  1. Thanks, i will look out for it, i enjoyed in pursuit
  2. i used to live in pompey and never got to fish yately, by time i had got old enough for a car i got interested in girls and sort of forgot about fishing, i wish i had done some time on yately and now i live to far away
  3. It should be quiet down there, you might do well going this time of year, st johns gives you the chance of the biggest, brasenose the chance of the most runs
  4. have a look at broadlands website, i did a week on it a few years back and really enjoyed it
  5. how about broadlands near southampton, lovely lake
  6. what is the knot to be used for?
  7. not fished it for a few years now, not to busy during week, try for carp alley if you go
  8. "2-3inches of braid" think the op said no braid
  9. I have to say orchid is a superb lake, its not a runs water but the fish are worth catching if your prepared to put in the effort, good luck with which ever lake you choose
  10. try fishing with an inline lead and a really long rig, say about 18 inches the lead will pull into the silt but hook bait will sit on top if you use a nugget of foam on the hook
  11. is there really any need to use the chod? just asking
  12. looks pretty good, agree about the bivvy
  13. Hi all, can any one recommend a day ticket lake to bivvy up for a couple of days around stroud as my daughter wants to go visiting a friend and i said i would drive her down if i can find a lake to stop at! dont want horse shoe just a nice quiet little place with the chance of a few nice carp thanks in advance
  14. welcome, try broadlands just of M27 near romsey
  15. go to bluebell, fish main lake with a snowman bait/rig, safer at bluebell and good chance if you get a run it will be a decent fish, there you go job done !
  16. proper fishing mate well pleased for you, as you work hard at your carpin, and just goes to prove what a good water that is, get some fishy pics on mate in june catch reports
  17. im sure graham at sapphire would allow this, but might be worth looking for a local club then just pay yearly membership
  18. try doing a search on here for chod rigs, there is hundreds of threads
  19. if you scroll through this thread you will see the rig marole leader i use, i put shrink tube at the points i want the beads as leader is very thin http://www.carp.com/carp-forum/viewtopic.php?t=44395&highlight=

    Chod rig

    Do you need to use a chod rig? what type of lake bed will you be fishing over? If you find your self using leadcore, google terry hearns video on you tube or on esp website! if you go for the much safer option of using a synthetic leader you can use a piece of shrink tube where the bead sits, then slide bead onto shrink tube so that it will still pull free, but best advice would be to rethink your rig and go with a SAFE rig
  21. Think you will find esp hooks pretty strong, maybe the kamasin ones are a bit thinner
  22. yep, marsh runs a good set up down there, i did easter weekend
  23. try to get on the high number pegs 8-12 dont be put of by the rail way line, the trains are very considerate! some nice fish in there and lots of small to medium cats, if you fish any fish based bait you will more than likely get a cat! the breakfast is a belter for a fiver, good luck
  24. please stay away from leadcore, the very fact that a huge amount of lake owners have banned it from their waters tells a tale in itself try tungsten tubing or synthetic leaders
  25. Linear prefer credit or debit card payment: they already have the facility to take bookings, by using this method they would never have anglers turning up and not able to get on. I was told we would be able to get on, we made a 170 mile journey to find clearly we could not get on. As for other fisheries being as busy, we decided to make a call to marsh pratley on orchid, he was very helpful, told us just how it was at his lakes and got us on a couple of pegs next to each other. like i said, i wont be going back, and i wont be driving silly miles again to get on "premier" carp waters, will stick in the yorkshire area
