Now that takes me back..... I fished there probably 30 years ago as a spotty teenager. I remember turning up with all my kit on my back and there's these proper carp anglers with barrows everywhere. I loved it. I recall on my first session I hair rigged a cube of luncheon meat and hoyed it as far as I could (which wasn't far with the absolutely rubbish rods I had back then) and had one within 2 minutes. I got some right dirty looks from the proper anglers 😅
Which version of the Warrior? If they're the originals with the Japanese X-Wrap shrink handles, I think I have a couple hidden away. I'd like to keep one but, assuming I can find them, I might have a spare tip section.
Water temps shot up to 7.1C last week after the really cold weather disappeared. Yesterday I popped a handful of food in and the "stockies" i.e. smaller koi ate it all.
The temps were so good I went fishing on Friday night. Blanked, obviously(😅), but on Saturday morning the sun came out and I saw carp with their backs out! Chucked zigs at them for an hour but was already late for home. Always next time.
I move it every day. Apparently at certain times of year it actually attracts them and a month or so ago I saw it perched next to the fake one!
Yeah that's the plan mate!
We have one already. We have a separate goldfish pond further down the garden and it's standing next to that. Hasn't worked.... lost a couple of the bigger goldfish.
Yeah this is where I'm at mate. Just need to figure out how I'm gonna do it.
