    I'm happy for you , Kev , and jealous as hell ! . At least I , and other forum members will be able to drool over your 'photos . 😃

    Maybe the fella is into his football as well as you , Newmarket , a West Ham supporter ? - then you've got it ! . 🤞

    I have the Fox Explorer Rucksack Barrow Bag Medium CLU441 , and I find it robust , but it's heavy and I keep thinking should I have gone for the Camolite Barrow Bag CLU285 ? . 🤔

    Hi Newmarket I personally would buy the original handles CTR012-12 and CTR012-03 , and probably the Camolite Barrow Bag CLU285 . 😃

    Hi Newmarket I've got the Fox Explorer Barrow , not the Deluxe version that you have . I bought some Explorer Deluxe handles for my Barrow , but I found they flexed , and I needed to retighten the screws ; so in the end I went back to my original handles . 😃

    What an epic read , Newmarket , I'm exhausted just reading it ! . You've only been back 5 mins. and you've got Nicks' 'phone number 😲 ; I hope this doesn't mean favourable treatment ? - if Newmarket steps out of line stomp on him , Nick ! . 😁

    Dogs and fishing

    So where do you get to sleep , Kev? . 😁

    Thread the floss through the eye of the swivel , then put a Baiting Needle through the Boilie ; pull the floss back through the boilie burying the swivel barrel ( leaving the " bottom " swivel eye exposed , cut the excess floss then knot it and blob . Yes , I think it gives more movement . 😃

    Hi Newmarket I'm happy that you have sorted your problem . When I have respooled my Garcia Mitchells if I held the butt section of my rod up in the air like you did , I also ended up with " coneing " . 😃

    I turn the fish finder icon off , that's too much like cheating for me . I use the Deeper on wide beam to speed mapping a lake up ; then I need to revert back to a marker set up to find the interesting areas which annoyingly I can't find ! 😢

    Marvellous stuff , Newmarket , and West Ham won ! 😄

    So you're not an actual Tsar , Nick , just a Super Moderator ? . 😁

    Matching ecological Bobbins , B B ! . 😁

    Is that a baby Heron in the top 'photo , Grim ? . 🤔

    Ooh that looks cold , Nick . I guess there are no margin spots , nor visible areas to cast to ? . A big water like yours is too much of a challenge for me , unless the Carp are going to jump out waving a flag saying " here I am , here I am " . 😁

    I took it to mean that the petrol is pumped into the container ships hot , as it's quicker , but as the petrol cools it leaves condensation . 😃

    Hi Nick I was told by a garage to use brands like Esso with their own refineries , rather than supermarkets as the garage said I would get better mpg . Also the supermarkets get their petrol from overseas which has been hot filled into the ships .

    So I'm guessing you are still in Hospitality ? ; if so do I mention Carp.com to get something off the final bill when I enjoy your fine dining ? . 😁

    Never mind the birds starting to build nests , Highy's Wife has started back Morris Dancing - it must be Spring ! . 😁

    Hi Nick How did your trial shift go ? . 😃
  21. crusian
    Thanks Greekskii , and Emmcee . As you say , whatever I decide use Peanuts sparingly . On one lake all nuts and pulses are banned , but on another I occasionally fish you are allowed to use properly prepared particles ; I just better not use them where they are banned if it leaves an oil slick like the Torrey Canyon ! . 😁

    Hi Carpbell I guess you couldn't make it to The Northern Carp Show where there were probably Bivvies on display ? . Angling Direct usually have the space to display , but not necessarily the brands you are interested in 😔.
  23. crusian
    Hi Everyone Dynamite Baits have recently added to their range of Particles . Should I try the Peanuts now , or wait a few months until the water warms up do you think 🤔 ? . 😃

    I've got a Sundridge Minus 10 Suit ; like Carpbell says about his Ron Thompson suit my Sundridge does the job , but I can't help hankering after a more up to date Snugpak , and I'd need waterproofs over the top wouldn't I ? 🤔 😃

    Thanks Kev and Nick . I'll look carefully at your suggestions before I buy . 😄
