  1. I've made some hard hookers today and some sinking wafters, or light bottom baits as I prefer to call them. I then made a glycerin based bait spray, that is too viscous to spray 😂 But I've given my hookbaits a coating, and they now smell amazing. And will hopefully harden more and become crayfish resistant.
  2. And then I got another £25 off voucher so bought 5 extensions for £55, I'm now up to 6 wraps capability. Can't wait for next week now.
  3. If it helps I got a good deal by going on ebay, total fishing tackle, got a £25 off voucher £169 rather than £194.99
  4. Today I lashed out and bought a Nash Bushwhacker.
  5. I have shown you the only party that wants to fix this issue. It's up to you whether you want to keep having sewage dumped in rivers now. I'm not getting into another debate about politics. We also can't afford not too.
  6. They are the only ones who offer the solution you wanted ⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️
  7. It does need renationalising. We should own our own utilities.
  8. There is only one political party that want to renationalise our water. To me it's simple people either want waste dumped in their rivers and to have our assets owned by billionaires or they don't. I think if we all stopped paying our rod licence the present government and most other parties would just ban fishing as a consequence sadly.
  9. Do you think I'll be able to hit 20 wraps with it? I mean 12ft ones btw.
  10. The amount of birds nests I have created with spod braid when rushing to get the rods out, probably a good shout,
  11. Having previously used the sweat bands before a session it does make a slight difference, it was nice to have pre soaked line as I do find it makes line smoother and better to cast with and perhaps slightly less springy. But yes once it's been out for a while it is essentially the same. I always pre soak my line before I put it on tbh just seems to make it go on the spool better maybe I'll dig the old sweatbands out for the big one 😱
  12. If you don't soak your line Vs once it's been in the water for a while it just seems to cast better, wrap better and sink better once it's wet. I saw those things at the Essex carp show, good idea but not for me at that price, they were pricey I thought. I did use some sweatbands for a while that I would soak but I left them in the car or somewhere once and didn't bother doing them again.
  13. I think you could do some good stuff with those crimped edges, put a tomato in it and you could use it as a hot water bottle, because it would be too hot to eat for 6 hours like the old brevilles.
  14. Anyone got one of these yet? Looks good for making tasty snacks? https://www.carpscene.co.uk/new-arrivals/ridgemonkey-crimpanzee-toaster-pan.html
  15. No but I did get a delivery from AA Baits, wafter mix today, need to make a batch with egg albumen because they are too soft without. Also got some glycerin to make a hookbait soak if that helps 😂 Then I am going to do a special process to the hookbaits shhhh it's still a secret.
  16. Well done @commonly great result. Really pleased for you.
  17. I don't think you did don't worry.
  18. It censored the thing you use to open a door(not handle) 😂
  19. Knee, (censored) and nipple were the correct terms he used 😂 I like a fathom, half a fathom or even fathom and a half length zigs
  20. Good luck, black seem to work well but keep moving them and changing the depth, until you hopefully find them.
  21. That's why I find it hard that so many people still support Farage. His links to trump are a massive red flag.
  22. I went to the tackle shop Saturday. And I only bought two things. Sticky pineapple pop ups and a Gardner baiting spoon Quite proud of myself tbh. But then I bought 10kg of pellets and wafter mix off AA baits. 10 hookbait pots and 5 bait spray bottles.
  23. Doesn't make him any less of a rapist though.
  24. Are you saying he isn't?
  25. Boring???? We are headed into WW3 with a convicted rapist president (Trying to cover up the Epstein Files) a weak controlled government and a country that has recently commited a genocide, we are headed towards fascism and the rich get richer and the poor will own nothing and be happy, it is this kind of attitude that allows them to get away with it, Also I haven't fallen out with anybody, we are adults we disagree and we move on.
