  1. The clue was Carp Craze.........
  2. Daiwa sensor green? I thought it was brown or clear?
  3. It won't slowly sink, it'll stay popped up at 12 inches
  4. Christ on a bike. I'd forgot what an arrogant, flippant, know it all he was
  5. Nige, what's the advantage to having the bait spin independently of the rig? For the life of me I can't think of one
  6. I've recently started to crimp mine & I'm happy with the results.
  7. The stuff from Avid is called Pin Down. I've got a spool to trial, looks good so far.
  8. It doesn't! The braid I use for my hook length is normally used for mainline. Now it makes sense Though I wouldn't use a mainlind braid for hook lengths. It's usually much a thinner diameter, which can cut into the carp's mouth.
  9. Why is your hook length going through the rod eyes?
  10. The albright knot. http://www.animatedknots.com/albright/index.php?Categ=fishing&LogoImage=LogoGrog.jpg&Website=www.animatedknots.com
  11. Blimey, sounds worse than Chi. Did you ever go back? No never went back, their welcome to it and all the stolen fish in there Paki Bobs' by any chance?
  12. Neither can i. Had a quick look online but no joy.
  13. I agree. It'll be my 2nd home next year
  14. Good memory. It opened my eyes too. Sadly many fisheries have restrictions on hook size.

    Rigs

    Whats a chod rig? Some new fangled thing that doesn't catch fish.

    Rigs

    I was going to say that i've always tied my own rigs, then realised it's only in the last few months that i've stopped using shop bought chod rigs.
  17. You could do a lot worse than Himley Hall. It's close, cheap & some good fish in there. Days only though.
  18. What's the lake bed made up of? Clay, silt, weed, gravel etc. More often than not simple variations on the knotless knot (rig length, hair length etc) will do the job. (http://www.carp.com/carp-forum/viewtopic.php?t=54131)
  19. Hello & welcome to the forum. Blakemere fits the bill http://www.blakemere-leisure.co.uk/
  20. Someone looking for double figure carp, may not be ready for Cromwell.
