  1. Hi Elmo As a glasses wearer I've got what I call Brown and Grey clipons ; I used to have some fly fishing glasses which you could change the lenses on , and they had what I would call yellow lenses , as well as brown and grey , which were great as Dayvid says . I would love some yellow clip ons , but I can't find any .
  2. Well done , Nick , but is a wonky Bank Stick allowed in Pike fishing ? . 😁
  3. So you've got a new job that you are enjoying , and a new water / project that you are also enjoying , congratulations , Nick . 😃
  4. No Happy Meals for your kids then , Elmo ? . 😀
  5. There's Buzzards where I fish in Suffolk , Welder , they always circle high in the sky with a very distinctive call ; only trouble is I need a proper camera , rather than my 'phone , set up on a tripod ready to roll - the Buzzards don't hang around very long . Don't get me started on the Kingfishers , stand still , dam it ! , although they're beautiful in flight .
  6. I guess you are not allowed to cut new swims even though you are in the owners' good books for bailiffing their Lake , Mufty ? .
  7. So does this mean you're going to get Ziggy , Chill ? . 😃
  8. With a life jacket on , pls. ? . 😀
  9. 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 ! . 😃
  10. 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 ! . 😃
  11. Thanks very much , Kev. Here's to your continuing success , and next report . 😀
  12. Surely you should be thinking " wot no unhooking mat ! ." 😱
  13. 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 â˜šī¸
  14. Thanks , Yonny . Now you know that Hydro Tuff is available in Brown as well as Green , would you have gone for the brown maybe ? . 😀
  15. That's great , thanks very much fellas . 😃
  16. 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 . 😀
  17. 👍 😁
  18. Can't you train your little lad up to be a painter and decorator then you could sub contract , Highy ? 😁
  19. If adding floats as Elmo suggests doesn't work maybe Dannygooner uses a leightweight net as he is a mobile angler who travels miles ? . 😃
  20. 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 ! . 😃
  21. That's a beautiful wallet , Highy . 😀
  22. 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 . 😀
  23. No , sorry , I've never seen anything like that before , good luck finding some . 😀
  24. 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 . 😃
  25. Well if they have a mini submarine to go in . 😁
