With a life jacket on , pls. ? . đ

Hope you've had a good sleep - did you put your bivvy up , or is their a lodge of some kind for the weary traveller to crash out in ? . When the guys on the forum describe arriving at their lake after dark , finding the fish , casting out baiting up , bivvy up and finally getting to eat when I would have been asleep for an hour , well hats off to them I would have cast 2 rods into trees and had a massive hissy fit ! . đ

Watch out for throwing stick shoulder , Chill. , and hopefully your back is nice and supple as well . Have a great trip , and show us the big kippers ! . đ

Thanks very much , Kev. Here's to your continuing success , and next report . đ

Surely you should be thinking " wot no unhooking mat ! ." đą

Everything in brown it is then , thanks for saving me money , Yonny . I always have more confidence with my Guru Pear Leads in brown , but now they are a strange greyish colour and a pack of 2 instead of 3 âšī¸

Thanks , Yonny . Now you know that Hydro Tuff is available in Brown as well as Green , would you have gone for the brown maybe ? . đ

That's great , thanks very much fellas . đ

Hi everyone I am thinking about buying a spool of Hydro Tuff , but Brown or Green , and are there any breaking strains to avoid please ? . Ta . đ

Can't you train your little lad up to be a painter and decorator then you could sub contract , Highy ? đ

If adding floats as Elmo suggests doesn't work maybe Dannygooner uses a leightweight net as he is a mobile angler who travels miles ? . đ

Hello Lorez , which bought rig gave you most confidence / best hook holds ? . Why not take that rig and then buy the components to tie that rig yourself , unless it looks particularly tricky / costly , and you would be better off just buying ready mades ? . Personally I have never liked tying up rigs , I always seem to be putting it off ! . đ

That's a beautiful wallet , Highy . đ

Can you post a review of the Pallatrax Grips please Kev. ; IMO it would be good to have a review of beaked points to go along with Welders and Smufter reviews of straight points . đ
-
No , sorry , I've never seen anything like that before , good luck finding some . đ

Have you looked at the ESP Cryogen range , Kev. ? , maybe a Grip Rigger if the ESP blurb is to be believed . I'm not fishing a weedy lake at the moment , so unfortunately I can't give a personal recommendation . đ

Well if they have a mini submarine to go in . đ

Yes and laughing their socks off , which is why you don't see any fish wearing socks . đ

Just adding to what Framey has already said ; I once bought a Delkin because a lot of people rave about them , but I sold it and my Fox Micron M's do what I want just fine . If later on your needs change the Micron's are cheap enough to keep as back ups . Watch out that it's not you that gets " caught " by some of the fishing companies hype ! . đ

Hello Pablo , I started out float fishing lunchonmeat with a sz. 10 and 8lb line , but slowly I have graduated to a sz. 6 and 15lb line . Like Nick mentioned , the Carp I am likely to come into contact with aren't huge , therefore I'm not ready to go up to 18lb and a sz. 4 . I think you'll get used to scaling up if you do it in stages . đ

You Contrary Mary , Elmo ! . đ

The waters where I fish now I am spoilt , either a brick built flushable toilet or a Premier Hire Portaloo .; but at a previous lake , well I wouldn't have wanted to be a rabbit trying to get out of it's burrow ! . đ¤ĸ

You're not easily put off are you , Mufty ? . The thing I don't understand is doesn't your local have any trees and bushes tucked away , and together with a trowel you wouldn't need to go home .? . đ

I'll have to try that excuse , I'm sure my boss will understand . đ
