  1. Your first sentence summed it up for me. "You got in a peg you fancied", which tells me you had a preconceived idea of where you wanted to go and therefore not have good look around and try and find fish (apologies if I've got that wrong). I've done the exact same on overnighters and my catches were few and far between. I found overnighters hard work, to the extent that they would mess up my weekends fishing as id be so tired. Hope you get lucky next time.
  2. I'm guessing he will only recommend his own liquid additives to enhance nutritional values in his bait, thats if they need it as his base mixes and recipes are on point already. Most of, if not all his base mixes have recommended recipes. Adding stuff for the sake of it can have a negative effect on bait and also on your pocket, sometimes less is more. I've used his stuff in the past and caught on it.
  3. You're putting the effort in and deserve your rewards. Keep'em coming
  4. Some right bangers there mate, fair play 👍
  5. Agree 100% with the media being like that. The print/say anything that sells a story , they are proper scum
  6. If he is referring to himself then he's not a "fisherthem" as that is plural. Why couldn't he just say fisherperson or as mentioned already an angler or would that rule out the people that identify as a tree, goat or whatever it is they identify as? I bet he's good at scrabble mind, making up all sorts of words just to please himself or should that be "themselves " when he's talking about himself. Confusing isn't it🤣
  7. Mid February used to always be a good time in my experience. Little bit more daylight and some heat in the sun so you never know, good luck.
  8. Not surprised youve been in your own bubble. Tough times indeed but family certainly helps as does some you time at the lakeside. Also don't ever be afraid to talk to someone if you're affected by your friends passing. One of my closest mates has been battling cancer for the last 2yrs. Things seemed to be going well but it's now come back and it has attached itself to his cartoid artery at the base of his skull (the blood supply to the brain) and its now incurable. Chances are he won't make the summer. So definitely focus on yourself and your nearest and dearest. Fishing is a great escape but so is being around loved ones, make the most of both.
  9. I used to make enough paste to fill the bait gun and that's it. So instead of doing 6eggs or in your case 10eggs at once , I did say 2 eggs at a time. Don't get me wrong, I would blitz say 30 eggs at a time, add liquids etc and I worked out that 150ml of the egg mix plus base mix would fill the gun perfectly. It meant I did say 12 mixes instead of 5 but I had no paste sitting and therefore drying out/ stiffening up. .
  10. I did a fair few work over nighters and totally messed them up. I was always in a rush to set up and I'd never go further than half way up the lake to save a long walk back to the car park in the morning (not ideal when more often than not the fish were up the other end). So as with any session, don't rush and find them first or you are just wasting your time in my opinion. I'd pack up in the morning saying to myself "at least you got some bait in" 🤣
  11. Nice bit of kit mate and as "ouch" said, good luck in christening them. When I decided that sea fishing was for me I nearly got a pair of these but as all my carp rods are Harrison I decided to go with Harrison for my sea rods and had a pair of Torrix P2's custom built.
  12. When rolling my own baits I've only ever used wpc (whey protein concentrate) as my main binder binder.

    It's not like social media or any kind of media to twist a storyline is it 🤣.

    Surely the BBC should be on your list along with Kyle, farage etc?
