  2. Carp syndicates leicester/ northampton area?

    in UK Venues and Where to Fish

    Posted

    If i was on the rob i wouldnt be going to the little lakes around leicester id be going for the big boys kit on the exspensive waters where i know theyve got the money lol. Not saying your accuseing me but i aint daft either. Now boys lets play nice lol. Any1 had any decent fish out this weekend? I aint bin out took my daughter to her first seaside.

     

    I was being sarcastic saying that mate about the little waters but I hope you see my point :wink: .... Me I've not fished for 3 weeks now .... Work and my allotment has put paid to that ....

     

    Seaside with the little one is better than any fishing session :wink:

     

    Well in mate 8)

    Oh dear ..... It seems a few of you have been quite upset about matts comments .....

     

    It's not a clicky forum .... Never has been since I've been a member ....

     

    I can see people's point how matt has come over but..... A simple introduction and background and getting to know a few members is what he was on about I think ??

     

    I've fished with matt and my only prob with him was that he also drank Guinness which ment less for me :?:lol:

     

    Now I think all this prob started when matt asked for more info from a member before giving away syndicate details .... And I agree with him ....

     

    Lets say I'm johnny asbo and I'm after sum quality fishing gear to rob to make a few $$$$ so I come on a forum and ask hiya I'm lookin for a quiet water/syndicate that's got big fish but isn't so busy .... We all reply and tell him the puddle at the end of the lane is dead quiet only a few anglers on at any one time with the chance of a good fish ( hence good kit)

     

    So me and my 2 lager lout mates do a night trip have you off and move on to the next victim....

     

    Now I'm not suggesting that is the case with this member but ...... It's always a possibility ...

     

    I've seen matt help people on this forum before and it looks like there's a bit of a witch hunt going on here ....

     

    And that's not what the forum is all about ....

     

    Welcome to the forum Niall 8)

    Cudmore was one of the 1 st commercials around and has got a lot of pools that cover most angling situations .....

     

    But for most members on here it's not there cup of tea .....

    I've fished cudmore on and off for 15 years but not as much the last 3 years or so ...... If your after a day of bagging fish between 4/8 lb then it's a good place for that ..... It's not too hard and there's plenty of waters to tackle ....

     

    It's up to you Pete what you want out of your days fishing

     

    I went once for 24hrs last year and had 13 fish biggest a 15lb common .... But I tend not to go as many commercials as what I use to

     

    It can get very busy at weekends in summertime

  18. Hooking Potential and Hooklink Material

    Posted

    I've watched the Korda videos and I don't doubt we get done quiet a bit .....

     

    But just how many times

     

    I wound in my maggot rig today after 6 hrs of inactivity found a carp in the margins lowered it in and watched the fish take the rig and hook itself .... So am I missing something because I never got done once it hooked 1st time ????

    I use the kd for my snowman set ups and its allways done ok for me and there normally well hooked in the bottom lip

     

    Tied some up a few years ago and stuck with them ..... Don't know how much different they are to KK but it's done ok so I still use it

    Correct me if I'm wrong Neil but didnt you say you was hoping to go France with your mate ( I won't name drop )

     

    And would I be right in thinking that in his 1st 24hrs he's had 11 fish so far topped by a 51lb common :shock:

     

    But hey if you'd of gone we would never of had the mods thread !!!!

     

    I bet your not gutted ....... Much :P

    If you only fish short weekend sessions I'd suggest a local canal or even the weaver but with a bit of pre-baiting beforehand .....

     

    Boilies will still work but I'd mix them with vitalin which is a great pre-bait and bulk it out with corn ..... Try and get some bait in through the week and this can only help your session at the week end :wink:

     

    Best of luck Lee :wink:
