I am flabbergasted right now, is there a cloud higher than 9 cos I am on it, that's a proper carp woop Someone told me Yesterday PVA bags are only good in winter π
-

-

Looking like the best 7 quid I've spent, too many mozzie idiots around tonight, it's been another day of go slow elmo tbh, I've seen a couple of backs over my baited spot,and some bubbles very weedy so I've cleared it a bit with a grippa lead, few liners have a feeling I may catch a bream tonight lots of twitchy line bites so far, I've had a moorhen all over me today has been in the bivvy and all sorts, Time for a cider and dinner I think
-
You ain't kidding I had to go in a freezing cold paddling pool today, bullied into it by kids, πππ that wouldn't have happened 10 years ago I would have just jumped in as I had more free flowing testosterone ππ

Rear Rod Pod Rests - Recommendations please
elmoputney replied to RJT74's topic in Carp Fishing Tackle and Equipment
I think the esp ones are pretty good value, just make sure you get the right size for your rod butt type though, but then they fit quite nicely and grip the rod well -
I've got a similar spawning dilemma tbh, they have spawned last week on the main lake I want to fish, they haven't closed it so technically I could fish it next week but should I? Or fish one of the other ones that hasnt started yet? I'm probably looking at Wednesday this week I think so it will be about a week since they spawned π I could treat it as a recon Session and fish a new swim to find features or maybe go and try and fish the lake I fished last week and try and fish a swim where I can fish at a longer range and try out the plastic baits for a session I dunno what to do π€
-
I thought so too, I won't using a lot each time, π
-
Cheers all I went and had a look at monster particles as they have a 50%off sale this weekend, use code bank 50 although it didn't work for tigers However If you look in the clearance section you can get 10kg delivered for Β£25, I thought that will do, will just freeze them in smaller bags and take one out at a time
-
I've been looking at adding a few of these to my particles Dynamite bait Munch bait etc Bait tech growers Are these pre prepared ones any good or should I get some from elsewhere?
-
I got some comments on that photo from some of the school mums on fb saying I look like I am holding my first born π Mrs P laughed when I said that to her just now, I took that as I always do π I've been called a lot worse so I will take ross Kemp π welcome to elmo's deadliest gangs, These may look like an ordinary chess club, but they are selling pawn to knights kings and bishops, I've infiltrated them to see what is really going on
-
I don't understand why you would spend loads of money on a net tbh, it's never made sense to me that one, I spent 30 odd quid on a Sonik one and thought I was being Flash π
-
Just ordered 20kg bucktons pigeon Conditioner Β£18.79 delivered thought that will do for starters, π
-
I am with you on the conditioning aspect they seem to have extras that contain more oils like linseed, hempseed etc, I guess the extra Β£4 might be worth spending for the posh stuff then π
-
Would you guys all say that pigeon Conditioner? Is a better seed mix than other pigeon mixes without aniseed etc? Does the aniseed make it better in your opinions? And what are the must have Ingredients in your seed mix? Naturally I dont mind adding my own additives to make it more appealing such as liquids etc and flavour enhancers like chilli or garlic I've been looking and I've found some different ones, one has mainly larger items see below for Ingredients Ingredients: French Roundberry Maize, Maple Peas, Blue Peas, Tares, Red Dari, Tic Beans Which would mean less airbombing and larger easier to find morsels for the carps π This mix comes in at 13.99 for 20kgs plus postage so pretty wallet friendly
-
That sent Me on a bit of whirlwind googling that I discovered lots of different pigeon mixes that may be worth a try π
-
I was being a shade feceacius don't worry π Will soon be blanking again π
-
They were all a nice shade in there there is another lake on there, where they are a lot darker, wouldn't mind some of those in the album

Having this chair and level rods turned me into a hauling machine ππππ
-
Some if the highlights of my recent session the not an upper double 20lb 2oz this was no 10 looking at that paddle I am not surprised it went like a train
-
Having now used my tracker levelite transformer chair, I can safely say it's a great bit of kit, it's light makes such a difference to sitting on a bedchair tbh, I didn't realise how much it would help but just being able to sit comfortably in the bivvy made a real difference, it would've been far too hot outside all day and it doesn't really effect the lay out of your bivvy, and you just have the extra comfort required, to get up and down easily, which at my age has started to become a factor π
-
The reason I went with stur fry oil though was that it was a mix of oils I am StΓΌck in a queue on Morrisons to find out what they are π’ Sunflower oil, sesame oil, ginger and garlic extract, just add some chilli oil or flakes tasty treats
-
I think garlic is a good oil too I've used that before, chilli and garlic mixed would also be good πΆοΈπ Who doesn't love chilli and garlic based meals π€
