Well it seems to be working, the steady flow of spammers seems to have dried up for now
-
Never got to fish horseshoe and wont now, but i was sort of on track to fish yately, this would of been around the time Terry and the yately crew were just getting started on the complex, but had a massive fall out with local club (portsmouth and district) that made me fall out with angling and coincided with getting a 1st car and err.........realising the fun that could be had with the opposite sex
-
I also bought a new reel to use with the Sonik 13ft rod an Advanta 4000 size front drag, having my doubts about it, seems really well made but i have 8lb on one spool and 5lb on second and both spools are dropping coils of line time and time over
-
a friend glugs his boilies in condensed milk and seems to do well on this, i think he has stopped and his catch rate has dropped of
-
no i bought it as is, no longer have it as due to divorce some time ago i ended up having to sell it on
-
And my old GS1000HC this was my last bike, had 1100 big bore kit yoshi cams harris 4 into 1 full race pipe

Today i got a Sonik 13ft power float road with a 1.5lb tc rating, i have not owned a nice float rod for a long time, have to say its a lovely rod, well made and does indeed have a lot of backbone for larger fish, very pleased with it also it was a good price £40 new delivered
-
Here is a better bait idea and less risky, less grisly take a kilo of dried hemp seed soak for 24 hours in a large tub of COLD water, bring to boil for about 5 minutes and spod out on fishing spot, the hemp releases natural oils and feeding stimulates to draw carp into location
-
kind of fishing, i spotted a 60,000ma powerbank on fleabay for little money £16.79 posted and thought, lets try it, good for camping trips and fishing trips to charge mobile and vape also has a light on it
-
Okay guys other than pellets what bait can i use in pellet bands, these are the hook to nylon with a hair ending in small latex band just putting this out there for idea`s using a power float rod for carp to mid doubles
-
Something needs to be put in place, the spam is getting pretty bad
-
back up and working, and a spammer banned lol
-
I have a fleet of models, but these are mainly 1/10th rc rock crawlers here is my most recent one an FTX Trooper based on a toyota LC71, i have added lots of scale parts, great fun to drive
-
I cant remember last time i dropped a lead but i fish inline or running lead set up safe because the lead will dump in event of a snap of, but TBH the venue i most fish has no weed or snaggs and the carp only run to max 18-19lb
-
Quick update on the big brolly, for the price its bloomin ace, goes up in a minute and plenty large enough for me and Mrs H to shelter under and mad bargain price
-
Not a lot lately for me, but i did get another 2 kilo of NFusion 12mm dairy nut boilies, cheap but i get on well with these and very similar to my 15mm corus Nut cluster, also i scooped a Michigan 88" brolly with side panels to use as a wind break when me and Mrs H go for a day session, dropped a cheeky bid on it before going fishing sunday as it was ending soon winning bid £12.50, this is new end of line, will see what its like next time on the bank
-
Had a good half day down at Brookfoot lakes Aireys pond today 2 Bream then 3 carp 2 were commons around the 10lb and the nice mirror was a tad over 12lb, i took brew making gear for me and mrs to have a decent brew and my trusty ancient Webtex stove was leaking gas big time stripped it when we got home and now ordered a set of seals so it will give me another 15 years lol
-
Nice Fish Nick, well in mate, by eck we are both looking old these days
-
My 1st thought would be to use floater dog biscuits and avoid the deep snaggy lake
-
Sounds like you have done the right thing, enjoy some nice angling with your lads, it will be quality time spent, i only fish the local club these days, got a few mates on the ponds and usually i really enjoy the sessions, main lake has some good fish but i tend to fish the smaller pond and some lovely fish to about 18lb, good enough for an old codger like me
-
seems each time i log on the most recent spammers have been dealt with, sadly at times forums just get hit with this rubbish
-
Went to local lake yesterday just for afternoon managed one carp just an 8lb 40z, lovely scaly mirror, jesus i really am looking like an "old codger" these days
-
I dont tend to lose gear, though many years ago i left a cheap little unhooking mat at the lake, TBH it was no great loss, only gear i tend to find is little weights and the like
-
That is same as the club book i fish, but night fishing is allowed however its a long wait to get night book and its an extra £140 for night book, lucky for me i dont really do nights no more and if i want to do 24h i can gust on for £20, yes fishing is getting expensive
