  1. Palomar knot no doubt. Small neat and very strong.
  2. Lol should of known that was coming. You been out much?
  3. Newmarket, Newmarket, Newmarket lol. That was brilliant. Your usual ways strike again. when you do win you have to buy the lake im fishing at the minute so we can restock it and sort it out lol.
  4. Hi guys and gals, anyone fished it lately, tempted to do a long ish session down there. Just wondering if any one knows what its fishing like? Many coming out etc. IM torn between oakside, boscathnoe or staying down millpool for what will feel a lifetime if i don't get a run lol. Thanks sw
  5. Omg £3 a rig. IM in the wrong business. Rig making is where the money is. Looks like a backwards multi rig to me or blowback. I might rebrand the chod rig the god rig and make a fortune by using bottom baits rather than pop ups lol
  6. Just use a twig instead of a hairstop as it will come off. Seems a good idea but i don't know what makes in bio degradable. Guess it would have to be tested.
  7. Good point. Some flavours defiantly work but too many don't and are advertised to work. Guess it depends on water you fish. The one thing i don't understand and its a lil off topic so sorry is that the lake i fish the carp are far too wary of chum mixers or bread etc on top. They hardly get fished for and haven't come out of the top for years so why is this? Is it because its unnatural to them. Hence why zigs work. Mid water food. Surely they eat stuff on the surface under the bushes etc. Sometimes we are the ones being caught i admit that. Deffo when its this bait and that bait, that rig and that way.
  8. Yeah i seen a clip a mate sent me of Simon Scott answering a question. Think its from that dvd tbh. Tin hat on lol.
  9. Yeah quite true i think milky. That's why im trying flavoured and unflavoured this year to see how they compare. Its like i said in the previous post about what Simon Scott says about it being similar to them hoovering up gravel etc. They don't become aware of the hookbait until its too late unlike a boilie or corn which smells, tastes etc. I wonder if the plastic smells attractive to them or is it just that it looks the same or the fact they need to put it in there mouth to sample it as a viable food source as they don't have hands. Lol
  10. I always pierce a few holes in baits and this enables the liquid to suck in more. Foam is the best for taking on flavour. Done well on yellow, white and pink foam soaked in alsorts. Good for zigs, tipping of boilies, singles or under a piece of standard fake corn etc. Ali hamidi don't know whether i like him or not lol. Never met him but seems honest enough just a marketing tool for korda though. Or a complete tool as some have told me lol. He doesn't take things too seriously that i do like. Omg you mentioned goo know the forum will be in meltdown about the fluorescent drain liquor lol. I think the flavoured plastics are good like the immortals range
  11. Ive got my plastics coated in fruit frenzy and fruit sense appeal hasn't changed my catch rate yet but nothing has on millpool except boilies and pop ups. Ill wait till next year to get a verdict on it. Ive done well on other lakes on kordas ib corn but tbh you could catch on most things as the lakes are higher stocked. Got to agree with what I heard Simon Scott say that they pick it up and don't rush to eject a plastic bait as its like a stone or something similar they always have going in and out with no taste as such rather than a boilie full of signals. Imo and Simon Scotts of course lol
  12. Lol funny man Newmarket we had a bite last weekend lol
  13. Has anyone on here ever fished Millpool lake in Cornwall????
