  1. Thanks , Nick
  2. Yes , I guess I have , Yonny you wise old owl . I'll start of with a basic plastic screw , and maybe then upgrade to a small rig ring and attach the pop up with floss . 😃
  3. Ah , ran out of time editing ! . Should I change from a Ridgemonkey Small Hook Ring Bait Screw as sometimes the screw seems to work its way through the hookhold and cause a bit of damage to the Carp's mouth ? . I'm thinking of a plastic bait screw with no swivel . 😃

  5. Thanks , Yonny .
  6. After my Son excitedly watched his tadpoles growing in our pond a Magpie went and ate them 🤬 .
  7. A Dragon Fly hitching a lift on a Common , extraordinary ! . The only way I can think of to get an even better 'photo would be a Kingfisher sitting on one of my rods . 😃
  8. Hi Everyone I've just seen that a tackle shop near one of the waters I fish is stocking the above boilies . I realise if they are a small company with labour intensive methods of production that would drive the costs up , but are the flavours any good ? .
  9. Well done for rising above all the provocations and triumphing . I mean did these numpties not realise from your hat that they were dealing with a serious carper ?. 😁
  10. With such a beautiful setting who needs to catch anything , it would only disturb the tranquility . 😄
  11. That's disappointing , G P . Could your lifts on the bobbin be Bream ? .
  12. Damn these fish they just don't care about an angler's comfort ! . Good on you for putting Sky's needs first . 😃
  13. Oh no ! , in other words I can't just plonk myself down in the nearest shady spot I've got to actually put the effort in , how disappointing . Still good guidance as well as Kev , and Golden Paws .
  14. I hope your session turns out much better than you are anticipating , Golden Paws . Thanks for the tips . 😃
  15. Thanks very much , Kev , top tips there . From a Grey / Ginger 😁
  16. Hello Everyone . I hate this hot weather , but if I did try and go fishing , hiding in a shady spot would it be worth all the effort ? . The water temperature readings I have been getting are in the 20's C . So I'm guessing go for deep , but how deep ? , water ; aerated , and try to avoid the bright sun ? . What are people doing please ? . 😃
  17. Ah , Zombie Sheep Lake ,and now they are coming mob handed 😱 .
  18. Thanks Golden Paws. No fountains for me then ! . 😁
  19. Hello Everyone . A water I fish has aerators installed on the lake bed , and my question is should I fish near these aerators as the water close to them may be well oxgenated ?.
  20. Oh poo . Also you impatiently waited all of June ? , to go fishing and then we have a heatwave ! . 😢
  21. Hello Yonny . I was sad to read about your favourite Koi . I seem to remember in hot countries they errect " sails " to provide shade from the sun , and spray water ( in mist form ? ) over the area they want to cool down . Would this be a practicable / too expensive possible solution ?.
  22. There you are , Newmarket , David Sullivan gone ! . 😃
  23. Funny that you should mention Arsenal in a cheating context . I know a lot of teams now at set plays are pushing and shoving , but it seems to me that Arsenal are the worst offenders . Here's hoping that West Ham get the change at the top that you yearn for and you can start the rebuild . 😃
  24. Well I'm old enough to remember 1973 , and Bob Stokoes' celebration . 😁
  25. So are you from " Up North " , then Yonny ? . No wonder you look " well ard " . 😁
