  1. Purrdi puss, our 2nd oldest cat, was run over and killed yesterday
  2. If you can travel, look at Little Farriers or Churn Pool, both in the Cotswolds http://www.churnpool.co.uk/carp-fishing/ http://www.horseshoelakelechlade.com/fishery/little_farriers.html
  3. Not an easy water, think the stock is overstated personally
  4. We've just booked a cottage in Cornwall, it's got 4 pools stocked with carp to 20lb( allegedly) along with tench and crucians, will fish early morning and evening can't wait now
  5. Noted wink: SHOOT ,Dawg Nabbit
  6. If solid bag fishing I always fish a popup on a 3-4 inch supple braid hook link, with an AA shot about an inch from the eye of the hook, bagged up on little farriers with this set up:wink: Welcome aboard
  7. I'm sure Welder or Leggs007 will be along to put you right, they've fished there several times
  8. Heard today that there'd been a fish kill on The Avenue and had been closed, syndi members had been allowed to fish The Monument, it's also now had a fish kill, rumour is the 60lber was lost
  9. Is that the one just outside Whitchurch ?
  10. Sorry cant help , but welcome to the forum
  11. Bivvy tramps by Martin Lawrence gets my vote
  12. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Wot he said
  13. Welcome to the forum Mark hope you enjoy All I use for most of my fishing's a straight forward knotless knot
  14. Think you'll find, Nathan, that no-one thinks boillies are the be all end all, maggots are a fantastic bait for carp, as is sweet corn, hemp, tigers, and loads more others
  15. Now seen pics, yes it is safe as has been said no goo for just maggots though
  16. How you know for sure it won't, 1 hook nailed in bottom lip , 1 flying hook, what's to say the 2nd hook can't nail the top lip, they are designed to do that you know
  17. Right imagine this Nat, big hook in bottom lip, hair with 2nd hook slightly long, during fight 2nd hook catches top lip effectively sealing fishes mouth shut. If fish can't open mouth it dies, simples. Or it's mouth is ripped to shreads Don't like it never will, no matter which high profile tit says its good
  18. Don't like maggot clips, and deffinatley don't like the idea of putting 2 hooks in a carps mouth, saw the rig you described years back, didn't like it then , less so now
