someone / anyone from that part of the country, don't be shy their is enough water around their for everyone lol

lol in which case il give you another tip, you know the stuff people use for packing? you recieve you box and all them annoying nuggets fall out and you chuck them away? they are PVA nuggets the same ones they charge you 4-5 quid for in the tackle shops obviously check one first in a sink full of water just to be 100% but most if not all of them are

evening all just wondered if anyone knows anything about the above OBAS club which looks like some fantastic river fishing on the ouse !! just wondered if they have any other fishing or if their is any in the sorounding area? looks like i could be spending an awful lot of time around Bukden over the summer ! cheers & tight lines Dan

about 10 years ago i tried this with 8mm boilies around the edge of a big patch of lillies on a little farm resevoir i used to fish, worked an absolout treat i didn't use a bag around it at all but i am sure if i had of thought about it at the time a nice soupy cloudy mix would have been the best option. i don't know why but i havn't used it since when it could have been quiet handy in other situations !! with regards to the zig rigs i find that with a nice smooth cast and two pva nuggets, sandwhich them either side of the hook u will very rarely get a tangle, after all the lead is always going to fall alot quicker than your zig. and casting a 1,2,3 oz lead will always get you further than with a float !

You mean this one ? I quite liked the look of it. just a 360 isn't it ? good rig but again in the right situation have fun and keep up the tying, it's good to experiment now and then and the above rig really isn't that tricky to tie like them all a couple of goes and you soon will pick it up.

shhhhh the stuff is too good to share

chav carp no taste for quality

no i know what you mean and i am still yet to give it a go, but is their any particular reason you think it wouldn't work. i have a couple of bits of corn that have been in a glug pot of attractor for nearly a year with the intension of trying this (and i know i don't need to leave them that long, thats where they live though ok) at the end of the day when fished as a visual it does the job

i have to say i am the same, normally fish on top of a another bait as a visual thing but thats not to say it wouldn't work how you describe, popped up over some maize maybe. on one of the france trips last year i fished with just maize on the hair 3-4 bits with the full intension of swapping over to a popped up bit of corn over a couple of bait spoons full of maize, the grass carp went mad on the maize and ended up not trying it. but why wouldn't it work ?

fished it last summer as part of a work competion, 2 nights front lake to ourselves. 5 serious carp fisherman and 4 noddys 3 fish came out all weekend not a bad looking water, bit of litter about, back lake was where i wanted to be all weekend though, looks good but absoloutly chocker with canadian pond weed and i mean chocked, did see some nice lumps swimming around in their. Most honest opinion i wouldn't bother returning, their is other places i would rather spend my money but like i say just my opinion. hope this helps

Why are you not allowed to put your spools in your bag? is it something to do with the line and tying people up? You could cut the pilots head off.... Similar reason you can't take lead weights on cos you could put them in a sock and knock someones head off....! u could probably do that with an apple in a sock ! not to mention the fact that you could roll 5ft of line up put it in your pocket if you wanted to use it to strangle someone ! i do wonder who sits down and dreams up ryan airs rules and excess item s, surprised as their is 7 of you guys ryanair havn't come up with a fishermans surcharge, £15 per reel and £2 surcharge if you have line on the reel,

watcha all, just wondered if anyone is or has been fishing this water latley and if so wondered a: how it's fishing b: is it really as rough as i hear from other forums c: is their anything in either worth fishing for d: am i gonna need a basball bat or lump of scaffold tube in my bivvie if i do go ? e: i it worth driving 55 mins for ? hope someone can answer at least a couple of the above Cheers & Tight Lines Dan

as above use the gardner cylinder rig foam is great stuff i caught a couple of weeks ago with three small bits trimmed down black yellow black. (the wasp rig ) just use on a hair rig setup as you would with your pop up's also if you are gonna fish zigs don't be afraid to fish them on a couple of rods or all of your rods with differant depths for example 2ft 3ft 4ft if one works then swap over and go for that lengh another Korda piece of advice their coutesy of Ali Hamidi thinking tackle three.... i personally always struggled with confidence in the zig with worry of poor bite detection but slowley my confidence has grown over the last few years....and i have some good fish that i would not of had if i wasn't sticking a bait in front of their nose 4ft of the lake bed !! tight lines

i spent three years water skiing it and never saw much in the way of carp, not that you would charging around at 30 mph in a boat obviously. what i do know is that their is or definatly was a hell of alot of cray fish in their the guy who used to run the waterski club stuck a cray trap down and was pulling out up2 200 a day !!!!

were trying to get a group on next year !! but thats all i know looks good from the video though !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Join CAPS great club with a good choice of waters !

shh! lol yes some excellent waters and some not so Trouble with some as far as litter is concerned for sure, but on the whole i like the club I only fish Milton at the moment because of a lack of time (I only live five minutes by car away) I did a tour of there waters a few years ago with my eldest’s boyfriend we just got in the car each week and went somewhere new and it was fun Club waters can be a great way to start carping as they are cheap and the young ones can afford them. So, its a great shame that at Milton Country Park youngsters (obviously old enough to be fishing on there own) have to be with a grown up when they are fishing, its also very discriminatory because it only applies to anglers. i agree and a big open public space like a country park such as Milton is also the saffest place for youngsters to be rather than a mile down a country lane or having to walk through a very large traverlers sight !! i have seen some kids out fishing on one of my other clubs waters of late that could out fish half the adult members any day of the week.... place lake milton i am sure would make a great place for teaching kids to fish not scaring them away.

Good work sounds like it has been a long time overdue !!! Do you fish many of the other CFPAS waters ? i have found a fue hidden gems in their collection of waters and alot of pottential too ! Tight Lines Dan

hi welcome carpcatcher i have been a member of cambridge Fish Preservation Angling Club for a long time now when did they secure Milton country park ? not that i am that keen on going while he is still there of course or i could be loosing my membership. Nice vids by the way

Ah yes, the power of Google! One day, I reckon it'll take over http://www.saffronwaldenac.btik.com/p_About_us.ikml i already found their website, thank you anyway was wondering about rules, if the club still ownes all the listed waters and just some general info as the website isn't that great !

hi i know this is probably a long shot but the power of the internet and all that ! does anyone on here know of, or a member of the Saffron Walden Angling Club ?? i am thinking of joining as they have a couple of nice looking waters, mainly Whittlesford Pit and maybe bordeaux pit ! i am not after any hidden secrets or bait advice i am more than happy to do my own homework just wondered if someone could tell me a bit about the club, the waters etc ?? can u night fish these waters ?
