On the 9 acre lake as the one I normally fish is full lol. Found some fish fizzing in one of the bays, got 3 rods on a clear spot close to where I seen the fizzing 👍knowing my luck it will be bream but it's good to be out, lovely weather 👌

So what members are fishing? Can we get a little wager on who's gonna catch first 🤣

Yes mate I can't wait to get back there next week 👍 next on the list is a led light for my camera to take night shots 👍

Yeah mate buzzing with that, glad I stayed another night 👍

26lb 8oz at first light this morning 👌

Nice mate, is it heavy?

Yeah mate got some pots in with pins in with them, I wanted them so I could steam some chods on them but was worried about it doing the hook point lol

Another belter of a day, I'm gonna stay another night 👌

Off the bottom mate 👍 was a bit fresh 🤣

Just had this one at 24lb 4oz 👍

Traps set for another night 🤞 Might have to try a zig soon, they seem to be up on the surface cruising around at first light 🤔

No mate everything is frosted over 🤣 got ice on the inside of my bivvy, it's all starting to thaw out now, lovely 🤣

Feels like summer 🤷‍♂️☀️🤣

Back for a night or two 👌

Fair enough mate, sometimes it can be a software issue with apps, if you've already got it it might be worth checking. Else it's a hardware issue then a new device is needed lol 👍 Best of luck 👍

If the app isn't available from the app store, you can download the apk file online and install it that way, it might work even though your phone isn't supported

I think I will have to try if I go any shorter mate, I've sort of found the sweet spot for it now, if not on the first cast I'm getting it on the second attempt 👌 No carp on this trip, did a 6lb tench this morning that ripped off like a carp 🤣 I'm off there now until Sunday, so baited the spot with half a bucket of particle which will hopefully keep it clean lol. Got so much to learn on this complex, I'm currently on a lake of 4 acres with 150 carp and only fished one swim so far lol. The next lake I wanna get on is just under 9 with about 150 - 180 carp they reckon. But it has more weedbeds, lilies and snags lol.

I caught a tench yesterday, as I reset the rod, a high double/ possible 20 swam under the rod tips 💀🤣 and to top it off I had a hook pull on a carp this morning 😬 Thanks for the advice though mate, its been a massive learning curve tbh, over the last few years I've been mainly on the reservoirs fishing 20 - 25 wraps with 3 rods fanned out over quite a big area, now I'm fishing two at 5 wraps on a small spot, it's been a nightmare trying to hit the clip properly and keeping them close together lol. Really enjoying it though 👍

Last couple weeks haven't been great with high pressure and ne cold winds, it's been bitter lol, but the temps are starting to rise, we've got low pressure coming in with sw winds, great time to be out 👌🤣 I've only had 1 carp in the last 10 sessions this year lol

This is the stuff I'm dealing with, the Gardner rake done well, my spot is pretty clean now and getting a decent drop with the leads 👌 was only gonna clear/prebait it but gonna do the night now 🤣

Lidls cream liquor and condensed milk are two that I use 👍 also used evaporated milk in the past 👍

Thanks mate, if I don't get far with raking it with the Gardner rake and baiting particles at the end of each session, I will give it a try 👍👍 I've been quite lucky over the last month I've been able to get on the same swim fishing to the same spot, at first there was a bit of weed out there but I started baiting heavily with particles at the end of each session and now I'm starting to get a nice donk with the lead. But by the sounds of it using lime will be more efficient 🤣

A few bits 👍 Does anyone know if putting your hooks into these korda rig spools will mess the hook point up? They are designed for chods and are made of foam 👍

Would it make the spot unfishable for a few weeks, like once the lime is on the spot, would fish avoid it? I've been and got a Gardner weed rake to put on my spod rod to try 👍
