Live bait like a small roach or similar sorts the big ones, and they can suck in a surprisingly large live bait, but it goes against the grain for me, i work on catch and release not catch and impale on even bigger hook, some might think it wrong to put a lob on hook (wife does) but i dont have a problem drowning worms

it fell to a good old fashioned lobworm fished on stick float set up at the time i had (and foolishly sold) a TFG Matt Hayes X1 river and stream 1lb avon rod and the big perch put a right bend in that classic rod

Yes Perch are a lovely fish, always thought if they grew to 25lb no one would fish for carp lol, im lucky enough to of caught a 4 1/4 lb perch, hell of a fish

Its hard to think, and makes me feel rather old that i used to fish this little river maybe 46 years ago but more to the point i used to err "poach" in the old stew pond this river flows through to catch eel, roach rudd and more important proper old wild carp and of course lots of Perch, those were happy days indeed

I used to use ESP Crystal but just cant get it now, shame, i tried a couple of lines and ended up using budget NGT camo line having done a few pull to break tests using digital latching scales it does seem to hold up to stated BS and is thinner in diameter than a lot of lines, can get bulk spools for about £9 posted, im now happy with this product

Here is my latest purchase i scored this haul of 9 in number vintage strikeright centrepin reels all in original box`s some have paperwork in box 7 of them look as new the other 2 are in nice used condition, i cant say what i payed for this job lot but it was a very keen price indeed but i wont be keeping them as i do see a rather nice profit from them that will help offset some of the money i have spent this last few months

Welcome aboard and great avatar JW was a true legend

Glad you posted these, i was going to put some on, cant beat a good Terry tale about his amazing captures and campaigns

So the Carp at the lake im fishing are just not playing ball, oxygen levels are low in all 3 lakes, so for a while im gonna dabble on the canal, we are lucky to have a private peg only accessible from the main lake complex so its on opposite side to towpath, seems Perch can go to over 3lb, also carp in canal so gonna put a hair rig boilie out for Carp and then float fish for Perch
-
Ha ha your getting these as well, i quite like them
-
the gopro or action camera can send live video using a transmitter called a VTX from RC FPV so live view real time to a small colour monitor. Im tempted to get one of the super cheap bait boats and fit a clear panel in the hull to mount live view action cam to

NGT centrepin reel arrived today paid £29 new and have to say it is sweet, spins for ages and silky smooth, loaded it up with 10lb Sensor clear mono will be used for carp in small pond and on canal
-
You could do a set of 3 for about £100 but you would be buying each reel separate on ebay also you need to make sure bail arm is healthy and working as it should, but they are easy to service and spares are still about, of course it was the 300 that Richard Walker caught the 44lb record carp
