  1. have put a few answers up about fishing in spain. just hunt for the threads
  2. That's my favourite fishing book as well, its quality. 2nd Favourite is probably Terry Hearn's "In Pursuit of the Largest". My favourite non angling book is probably Howard Marks' "Mr Nice". One of the funniest books I've read is "The Raymond Delauney Emails" which is full of wind up emails to various people and companies. Got to just love Mr Nice, Howard is a star! Can't wait for the film to come out, sure Rhys Ifans will do him proud
  3. Ok, favourite fishing book is Dave Lane, Obsession with Carp. brilliant and hillarious from start to finish.
  4. Well the title gives it away really trying to do a bit of reserch on this water. All answers gladly recieved
  5. I went there this year in end of june i think. did 5 nights on the bank and had 790lb of fish, there are a lot of smaller fish in this venue and the owner even admitted he has struggled to drain and net the lake. There are some big cats in there i had several 40's and a 50 that will hammer you on boilies or any other bait you got and they are fun but there is one or two you just can't get with carp tackle. They do rent cat rods and if you want a big cat use beefburger(cooked) and one of the owners catfish rod setup. It does hold some big carp but i never got one over 30lb but ACTION was start to finish and there boilies do work well if you run out of your own. The location is a castaway from a main road as my guest kept moaning about. all in all i really enjoyed my trip but i wanted less of a runs water if i'm honest but hey like i said 790lb in 5 nights!!
  6. Hello people i am looking for any information at all regarding this water. All answers will be appreciated here
  7. Try castaway lake, in ajain, france, has big fish but when i fished there i had almost 800lb of fish in 4 nights, mental fishing
  8. Its pretty deep, full of water with gravel and silt and weed and the odd fish...... A tough water really
  9. Kryston dark, I LOVE IT! and it works well in all scenario's. For me anyway
  10. There is white springs in swansea, although i have found in the summer is simply packed out peg to peg 3 rods real tough going and if i'm honest not a plesent experience. However during the colder weather this place comes into its own, less pressure, its a beautiful lake and its got a good head of 30's in there to play with. Will be there this winter myself for a few sessions
  11. Hi, have just joined the guys syndicate at Linear and was hoping to find anyone on here to have a chat with about the three lakes. Present or past members or anyone with experience of these waters before i head off for my first session. Post or PM me please.
  12. Thats the joys of carp fishing mate!!!
  13. I generally use the korda mesh Boilie or long chuck stick pva stuff, always pulled onto the hooklink with the hook pushed ito the mesh and no where near the knot. However never had a problem of finding pva still on the line etc even when having almost immediate takes. Sounds like cheap PVA to me mate try something new and do some bucket tests on the bank always a good way to be sure
  14. Try castaway lakes, ajain France. Just got back from 4 nights there and had 739lb 10oz of fish (6 hours sleep also) Not bad going on 3 rods
  15. Hi guys have been told that looks like my lake will be shut this weekend due to spawning so gonna try my hand on little horseshoe again. Had some nice little chestnuts last year. Any one been there this year or know how its fishing at all??? Or any ideas of any other lakes within about 100 minles of the severn bridge?
  16. Lemington Lakes, moreton in marsh mate. Definately worth a try mate. Westminster has carp to 25lb+ Beautiful fish just make sure ya got your unhooking mat and check the rules on the web before you go. You will not be dissapointed
  17. Listen to Andrew there and you can't go far wrong! Take a camera though as every fish you catch you will want to capture on film as they are all stunners mate. tight lines and let us know how you get on
  18. I have had a problem recently with taking my dog fishing. Last year i took her with me 2 or 3 times to my usual lakes with no problems. I then decided to join their syndicate water and now i am a member i have been told that the dog is not welcome on this particular lake. this poses the question whats the difference between a dog on one lake and not the other when they are all within a stone throw away from each other? But haey what can you do obviously not mans best friend up there
  19. Hi guys anybody been to this venue??? All answers welcome please
  20. leave it with me and i will try to get some more details, but thats not to far from my folks place
