  1. Just having a play with some rigs tonight as I was bored and I wanted to try a slip D rig for wafters and that, was looking at the kickers I had in stock and thought I would try a noodle kicker, quite happy with the result tbh seems to work quite nicely on the palm test and the kicker will make it harder for the fish to deal with I think. J precision advanced wide gape size 4 N trap soft braid Tungsten Noodle kicker from terminal tackle uk
  2. Just bought some new leads from MP Lead shed. Went for some lighter coloured ones like sand, clay and gravel colour because I was horrified how the silty ones I've been using stood out like a sore thumb when I saw them in the margin 😳
  3. Yes I think that can happen I will arrange it so it can be done that way and we can hopefully add a code word to let them know it's us
  4. Just going to be a DIY thread don't want to make loads πŸ˜‚ It is quite simple though, I got the idea off fb
  5. Oh [censored] mine ran out on the 28th march if only I had done it sooner
  6. If you want one they are struggling to find the poles of the same quality I saw it on fb so if you want one may be worth getting one as they may have to stop making them soon
  7. Not sure i guess you need to see what the connections are on the bivvy
  8. And I have just swiped right on amazon for a WiFi extender, I will do a seperate thread as I intend to build my own portable range extender set up for a fraction of the cost of the deeper one πŸ˜‰
  9. I went to allthings3d and I bought 😳 A deeper mount for my actor plus A navigation light for my actor plus And 8 cord zip puller attachments for easy zipping and unzipping of stuff, (non essential but I think in a small way a bit gamechanging πŸ˜‚)
  10. Ridgemonkey small choppa 14mm to 16mm boilies (i have the medium somewhere in the garage) good little tool for halving baits
  11. I went to France Tuesday and came back last night though the euro tunnel no major issues either way, I would say the biggest hold up is uk customs though. With the ferries though it's probably down to the fact p and o sacked all their staff during the pandemic now surprisingly they can't cope.
  12. Scratch that I have had a reply 😊 Hi Elmo, Sorry for the slow reply I have been laid up with Covid. All good for September booking thanks very much, it is £25 per person per night. I will do the Sunday night as an exclusive still anyway. We normally ask for payment in full 3 months before the booking please, so I will contact you in June to arrange payment. Any questions in the meantime please send me a message or check the website for full lake rules, boat use etc Many thanks Rob🎣 Hi Elmo,Sorry for the slow reply I have been laid up with Covid.All good for September booking thanks very much, it is £25 per person per night.

  15. I do mine the same as Tom dove, which seems to be the other way to some πŸ˜‚
  16. Tbh I kind of knew who was where before I got there, and that was pretty much as good as I could've hoped for. There was 5 on last night so I kind of had the choice of 2 areas one which I could've been hemmed in but probably would have had a small chance or where I was where I thought I had a big bit of water to try and find them. You are right though, I could've and should've looked a bit more but I knew the rain was coming and it had been a long day β˜”πŸ™„ I'm still trying to make them work at the minute, I learn something each time so it's OK, I will have a chance at some point ☺️
  17. I had a run I couldn't stop on virginia too many moons ago, I believed that was a catfish, that was also where the duck eater was
  18. There was a 62lber caught on the lakes I fish last night, blooming massive it was, there was a report of a duck eating catfish on their too. Still plenty of boilie eating rudd so they aren't doing that well at eating them all πŸ˜‚
  19. Not a sausage for me, i did take a photo of a nice 20lber for someone though, one day they will feel sorry for me again πŸ˜‚ home, unpacked, clean and fed (mcdonalds) now mutt walk then back to the old grindstone.
  20. Thanks all, got here got in a peg I fancied, got the brolly straight up luckily as its chucked it down ever since πŸ˜‚ I have 3 rods sorted clipped up and raring to go just need the rain to ease now, so I can get them out properly, no point rushing I'm having a cuppa while I wait πŸ™„
  21. No nothing yet will chase him up tomorrow, he hasn't replied to my email yet
  22. 33 minutes till I'm lake bound. Doing a cheeky apres work one, I've been flat out all day to make this happen and after a run of bad luck recently I hope I'm lucky. I feel quite hopeful tonight dunno why come on the carps.
  23. If only I got a bad back from fishing it's usually something pathetic. Picking up a hair brush off the TV stand (irony alert ) Bending slightly or maybe a little stretch at the wrong time. It wouldn't be so bad of it was action man injuries lol
  24. I can message with the final numbers So that's 5 for 3 nights And 2 for two I will message him now and see what he says
  25. I seem to be going through a constant battle with something at the moment ,I've had cold after cold which always seem to turn into a chest infection ,my back has gone about 3 times since Christmas ,this getting old business sucks ,I didn't sign up for this
