Welcome back

Worth a shot ….. 😂

It’s freezer space that is my problem tbh but not too much of a problem , air drying for me is purely to solve storage issues . I air dry em in 2x 5kg bags till they’re like musket bullets and store em in buckets . 20kg does me for the year but half go in the freezer until she moans about space. Im rehydrating baits at the moment as an experiment as much as anything else but I’m never sure how long to leave em in liquid or even how much liquid as I want em catapultable if poss , every forum and/or video tells you their own preferences rather than any hard and fast rules and the one thing I don’t have is lake water 😊. Im usually in Nick’s camp and sling em in as bullets . Never seems to have failed but then how can you not have confidence in one of Mike Wilmott’s baits however you apply it ?

Opening up an old thread , I tend to use a mixture of Air-dyed and rehydrated boilies , whatever I have available really . This year I’m rehydrating my B5 and Black Snails using B5 liquid Carp food and a sprinkling of stick mix over them . One question , I’m sure it’s just a matter of preference but when your boilies are rehydrating, do you keep the lid on your bucket/container or the lid off ? I wouldn’t want them to be TOO soft if you get what I mean …

Don’t steal the fish 🤣

I put the word ‘Jordan’ into the search . all clever stuff 🤣

Is this you ?

Interesting read Danny , certainly better than some of my Ill-thought out ramblings on here . I’m interested in your actual fishing method for the catch ? You know , rig style , lead arrangement, bite registration method etc and whether you consider it to have made positive contributions to your success there ? I assume being so close to the syndicate record your pics will be up on the website gallery very soon . Congrats and looking forward to reading more of your thoughts.

Even Vicar’s go fishing

Yeah website doesn’t even exist anymore. watching brief on eBay for flogging stuff off cheap I reckon

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Not like this one mate 😉

You have mail mate 👍🏻

I dunno if I’m honest . I’ve been looking on and off for years and I’ve never been able to get any information . JRC have changed and/or updated their Bivvy range regularly over the years but have never been able to find out if any of the newer wraps would fit the STi’s especially the 2man versions. Ian ( @welder ) owns or at least owned one at one time . if you see this post Ian do you think it might do the trick ? it’s an awful lot of dosh to waste on taking a chance , after all.

Just popped on to say I’ve been looking for one of these for Donkeys years. more chance of West Ham staying up.

Hello mate , I fear you may have to bite the bullet and buy from the uk . this thread is old but the tackle firms suggested are mostly still thriving . good luck fella 😉

Hello mate , if Snowman Stevo sees this he may be able to assist. He’s a Scouser so will probably be able to suggest somewhere your boy can nick a few . Ouch did I say that ? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Moyes out ! Clueless er person .

Rather relegation than a Tottenham reject

When have I ever been any different ? it used to be big fat Sam …. now it’s the other 🦕

We are getting smashed tomorrow. my guess is 5 or 6 nil ☹️⚒

Genuine question, what makes a lake ‘abandoned’ ? And if it’s abandoned does that not mean that nobody owns it ? I can’t understand why someone would own a lake and have it just sitting there doing nothing . Surely if you own a lake and don’t want it you get rid ? Some people must have more money than sense 😄

I’d just like to wish everybody a Merry Christmas while I have the chance ( especially you Carpbell , 🤞🏻 for you and the Mrs) and good luck for the new year with your fishing , whatever discipline it may be . Reading above about all your salt water exploits has had me thinking about it a bit. iIts never appealed to me tbh but I work down near Tilbury Docks and in my tea break I’ve noticed a few people fishing the Thames . They’ve been too far away to ask them myself but does anybody know what I’d be likely to catch should I have a dabble myself ?

It’ll probably be next Xmas before it clears 🤣

A winter sleeping bag was on my list after my Mrs asked , so I gave her a trio to choose from in preferential order . The next evening I got told to “do one” whatever that means 🤣. So I have to raise the money by other means . I sold enough stuff the other week to cover it … then the Boiler and Vets bills swallowed it . I won’t be venturing out without one.
