  1. How are you , Nick , all of what's been happening must be effecting you ? .
  2. 4 , and a Pole ! , Money bags 😁
  3. Like the others say , Nick , sorry for your loss
  4. Hello Jules I use Garcia Mitchell 301 reels , and I always have my anti reverse off . Perhaps you have the clutch on your 410 set to give line easily ? . I'm worried that if you get a violent bite your lovely new rod would go flying . 😃
  5. I've got some bamboo socks , and thermal vests . I wonder what bamboo pants are like ? . 😄
  6. When I quickly read the first word of your post , Elmo , I thought " here we go , Elmo has an alternative opinion 🙄 " . There's only one Elmo ( thank goodness ) 😁. Thanks for the tip about B&M though . 😃
  7. Thanks very much fellas . 😃
  8. Hi Everyone I saw some Merino Wool Socks in the sale , but when I started to check on the internet I read about Alpaca Socks . What do people recommend please ? . 😃
  9. That's a lovely Ghostie , Ouch. 😁
  10. Hello Woodcutter . I'm thinking that some of your original gear , and that of Whataclonker , and Jules007 might well be collectors items now ? . As Nick said his water doesn't fish well after October so maybe when you do get back on the bank you may be just getting back into the swing of things rather than actually catching much ? . Tight lines .😃
  11. Yes , I was thinking that , Elmo . You can almost hear Fred ( ? ) , thinking " you do know I'm a show dog don't you ? " . 😁
  12. Well it will be cool to see the photos of your Target when you catch it , Kev , but I'm more excited to see the Doggie Waterproofs and Fleece 😁 .
  13. I agree with Nick's theory . The float stops would probably have been moved to alter the depth , the same as you you would try different depths with a Zig .
  14. I was going to suggest a Multi-rig , but couldn't work out how you would attach the hair ; then along comes Nick to answer that question ! 😃. What I would say though is I use a Chod Hook , i.e. an Outurned Eye , for my pop ups ( thanks Kev. ) , but others on here swear by a Curve Shank Hook ( inturned eye ) . I guess you experiment and choose what works for you . 😃
  15. I'm guessing Public Liability Insurance if you actually ran the fishery yourself ? .
  16. Definately not Ronnie and Reggie . 😁
  17. You big fib . 😁
  18. Are you thinking about your planned Spring '25 Social , Elmo ? . 🤔
  19. That all makes sense to me , Nick . If it isn't nuisance Bream it's Pike , what is a poor Carp Angler to do ! 🙄 .
  20. Not Hydrotuff then , Nick ? . Is it because you are going for distance rather than a snag line ? .
  21. A chunky for Mr Chunkey 😁
  22. Thanks , Highy . I'll give them a trial over this weekend with all these weather warnings around . 👍
  23. I find the Met Office consistently under estimates the temperature . Don't dis Carol tho' or I'll have to give you a slap , Nick . 😁
  24. You mean a fine upstanding heart of oak man such as yourself , Elmo ? . 😁
