We've looked into that and we are taking all the steps to avoid it like trying to separate them, train them separately etc,let them be there own dogs but they still seem to like a ruck and even though we have 2 crates, so far nearly every nap they have been together in one its not going to be easy but we will do our best 😁 We will continue to try though they are quickly taking over, I had a nap in the sofa so I'm doing better now 😔 they are cute and fun though

I think all anglers can answer that question if they are honest with themselves, Some people like a social and still manage to catch from the going swims, people like me who just want to be at the water fishing and looking don't always get the rewards,I like to think it balances out,but it doesn't always, I don't worry what others are catching too often, but more what I catch, but it's each to there own if you want or need to feel like you are top rod you need to sacrifice all the other stuff, I just do what I can prebait, walk round and fish the odd night when I can, the only thing I am keen to do better this year is find the fish before I set up, if I catch one that's all that matters, there is one guy who has been smashing it this year though, he has worked blooming hard walking round, fishing days when it was all he could do and a couple of work nights, but he capitalised on the situation, hopefully I will get a similar window at some point, but good luck to him he's earnt it 👍

If it helps I just looked at the clock and said is it only quarter past 9 I only had 3 beers but the puppies kept me up late settling in and then they woke up at 5am, 😬

We haven't conceded a goal yet if that carries on we can't lose 😬😬😁

I saw that too, seems a big decision he's made but I'm sure he will make it work, he has taken Pete Castle with him also, I listened to his korda podcast the other week, very interesting bloke, Monster carp was brilliant, great episode, some of those fish were mega,

I've found a fox inline with a fox long tadpole insert can make a good shocker type rig, the lead detaches from the tadpole quite often on pick up but only after its done its job

They did mine right in my shoulder, still hurts 2 days later I swear it went straight into bone or something,

Not going won't make it any better though bud, get out while you can good luck 👍

Just go for it, you might get lucky this time 👍

I dont think it usually needs yanking through tbh, I have developed a sort of technique where I almost shake it back through the splice hole I never wet mine either, Aren't you meant to splice the leadcore with the leadcore from that section removed? Much the same as a lead free leader

The fox blue splicing needle is good, What leadcore are you using? And are you removing some of the leadcore, I don't use leadcore as it's banned most places I fish, but I use Gardner camflex unleaded, it splices like a dream 👍

No, well excited, they will be great fun, it's gonna be even more of a madhouse 😂

Well funny story tbh, we went to look at some this morning, me and daughter 2 liked a boy pup and mummy and d1 liked a girl pup, so we are now getting 2 😂😂😂😬😬😬😬 kc registered so should be all good hopefully, pick them up next week

Well it would appear extra nights on the bank cost 😬 We are going to look at some cocker pups today, went yesterday, but we all liked the ***** that had been reserved, going to look at some more this morning, looks like we are getting one soon, 😂

Look what arrived after I left for fishing 😁

Something I recently learnt from something I've watched or seen is when using a sausage gun to make sausages, it is better to make the sausages a couple of mm smaller than the table size this apparently makes them roll better as sometimes they swell a little,

Praise the tackle box line test guide, hallelujah, Only once have I bought a line without checking it first fox exocet spod braid and we all know what I think of that 😂 I have to say I tried fluoro and went back to mono, just find I have no issues, I tend to stick with Gardner hydrotuff, it's so tough it actually got sent to prison, but it broke out by cutting through the bars with its superb abrasion resistance 👍👌

I spent some time with the weed rakes yesterday, now I am not. Even sure I want to fish that lake or swim tomorrow 🤔 I think I am going to just have a good walk round and decide when I see something, I did my tigers yesterday and for some reason I felt I needed an extra bucket of pigeon Conditioner, I think I decided i hadn't gone in heavy enough or something so some swim will be getting some tomorrow 😂

I do like the fact they are so small,but I do like to *** about when fishing though so prefer an alarm that sounds, The S9'S seem to get a lot of good reviews though, everytime I get fed up changing batteries on my soniks, I get tempted to buy some as they are rechargeable and last ages apparently, I also like the fact you can change settings from your bivvy,

Brilliant, that will be nice to see it going back to the wild, well done for looking after it 👍

They take a bit of getting used to watch all the vids on you tube, I tend to go with 2.5 to 3 rod lengths shorter than the spot, you just have to cast it as if you want to hit the spot and it pults the bait all over the area,

Not sure i would usually have the overhead clearance to swing a 6m pole about, but you never know it could work a treat 😁 I have used a spoon to throw bait out on a shorter pole but I could never get it that far, I could spread it though 😁

Nice little work cupboard looking good, will look forward to seeing some creations coming from there 👍

I've just blown the budget on a £6.99 AD spoon (gone large) and a sabre net float £5.99 Total Spend £46.73 Should be quite useful though looking forward to trying it out 👍
