Thanks , Nick . I have to be careful regarding Solar 101's and Kamasan B175's as the waters I fish say I can only use manufactured barbless hooks 😢 .
-
That looks very neat , Elmo , but I'd probably cast straight into a tree after going to all the trouble of tying it . 😢
-
Thanks Kev , Nick , and Elmo . That's lots of very useful information for me to think about , much more than I was hoping for . Many thanks . 😃
-
I hear you , Blue . I can't wait to hook one of these big carp that allegedly just plod around staying deep until it's time to land them ; these low doubles that charge around like nutters , and refuse to give up are so tiring when you are a mature gentleman . 😁
-
Thanks , Kev . I believe you are a Multi user ? ; what coated braid do you use please , and how big a loop at the hook end ( I'm guessing as you are targeting bigger Carp than me your loop sets your pop up fairly high ? ) . Many thanks . 😃
-
Hi Everyone . Your opinions please . Which is best to use for a good hook hold , a Curve Shank Hook with the in - turned eye , or a Chod Style hook with an out - turned eye ? . Would the answer change depending on whether you were using a Ronnie Rig , or a Multi Rig ? . Many thanks . 😃
-
Get well soon , Nick . 😃
-
Maybe you should think of early mornings as very late nights , and wear dark glasses , Nick ? . 😁
-
Much flood water , Kev ? .
-
Thanks very much , everyone , that gives me plenty of information to think about . 😃
-
But is your car a Mini , or a Hummer , Yonny ? . 😁
-
Ooh , that's so Elmo , thinking outside the box 😁 . 👍

Hi Everyone I have some Proper Job Pop Ups , lovely and buoyant , but I have this mental thing where I want to have feed Boilies and Pop Ups the same flavour . Trent Baits I can have matching pop ups ( that stay up ) , and boilies . Essential Baits , is it me or do their pop ups not stay erect as well as PJPU , and Trent Baits ? . 🤔
-
Thanks very much fellas , but what if the Tench could get into double figures would you still go with 6lb hooklinks ? .

From this ‘photo ( you’ve shown us other views ) , Kev. , it looks like a lovely natural lake . My local club lake has had most of the banks “ tidied up “ from the ‘photos posted on Facebook ; I haven’t had the opportunity to fish there this year , but when I do I may well vote with my feet , and not renew my membership . I’m not happy ! . 😡

Hi Callum You beat me to it as I use a Multi Rig with ESP Semi Stiff . Julian Cundiff has a video clip on the Multi Rig with his slight tweaks . I'd be interested to read your results using this rig if you wanted to post them . 😃
-
Mismatched rods , and reels 😱 , what were you thinking , Blue ? ; no wonder you only caught a Bream ! . 🙄
-
So what are you saying fellas ? ; it reads like you both want to be made a fuss of 😁 . I'm a Postie , and usually what happens is a passing dog may strain at its lead to come over to me , and have a good sniff of my trainers . Then I'll give the dog a stroke after letting it sniff my hand . I just love meeting handsome dogs , who are much prettier than their owners 🐶.
-
What about a second hand Fox Explorer ? .
-
Looks like Jack has had a wash and blow dry specially for the occasion . 😁
-
Well , Kev , I have just quoted your post to my Wife , but I think she already understands why I don't go fishing / have to catch a fish to enjoy myself . 😃
-
That all makes me younger than you , Framey , but not by much ! . 😃
-
Hi B B What gear did you use please , i.e. line strength , hook size , etc please ? . Ta . 😃
-
Well that's pretty conclusive , Framey . Thanks for all your replies everyone , all very helpful . 😃

Does anyone know what the Green Party's stance on freshwater angling is please ? . I seem to remember Elmo saying he had spoken to a Green person , and was assured that the Greens didn't want to ban freshwater angling ? . Ta . 😃
