Agree with everything the man says,he does have a way with words....but to answer your question,seeing as it is only a small place all you have to do is go as much as you can and you will catch every pike in there sooner or later,some more than once,pike are not hard to catch.....but they do have to be in there in the first place if you know what I mean,If the place has a fence round it then you are quids in ,happy days

Hello,I think pike do feed in the dark,but not at night if you know what I mean...if it gets dark at 5pm then they might get caught up to about 11pm.then thats it till the next morning,,also i.m.o night fishing is bad for pike and night fishing and free linning is even worse

The main thing is the condition of them pike,they look perfect to me,well done,I would guess they have not been caught to many times before,happy days

Hello all,I recently bought some alarms of e.bay,the bloke said he was not sure if they worked,but I thought I would have a bid,anyway I got carried away (should not bid for anything when you have been drinking) They cost me £32 and guess what they don't work!!! So i've opened them up to have a look thinking it might be a switch or something simple,no chance there is a circuit board and loads of resistors/capacitors etc,don't know where to start...They are not fox etc,think they might be home made,I do like using old stuff and would like to repair them,but as I have already spent 30 quid more than I think they are worth my question is seeing as its probably just a cheap part that needs replacing has anyone got a rough idea how much it would cost to repair please.

You could try rib valley,you don't have to book and they have a good tackle shop on site,you buy your ticket from the shop

I would not go fishing without my dogs(best mates)we had many good times together,Sadly they are not here anymore,I miss them dearly.I do not enjoy my fishing now

don't take him,if you lost him you would never forgive yourself

Well I like Danny,I watched all the underwater DVD'S,and loved them all,I did think that no one wanted to disagree with Danny but someone has to be the boss,bet they had a right laugh making them

Surely it depends how clear the lake is,in the lea valley the pits are like tap water so you can see why night fishing might be better,if this place you are fishing is always coloured up then camafage is less important imo

I am still naffed off that I missed out on his last book.Another Glorious Waste Of Time,it was on my xmas list but my missus left it to late and they were sold out.Anyone got one to sell or swop for some other book? Edited for swearing nw.

He is up there with Chris Yates John Bailey and Rod Hutchinson, any thing they write ,you should read.

Fingers crossed boy, i know what its like to bait and prepare a swim only for someone to be in it when i turn up,Round here in the lea valley it happens all the time,Luckily ive found a little secret spot,prepared it,fished it about 12 times now,caught a tench the other day, happy days,MAIN thing is no one has seen me come or go.only prob is that if i died no one would ever find me.!

Think i'll give that a miss then,that's what has happened round my way, luckily i can still find some secret little quiet spots.happy days
