My little contribution to the weekends captures along with a tench. Sadly I blanked last night, no wonder the pub chucked at a showing fish mesh bag didn't produce the goods came in looking like that, Cracking weekend though, lovely lake, good to share it with some of you guys, hopefully will get to have a return match sometime. Good luck tonight guys, hope you catch a few more belters. 👍🤞🤞

Caught it from right under that tree with the boat, bosh

I've just arrived home, I managed 1 carp of 13lb and a tench, been a great weekend and great to meet some of you guys IRL. Can't wait for the next one.

Yes mate best thing about it, you don't lose anything you put on the floor because it stands out 😎

It was too dark by the time I got my rods out, to be fair my new groundsheet is vastly superior anyway 😀

The only times my Alarms go off is while I am setting the bobbin, got to get some value out of them 😂

Carp chronicles can be brilliant or headbanging I find. I listened to some of the great debait last night, fried my brain right up and was way too deep for me. I like the baitworks one and the korda one depending who's on it, Nash same it always depends on the guests I think.

Apparently not as much as i should have 😂 my plan to go tonight quickly fell by the wayside as I still ached significantly today.

I don't think the swims will be that small tbh, the pictures I've seen look pretty spacious, I wouldn't worry too much, My only concern is if I need a front or not, I'm thinking axs shelter at the moment, with new hilux groundsheet 😎

$Gym was pretty busy for 10 30pm, went in and did my thing though, going to ache like hell tomorrow, Did some iron pumping and stuff #gainzbros

I finish work at 10pm then I am making my gym debut 😳 I've even googled a plan so I know what I'm gonna do when I get there 😀😲💪

I don't think the swims are that small there are certainly some a 2 man would be OK. I'm not sure which one to bring either though 😳 I'm waiting to see what the weather holds in store for us, feels a little autumnal tonight which is nice, I'm feeling giving them some bait at the moment 😀

I think I got mine from rig locker too

Either will probably be fine then I should think mate, just go with what you think.

I am used to a 0.40mm line so it seems quite thin to me 😀 I've cast 20 odd wraps with it and it seems OK, if you need distance get the thinner one if not go with the thicker one.

I use the 20lb one, looks nice went on well

If you are fishing snags and stuff I would consider the 20lb one, If you look at the diameter it is probably more like a 14lb line or something it's quite thin, it is also quite low stretch so I have found it does break a little easier even at 20lb,

I'm using the wild carp camo line at the moment it's been alright so far only used it twice though so not a long term review,

Sounds good to me, it's getting towards that time of year when you want something nice and hearty, might have to have a go at making it.

Did you grow up on Lancashire potato hash? Or "tattie ash" as I believe it's otherwise known. I googled meat n Tato slice and that came up looks quite nice 😲 Proper northern comfort food apparently. Eaten with bread n butter and red cabbage.

That sounds like you want to put shepherd's pie in a sandwich to me 😲

Homemade Wigan kebab that's next level isnt it? 👍

After spending the day trying to tidy our house and reorganise/declutter all of our toot and adding to the loft collection, we had a pizza, I'm hoping fasting and dog walking will counteract that lil blip I might go visit the gymnasium later but we still have a lot of work to do, I dream of an organised house but we haven't got there yet. Just having a black earl grey then I'm gonna crack on, I'm learning I don't need milk and sugar. 124.5kg this morning so going the right way 💪

That's a great picture Kev, probably as hard as it is to catch them getting a shot like that.

Just incase you thought i was joking meet mr amazon just delivered it 😂
