I ended up getting the wychwood tactical x high chair, really happy it. It is a bit on the heavy side but not really an issue when using the barrow 👍

I've been looking at the wychwood tactical x high chair, it's a bit of a monster, weighs in at 7.5kg, recliner with arms etc. But it looks high off the ground. Has anyone used or seen one in person? I'm after something high off the deck. I've got a low chair at the moment and it's getting uncomfortable on the knees 😂😂

Nicely done mate 👍 do you use trebles or single hooks? I'm thinking about trying circle hooks on my next session?

How did you get on kev? I'm out tomorrow morning with some rag worm, plan to fish them drop shot style off a deep rock mark 👍

What do you class as a short session if I’m doing a day trip I will just buy a meal deal from a shop 👍 maybe a flask of tea or coffee too. Are you putting your bread in a cool bag with ice blocks or something? I usually put half a loaf for bacon sandwiches in my fishing rucksack and never had any problems, will keep for a good 48 hours 👍👍 Easy foods for me are pot noodles, super noodle now do pot noodles you just add water lol. Tea and biscuits, big soup, all day breakfast in a tin, it tastes rubbish but it will do for fishing 😂 I can’t be bothered with the cleaning up anymore so just try to cook everything with a kettle or the 1 saucepan or frying pan 😂😂

I’ll be wearing the spf 50 today 😆 was driving yesterday and burnt my arm from just having it on the edge of the window. Now have to go into work with a white arm and a red arm 😂😂😂

I get what you are saying mate I don’t fish snags anyway, a lot of the waters I fish you ain’t allowed to use them, I guess like you say people using them to put baits where they shouldn’t be. I want one for a little pond I fish, the island has overgrown and you can’t get a lead to it without hitting the trees that are over hanging (not into the water) and if you start doing several casts to get it right you will spook the fish out of the swim and they won’t return for ages lol. a 11m baiting pole might do it from a couple swims but might as well spend the extra and get a boat, I think I will enjoy using it too 😆 but yeah it’s not for all my fishing, just for the tricky pond I sometimes fish 👍

Whatever floats your boat mate. I won’t lose any sleep over using one or the merit of capture. I enjoy catching carp and will use anything I can to help me catch more 😀

Been doing 12 hour shifts from 4.30am each day this week, feeling it pretty bad since I’ve been out of work since January 😭😂 will have enough wedge to buy a nice bait boat and some bait when I get paid 😆 😂

I’ll admit mine is spoilt rotten and has the run of the house, I’m glad I’m not alone 👍😂. I’m for ever buying new treats and toys 😂 Fair play mate I wish you the best of luck they look so cute 😆😂, I doubt I will get a puppy again they are too much for me 😂😂 mine was the spawn of Satan when it was a puppy, it would give you a nip, you say ouch and it would get even more excited and nip even more/harder 😂😂😂 thankfully it’s mellowed out now but the first 6 months were pure chaos 😂 it had all the toys, I spent ages playing with her but she would still wreck stuff, steal shoes or socks when you weren’t looking and chew holes in them 😂 has yours started the puppy nipping/ biting yet? 😆

Not sure what they are selling these days, but check out cyprinus, they do some awesome stuff at really good prices. I got a cyprinus fast and light system from them which is actually the Aqua fast and light, even turned up in the Aqua box lol. Amazing system, it’s all I use these days. If you can get your hands on one I would highly recommend it 👍

Good luck with 2 puppies at once mate one is a handful 😂😂 I remember someone speaking about litter mate syndrome, apparently it’s quite common when you get two from the same litter lol might be worth reading in to 👍 I can still remember the first night, I was told to let the puppy cry it out, by midnight I couldn’t take it anymore and went to see to her only to find her to have crapped in the crate and get covered in it. I had to give her a bath in the middle of the night 😂 since then she just stays on the end of the bed 😂

Do you prefer to fish a matching pop up to the free fed boilies or do you go for something different?

Kind of wish I did now 😂 the hangover ain’t too bad but deffo should of went fishing instead 😂

Had a walk around my local pond, seen these beauties and no one fishing. Might grab the rods and listen to the football on the radio instead of pub 😆😂

I think you get two types of anglers on the water. Ones that do laps of the lake, constantly watching the water, willing to move onto fish in the middle of the night because they’ve heard them crashing on the other side of the lake. Then you get the ones who want to bivvy up, put a bed of bait out and wait for the fish to move onto the bait then sit in the bivvy for the day, playing on the phones/reading books etc. I find the ones who are watching the water all day, putting in the hard work usually do a lot better 👍

So this morning I set my Fox Royale Classic bivvy up to take some pictures of it to list on gumtree. Upon packing away I instantly remembered why I never use it 😂😂 its bordering on impossible to fold up 🤷‍♂️Not sure if it’s because it’s a pram hood design but it’s a pain in the ass 😂 managed to get packed away, good luck to the new owner😂 anyone else used one before or have this trouble??

Cracking fish mate I know right, some of the places they fish is amazing. sane, I think it will be interesting to see what happens in the future 👍

Their enthusiasm always puts me in the mood to go fishing 👍😂 the guy jumping up and down when he netted the carp for Ali was spot on 😂😂😂

Its very annoying mate 😂 when I had the take I was using the less is more approach, I was fishing the bottom bait with 4 boilies around it. I’m gonna try singles next time 👍

It’s making me question everything mate. Same bait and the day before when I had a take, sticky krill. I know it works. I had the fish in front of me last night I seen several carp, just don’t understand why they didn’t get their heads down. my baits are going on some hard spots, about a foot off the island. I’m wondering if it’s because I’m not getting it close enough.. bait boat would help 👍😂 Then in questioning the rigs I’m using, I’ve recently made a change. I’ve been trying out a slip D rig with a bait screw. It was nailing the bream every time on res. If it’s hooking them well enough, shouldn’t be a problem hooking the carp? Might have to go back to the basic knotless knot rig for bottom baits and try that again lol

Fished until 11 last night...blank 😭 thinking about buying one of them bait boats with sonar on it 😂😂 COVID jab has made me feel well rough today, headache, whole body is stiff/aching, feels like a got a bad cold 🤷‍♂️😂

I was watching the Korda lads the other day and they were crimping the swivel to have a running lead clip setup with the spinner rig, watching your video has now made me wonder if they’ve had any swivels break on them because of crimping 🤔🤔

Yeah mate when I had my first jab my arm was pretty soar for a few days. The jab I had this morning I didn’t even feel the needle go in, couple hours later on starting to get a dead arm feeling. 😂 fished for 3 hours this morning fish didn’t want to know, all basking on the surface, so came home for a few hours and will go back about 5ish. Yesterday evening seemed like bite time, the lad next swim down from me had 2 while I was fishing so will try the same time again today 👍

Cheers mate I ended up using a back to back grinner knot, it did the job but I’ll check the one you posted 👍👍
