  1. imho, NO. i have caught a carp that was trailing 3 feet of leadcore on an inline set up with a 3oz inline tight on the splice. as i have already said mate, heli ONLY if you really feel the need for leadcore, tbh why do you feel you need to use it?

    carp quarry

    http://www.carp.com/carp-forum/viewtopic.php?t=44141&highlight=carp+quarry
  4. hi mate, i didnt have problems with crays at all. i think it was about 4 and half hour drive but cant remember for sure. as for baits most of mine came on home made scopex but maize is a good bait over there as are carp pellets as thats what they are fed with. i all honesty it is a fantastic looking lake with some lovely fish and a great welcome. i fished the double swim nearest to the shower block (lazy lol) fished onto the far bank which is about 70 to 80 yrds. all my takes came on bottom baits. good luck and have fun as i am sure you will mate
  5. just hate it when ya lend stuff out and dont come back, aint far short of theft tbh
  6. oh dear, dont ya just hate that. there was some signed copy's at the carp show and i really wish i got one now
  7. i have now read this and must agree, what a read, and had me crying with laughter at times
  8. mate i hope he is ok and i gotta say sorry for laughing at some of the replys on here. tbh i often do that but after this i have realised how easy it is so you have given me the kick i need not to do it before i have the same problem

    carp rigs

    try 6 or 8, but it really is trial and error mate, the reason you are missing takes could be blunt hooks, hair to short or long, big bait small hook, it could be many different factors tbh mate
  10. I won't lol but people are so closed over there lol. Have seen pics of mid 40s from there
  11. just heard rumours from someone in the know of a big common out of the res at over 50lb that is a serious fish IF true. also if it is true i expect some messages asking me to take this off lmao
  12. carp RUMORED to go to 35 which means they might only go to 25 and for that reason £250-300 max imho
  13. your mate is nearly correct £93 adult ticket £40 night ticket , still good value for money when you have the choice of 17 still waters the chance of numorous 40's lots of 30's and loads and loads of 20's all for 37p a day ! not to mention some very nice sections of river ! so it's £133 a season now? it will be come renewal time ! dont get me wrong, that is still good value for money but caps just aint for me after 2 or 3 years in it. i also hear they have another 3 waters coming up? any truth in it do you know?

  15. dont think caps charge separately for nights mate but have heard they are going up to £100 but dont know if thats true tbh
  16. i cant give much info on it as i only fished it a few of times tbh, but i had fish to 25lb7oz not sure how big they go to but i loved the lake and if i stayed in caps i would have fished it all the times but to many morons in the club causing trouble tbh. the bottom is like an egg box very up and down. they are really up for a surface bait in there in the summer, i found the far end near the damn wall the best area for a surface bait. tbh, although i hate the club and think a lot of members need kicking out i never see any problems on inworth, most problems were on bovvi 1 and 2 amd houchins. go for inworth you wont be disappointed mate
  17. As I understand it, text talk is prohibited on this forum. If you can take the trouble to fire up your keyboard, for heaven's sake take the trouble to communicate in your mother tongue, English! Or maybe you didn't bother with school. Ian Mark, I've just read your comment about dyslexia on the Non Carp Banter section. I have to admit that this wasn't something I'd considered when criticising your use of text talk. Based upon that I hope that you'll accept my genuine and sincere apology for my attack. I'll try to be more tolerant in future. Ian same as and well said ian

    Crimps

    i cant find them
  20. Gaz

    Crimps

  21. Gaz

    Crimps

    jez, i have been told the crimps can shatter fluro? not sure how true this is though but bare it in mind mate. i am going to get the crimps and pliers soon cause i keep hearing how good they are and that the crimp is stronger than any knot you can use
  22. so you started late in life then mate same as really, i aint fished there for 35 years give or take a couple
  23. no cause i am locking it
  24. mate, as my last post said even things like fixed lead aint illegal. if we as carp anglers dont moan then the dangerous stuff will always be used so we need to moan tbh
  25. i think you will find that it is still legal to use FIXED leads but would you uase them? or bent hooks and again would you use them? i have out up 3 good links to leadcore so you cant say there has been no help. if the guy had come on asking about fixed leads or bent hooks my response and most others (and probably yours) would have been the same its just that because idiots like shelly uses and promotes lead core people still use it and it is not completely in the public eye the dangers of it
