Is that your first double , jh92 ? . Hopefully you are starting to work your way through the smaller Carp , and the big boys and girls will come along to find out what all the excitement is about ? . 😃
-
I don't know what part of the country you are in , jh92 , but as you know there are thunderstorm warnings out . As you say take it easy , don't get heat stroke like my Sister , after you've built this trip up / put so much thought and effort into it . 😃
-
Have a great time at your new Res. , jh92 . 😃
-
Watch out fishes here comes " Highys Autumn Campaign " ! . I've only fished 4 times this year due to problems with my toes / family holiday / seeing family / it's too damn hot at the moment , so I'm also looking towards emptying the lake starting the end of this month 😁
-
Hi Barry Well done , and yes that's a Common Carp you've caught . 😃
-
Well it sounds like your Sister is helping now , just like Elmo suggested . Best wishes to you , Highy , you're too young to have to go through this stress . 😃
-
Funny that you should mention that , jh92 , because my Wife and I have just been to see the replica Sutton Hoo Burial Longboat that is being built - 90ft. do you ? . 😃
-
For a split second , Yonny , I thought you were referring to yourself as " a bit of a looker " . 😁
-
Ah , it matches the wild water you like to fish , with your Viking Longboat moored just out of picture . 😁
-
That's a handsome fish , jh92 , but an even more impressive beard . 😃
-
Well I know they are your Parents , and Sister , Highy , but what a bunch of - not allowed to swear on the forum . 🤬
-
Well I guess the English translation is " oh my goodness what is happening ? " . Don't think I would be sticking my hand in the monsters mouth even wearing gloves . 😄
-
Well I went fishing yesterday , and caught nothing , but having read Ouch's report that just sounds like too much hard work ! . Maybe next time I'm fishing I'll have an in between session ? . 😃
-
So have you still got the Tempest 100T for when you fish solo , Highy ? .
-
Nick has just beaten me to it . Sprouted means encouraging the bean ( whichever it is) to germinate . I used to use sprout Chick Peas , and also colour them when the standard Chick Pea was losing it's edge . 😃
-
I'm not jealous , Dayvid , honestly . 😢

What line should i use for my carp rod?
crusian replied to elisabeth's topic in Carp Fishing Tackle and Equipment
It's what Framey has typed - ignore the quoted breaking strain and go by the thickness i.e. 0.40 as Ouch. says . You need a thicker line for abrasion resistance against the branches ; a thinner line may well break at the same figure , but with a straight pull on a weed / snag free water . 😀 -
😱 No ! , bring back cuddly Teddy Bear Elmo .
-
Well you posing all Alpha Male in front of your Trakker Tempest isn't selling it to me , Highy . Maybe Elmo in a Mankini ? . 😍
-
All the best for your Wife and her radiotherapy , Carpbell . Fred seems to be taking a keen interest . 😃
-
Well done , Nick . All that hard work , which probably doesn't feel like hard work to you as the lake is your happy place . Naturalz and your special spod mix . 😃
-
I thought that was a nutritious , healthy meal for you , Elmo ? . 😁
-
Hi Newmarket What about a pellet feeder set up for TJ , it worked for you ? . Would that be the natural progression after the whip ? . I would let TJ ask you when he's ready to go fishing again . 😃
-
Yes , who cares about silly Carp when there's some lovely Mallards about . 😁
