  1. Ridgemonkey small choppa 14mm to 16mm boilies (i have the medium somewhere in the garage) good little tool for halving baits
  2. 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.
  3. 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.

  7. 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 ☺️
  8. 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
  9. 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˜‚
  10. 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.
  11. 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™„
