  1. tapered shockleader with 10ib daiwa sensor, never had a crack off. its either dodgy braid or its possibly wrapping round the top eye (or the butt ring tbh) during flight
  2. never had a pick up either though lol
  3. yeh moe of a curve. as said, any time you tie a rig just make sure in the event of a break off the lead will come off the line easily so the fish aint dragging the lead around if hooked. watch a couple of episodes of thinking tackle, ok he aint everyones cup of tea but he shows rig safety and that is the most important thing in carp fishing
  4. and thats from another lake owner, that aint a bad recommendation
  5. yeh, dont think you will be disappointed tbh
  6. http://www.carp.com/carp-forum/viewtopic.php?t=55850&highlight=rushes http://www.carp.com/carp-forum/viewtopic.php?t=53585&highlight=rushes http://www.carp.com/carp-forum/viewtopic.php?t=49480&highlight=rushes http://www.carp.com/carp-forum/viewtopic.php?t=45990&highlight=rushes have a read mate, might be of help
  7. yeh mate, can be tough but quality fish in there
  8. yeh its a bit open if the wind comes in. arlsford is a quality water mate, just a shame we cant night fish there. its good its now open all year though
  9. yeh that can be productive from there mate, if its quiet then the near margins from them swims can pay off, problem is if its busy then they can shut up shop. watch the surface that end as they often come up to the surface there if its nice and sunny
  10. tbh i always found the margins worked for me, dont ignore the near ones either although that depends on what end of the lake your on and how busy it is. have you joined paxmans facebook page? you have to be a member to join it but might help a bit as well
  11. ita a water you need to get close to the far margins and/or weed. tbh i find single hookbaits of a good quality boilie work well, as does the surface, dog biccy's work really well in there if the weather is right. i would head up to the far end from the car park if i were you, problem is the weed can be a problem that end this time of the year
  12. a flick of the tail, dave lane, proper good book with some very funny bits in it
  13. made me laugh as well mate, great pic
  14. go for it mate. be good to have some more and different input
  15. awesome bird mate. used to fly her in the woods near me, somehow i got permission off the council to fly her in the woods lol. a farmer let me fly her on his land as well, as long as there were no lambs about in case she decided to have one for dinner lol Close relative of Harry Potter, then. Hedwig, by any chance? Ian now wheres that two finger smilie
  16. i must agree, it is an lovely place. well done mate

  18. i had a snake many years ago, spiders scare the life out of me lol. had a european eagle owl but tbh where i live it was just to noisy, will have another if and when i move into the country a bit more
  19. mate, i love staffs, i have had a couple of proper staffs but there is so much bad publicity now with soooooooo many cross breeds out there that i dont know if i could put up with the dangerous dog rubbish tbh. proper quality dogs
  20. i have 3 cats (del, stay out of this ) and 13 chickens. i had to have my loyal little dog put to sleep just before christmas after 16 years. was so so gutted. in the future i might get a labrador pup but not sure yet
