the hair with bait on when I tie them anyway. If I do need to change the hair length, then I use a length of 4lb Maxima as the hair (also the method I use for tying on pop-ups to a ring as well). I find it easier to shorten a hair by tying an overhand loop than extending the hair. You could tie a hook on with a knotless knot, but leave the hair loop untied so all you need to do is tie the loop in when you fish. That should give you the possibility to change the hair length Seymo made a little loop tyer. It was a round central piece about the size of a 5p piece with at either side 2 prongs that you used to form the loop. Google "Seymo loop tyer" and you will see what I mean

I know what Tony is saying, and yes at times he can be harsh, as I can. Brasenose 1 has been put out as an easy water in some of the articles I've read, but as Tony and Hopefull have said is DON'T go with pre-conceived ideas about how to fish a venue. You DO still need to put effort in to find the fish. Too many people go to a water having read the latest Catch Report or Magazine article on a place and think that is THE way to fish the venue, sorry, it only worked at that time for that article. Same as your local water, how you fish it each time should be different according to the conditions and finding the fish. Now I know from reading past Threads on Brasenose 1 that it has not always had the best reports, and there are often a number of blanks, as well as some good catches.

Finally worked out where I had seen the original idea that I had been working on, although I think that my idea is slightly different to the current latest wonder rig in the mags.

You've previously asked the same question in another thread. I moved the post into New to Carp.com: http://www.carp.com/carp-forum/viewtopic.php?t=37683 I gave you a link to some Leicester waters on that and recommended the search facility as I know that the same question has been covered in the past.

If I'm using Silicon Tubing for the Line aligner then I cut it to size and shape and then put it on the hooklink material with a needle to pull the hooklink through the Line aligner hole I've made. Then I tie the hook and slide the tubing down

It would be nice to see a photo. I doubt you will. His post is over 3 years old Why start a new thread when there is one you know that covers the topic?

No worries, I just mentioned it as I find it easy to tie, or rather it is the Knot I know how to tie and have no problems with

Just been mooching through the forum. Looked at this water being as I work in Ilford, handy for overnighters and then go into work. How safe is it for Night Fishing? What are current conditions of the site, clean tidy or a bomb site etc? Also what are current facilities? Is it able to be visited to have a look around or is that out the question? Sailing Lake looks like a venue and a half

What is the knot that Kryston show in their packing for loop knots? Whatever it is, I use that one if I ever need a loop

Anything in here under Cheshire or Lancashire to suit: http://www.carp.com/carp-forum/viewtopic.php?t=27977 Phone numbers for many venues. Then just search them see if they are on the forum, may be easier than having to wait for an answer that may or not be forthcoming

As far as I'm aware there is NO NIGHT FISHING on them. But since you are a member of Kings Lynn and District, they will be able to tell you via phone call or a tackle shop that sells their tickets

Cos I looked it up the other day about a couple of waters, try this thread: http://www.carp.com/carp-forum/viewtopic.php?t=37283 In the quote on that thread somewhere is a phone n umber

I have had a look through the forum, and any threads that have been started asking for information on any of the Walthamstow complex, Upper/Lower Maynard etc are all left alone or with minimal posts. In other words you are going to have to do the Hard Work yourself actually on the venues and making friends on the Reservoirs themselves

Hi Mate and Welcome to the forum. Probably the only way to find out is to fish it yourself. Do as much research as you can, find out as much about the location of fish, look for them as much as you possibly can, and then you decide. River Fishing is to me, a lot more rewarding at times than sitting out on a Lake. The Great Ouse System may well contain some absolute lunkers. Many of the other Fen Drains do and many of them connect somewhere with the Great Ouse

The same as I use on a Lake

In his post header profile it says Dagenham Not being funny, but I would be very wary of being alone on some of the waters in that area, especially since I know a few of them inside the M25 and Dagenham area. ' ' I also know that if you type Essex Waters into the search facility and specify the UK Where to fish you have anumber of threads come up from London, all the way up to Colchester. This is from the UK Where to fish by Counties sticky:

For Suffolk, Take your pick out of this little lot. It is not complete, but gives a fair few waters to have a look at: Originally posted in May 2008, now reposted and brought to the top of the section.

Is that this place that has already been mentioned on this forum? http://www.carp.com/carp-forum/viewtopic.php?t=35031&highlight=fairview Just by posting on a subject you bring it back to the top of the section

Bechers Brook, a jump on the Grand National Racecourse

Believe it or not, there are 4 threads about Boddington Reservoir, you started 2 of them, and none of them in the past have been posted on, all from a long way back. It may help if you give a county or nearby town as that may give clues as to its location. Normally I would say post on 1 to bring it back to the top, but it looks like it is a pretty much "Unfished for Carp" venue. I have moved this in Where to Fish section

Flipping Heck! I just googled Belvide Reservoir, and it looks like a challenge to fish as it is an SSSI. A permit required just to VISIT it.

Last thread I remember about Belvide was this one, from the start of the year: http://www.carp.com/carp-forum/viewtopic.php?t=31596

I know where it went; It was removed as there are already a number of threads on UK Carping Holidays in existance! http://www.carp.com/carp-forum/viewtopic.php?t=36196&highlight=holiday http://www.carp.com/carp-forum/viewtopic.php?t=35779&highlight=holiday http://www.carp.com/carp-forum/viewtopic.php?t=35707&highlight=holiday (may be a familiar thread as well ) http://www.carp.com/carp-forum/viewtopic.php?t=30615&highlight=holiday http://www.carp.com/carp-forum/viewtopic.php?t=27575&highlight=holiday http://www.carp.com/carp-forum/viewtopic.php?t=25192&highlight=holiday Also it was posted in the wrong section of the forum

I've not got much on Syndicate waters down in that area, maybe a couple of Club and Day Ticket waters I wonder if someone is including a Membership only water as a Syndicate? Don't know if these are any use:
