Well in lads

If you live local to Leighton, the best advice i can give you is to pre-bait on a regular basis. You don't have to put loads in, just do it little & often. Other than that, keep off the boards

Please stop useing text talk. The older members can't read it

Thermals? You wuss We'll have to have a mini social there

There are some stunners in there Hmmm, Winter will be here soon. I feel the urge again

If at first you don't succeed, give up? I'm glad that i didn't give up quite so easily. It's been a few years since i've been a regular there, but Leighton was the first pool to captivate me when i was learning the basics of carping. My first 5 sessions all resulted in a blank, but it didn't matter, it's a beautiful little water & i loved just being there. I've since gone on to bank most of the residents there & i've never seen a deformed mouth. I didn't catch anything below 12lbs either, perhaps i was just lucky. Leighton isn't an easy water, but it's not rock hard either, if you're up to the challenge.

You only had 5 from the runs water? They virtually jump in your net there The speci lake never used to be weedy, though it's been a long time since i've been there. You fancy a little competition next week Guy? You know i don't compete against friends. Besides, on our last two visits to Pool Hall, i beat you

I can see the thumbprint from here

I can only imagine that it's the same as it used to be. Naff

If you walk down the stone steps onto the wooden walkway, the peg to your left is peg one. If you go to the other end of the walkway, that's peg 9. I'm sure you can work out the others

Which fishery was it? If you can travel 20 minutes or so, Top Barn Fishery has a nice pool & it's £5 per day.

I use a loop knot. Any type of stiff link needs some movement.

It's here http://www.poolhallfisheries.com/

It could be a raffle prize. Put me down for a tenners worth of tickets.

from one who knows about such things mate...you wouldnt Sorry Del, i disagree. 2 grand for a week? I'd rather cut off one of Andys' nuts off too.

This may be of some help http://www.fisheries.co.uk/midlandsindex.htm

That's all the reason i need to go there I knew that. I've told them to expect you. They've ordered in extra everything.. Expect bonus black pudding.....possibly. Ian Ian, it amazes me that you're still such a nice & thoughtfull bloke despite your many, many, many years spent on this hostile world

That's all the reason i need to go there

Pool Hall runs water. It's a nice looking lake with enough fish in there to make your arm ache after a few hours http://www.poolhallfisheries.com/
