One of the cogs/wheels/gears or whatever they are called in the middle that makes it spin had shattered, its been put on a shelf for now hopefully fix it in the next few weeks 🤣

I'm not happy, I've dropped a reel while cleaning it and it's broke something inside, reel won't even spin now 😭 ffs 🤣🤣 On a good note I just booked me and my dad onto a lake for 24 hours next weekend 😀

Picked up 2 nash BP 6 reels for £40 😀 gonna pair them up with my 9ft dwarf rods 👍 Also bought 5kg of sticky krill 👍

I woke up in Friday morning with a cricked neck, rested in through out Friday and woke up Saturday with a stiff neck but it felt like it was on the mend. Decided to walk the dog. Dog lunged at a cat. Dog brang all that pain back from the cricked neck and it felt twice as bad!!!! I hate to admit it but I feel like my body isn't recovering like it used to 😂😂😂

It would cost a small fortune in my ford focus 😂 All the best though, hopefully you all have some cracking fish 👌

I was thinking about then I seen where the lake was... 😂😂😂

Discovery cx landing net mate, the net handle doesn't split 👍 my only gripe with it is the clip that holds the net up, but to be fair I've got this far with out using one so isn't really an issue 😂 I've got ngt 2 piece handle I bought years ago I use it with my 9ft rod set. Even though its done by ngt the quality of it is solid 👍

It's nice and light compared to what I already use. The clip that holds the net up is rubbish, doesn't hold it up at all just falls off as soon as I try clipping it in, i will probably remove the ring attached off the bottom of the net, looks like a guaranteed snag on the reservoir I fish 😂 The weigh sling is nice and so are the clothes 👌

Hi mate I got 2 2.75lb tc 9ft nash Dwarf rods and I love them. They are awesome little rods, I've paired them with nash bait runners loaded with 10lb daiwa sensor line. I use them for most of my carp fishing 👍 Heres a video on the basics of setting up a carp rod👍

So my local club has issued a ban on returning catfish caught on our canal. If you catch one it needs to retained, it will be removed and released into a local pond. Originally the idea was to have it killed, but I think a lot of the anglers kicked up a fuss about it hence now they moving them to a pond. My question is, how bad are these fish for our waters? We have otters killing fish all the time, cormorants putting holes in to fish. Boats and pollution releasing chemicals etc into the water. From my understanding the ea won't put anymore stock into the water until the catfish are removed. Are catfish really that bad to our waters?

Just cold rain here. Hopefully this cold snap passes over soon. The night are pulling out I just want to be on the bank 😬 We are gonna check the canal this morning and see if we can spot anything. Spotted 3 pike in the margins the other day, biggest must of been pushing double figures 😆

I was thinking about buying a baiting pole myself but ended up getting a bait boat. It's the restriction of not being able to bait past 11m, so my spots would of been limited. If you want a cheap baiting pole I wouldn't bother faffing about with trying to make one, I would buy an old match pole off of gumtree or marketplace and convert the top section, I don't think it would be too hard 👍

Yeah I've been having this issue as well, but also on other sites. I'm not sure if it's on Google chrome's end, maybe their last patch/update has a few bugs in it 🤔 I've started using duck duck go browser for now 👍

So I've gone into the shed to start putting up some more racking, a bottle of squid liquid has cracked and leaked all over my gear and the floor. It happened a while back by the looks of it and has seeped into the fabrics 😭😭😭😭

This weather is looking good for a bite on the reservoir I fish 😆 anyone out this weekend?

I will have a look mate thanks 👍

Well the printer has arrived, got a couple lure molds designed, going to hopefully get it up and running today and start printing the molds off. Then just need to wait for the plastisol liquid and dyes to arrive so I can start making them 👍

Its crazy I opened the front door this morning and you could feel the warm air hit you in the face lol. It's warm, windy and wet today, I wish I was fishing 😂

It's not exactly fishing tackle but I've just ordered myself a saturn 2 3d printer so I can bring my fishing tackle ideas to life and get some prototypes made 👌

Hi bud not sure where you are selling to but I've found it a lot easier and quicker to sell gear on Facebook marketplace rather than gumtree 👍

The dog is enjoying it more than me 🤣🤣

It's getting frosty here in Devon. Defrost the car before work, defrost the car after work 🤣 Roll on summer I say 🤣

Sounds good 😆 the reservoir i fished last I was putting out about 1kg per rod per day 😆 spent a small fortune on bait over a couple months but it was well worth it, i had a really good go this year and had some cracking fish and a new pb 😁 I want to roll bait for next year so looking into getting a motorised roller/air dough gun and industrial mixer. There was a set on Facebook marketplace which was 2 rollers 20mm and 16mm, automatic cutter, a gun and mixer for £1000. Basically fill the gun up and its ready to roll 😂 Tried to get it but it was already sold 😂

I could tolerate a bucket check but wouldn't have my bivvy and bag checked, are they an airport or something 🤷‍♂️😂 I had a rig check on a new water once, but it was as I just got to the lake, they wanted to see what I was going to fish with. It's a shame so many lakes has become so clicky. I got a few around here that I avoid. If you ain't in their little circle you're an outsider who isn't welcome 😂

I haven't been on the bank for a while but hoping to get out over the weekend, do you think they've started slowing down yet?
