  1. I have an extending landing net handle with a spoon for margin work and a angling intelligence 12m one with 5 extra sections for just in case there used to be plenty of 8m poles for sale as people upgraded to the 12 as the 8was too short
  2. https://www.maggotdrowning.com/forums/threads/peterborough-free-fishing.226488/
  3. I’ll carry on using my barrow just to save my back for the next 50 years lol
  4. I use my barrow as my seat 🤫
  5. Same as and I barely take anything lol and I still have a knackered back
  6. Solar did some flying back leads which may help they were kind of like a drilled bullet slide those on the line above a leader if using one and Chuck it out the sliding back lead will come back about 20 yards or so fish a slack enough line and that portion will be on the deck
  7. So many variables lol tips up if fishing over weed or shallow water etc down if it’s really choppy or margin fishing back leads if I’m fishing a park lake that has beginner sail boards and boats free swimming and swans all the above on a couple of lakes I fish. Back leads do hinder bite registration but save many headaches
  8. But have you learnt the swim
  9. That will be about right i will also use some form of marker elastic stop knot aswell just in case I mis count you would t be the first person who forgot to unclip either
  10. Furlough ends soon should be able to find some quotes spots fingers crossed
  11. Depends on the venue I know for a fact I can go to one of my waters tomorrow and ther will be at a maximum 4 people on it I can go to a couple of others and they will be busy but could slot in somewhere
  12. But what is going to set the hook once the bag has melted?
  13. What rods are you using I can’t see anywhere where it says all I see is 12 ft 3lb tc
  14. There’s always that way aswell lol ordinarily the swivel on mine stays on but I couldn’t be bothered to go and get a rod out so imagine the swivel on the leader
  15. It does I use a tungsten bead as the balance weight and it stops it coming off i can then add putty if needed
  16. I think it is more likely as previously suggested the size of the waters fishing a 200-300 yard wide lake in England is different from fishing Cassien les quis or some 90 acre lake.
  17. I would go down the top and tail route on a bed chair if they are young enough but poster didn’t say lol
  18. How old are the kids could use an unhooking crib or 2 lol those bunk beds could possibly work but I how you going to level them up in the swim
  19. Just use glycerin
  20. I can cast further coming from around the side than I can an overhead thump but I wouldn’t use a full blown pendulum cast (not that I can anyway lol)
  21. It is common in beach casting
  22. Could go for 100 £ could go for 500£ all depends on it you can get a couple of people who want them as bad as each other that’s when prices go mad.
  23. Crocs or flip flops in summer Had a pair of skeetex bivvy slippers years ago http://www.skee-tex.co.uk/products/skee-tex-fishing-bivvi-shoe-17.aspx
  24. Who was it who said if you can smell it the flavour is over the top… or words to that effect i know John baker said it recently but someone said it before him must be some truth in it
