Turned down the whole 6,000 Stevo . Nobody knows why and there's been riots down here as to why .....

Payet is more than a level above the Spud Mufty . Ali looks full of promise it's true but we'll have to see if he is consistent over a period of time or whether he'll turn out to be another Pennent , Lennon , Gillespie etc etc ie a flash in the pan . We'll see how the Spuds fare without him and Brucie bonus after the big clubs have come knocking How much do you think we'll have to pay for him ? :)

You know that mate

Be careful what you wish for . VERY careful !

For sure Steve , the big clubs will spend BIG on the back of that tv deal . Tottenham'll spend a few quid too

Do you know what Steve , I really don't care that much mate as long as we finish top half . It's been so refreshing just to watch a decent game of football compared to what we've been used to recently that ANYTHING is an upgrade on the prehistoric tactics we've suffered for the last 4 years . I know the man was given a brief and fulfilled it for the first 2 seasons and everyone down here appreciates that as a job well done but his brand of football is outdated , boring and won't save the Mackems this year and it's a shame because they are like the Geordies , what I consider "proper" fans. For once I feel totally vindicated and I'm glad I wasn't careful what I wished for Great Prrmier League this year , anyone can beat anyone , nothing is certain and everyone's loving it ....

Nicely done Nick , out of interest whereabouts in Essex do you do your piking ?

Blimey you have a lot going on there Neal you've made me dizzy mate . Whatever happened to the straightforward kk rig ?

Just found this too Jon

Hello again Jon , I've had a few lead bags over the years and their all the same imo I've git a JRC at the moment but these are just as good http://www.ebay.co.uk/ulk/itm/271314927099 As for indicators , don't believe all you read but these really are the nuts http://www.ukmatchangler.com/carp/articles/tackle/korda/stow.php

It is quite a wide river for sure . In fact it took the Germans a whole day to cross it

There IS a God after all

They're awful at the moment , doubt they'll stay up and it's been on the cards for 2or 3 years . Think they may get beat in the cup today as well .

Lovely

Hello Jon , I can obviously only recommend what I use myself mate . It's all reasonably priced stuff that you would pay a lot more for were it sold by Fox or Nash . http://m.gooutdoors.co.uk/tfgear-cross-pod-p271560 http://www.climaxtackle.com/maver/quiver_holdall.htm http://www.tacklebox.co.uk/bait-making-equipment/air-drying/the-air-dry-boilie-bag-company-5kg-air-dry-bag.html#/product/40055 That'll do for starters matey , I'll post the rest when I can

Rubber grub grub 3 men in a tub la la la la la la

Am I right in thinking that a rubber grub does the trick here ?

I'm not certain but I think most of the hooks in my bag , in fact on the market , are Micro barbed mate . Whether Barbed or Microbarbed I use side cutters to snap the hook prior to hook removal ( as recommended by several members here ) ....that way the pointy end comes out the way in went in Just to be on the safe side In fact I was discussing that very subject with the bailiff on my water only the other day and it is generally agreed that it's a good safe common practice .

Oh good Barbed or Barbless I used barbed hooks even on barbless only waters , which is nearly all that I have fished. I'd rather be kicked off a lake than cause mouth damage to a fishy , though having said that , the Bailiffs on my water know I use em and why and they are quite happy for me to do so as they have seen the way I unhook fish .

Oh well Nick and Hutch explained it a lot better than I ever could

That's what I have Dal though I have yet to use it in anger or otherwise

Glad I bought what I bought when I could by the sound of things
