Carpbell_ll

watched it last night makes you want to get out

That's a nope for ben and sam, gutted about that could of had a lovely pair of dogs there, they were right, would love to know where they came from, deff british or irish. So i won't be spent out this side of the new year, wonder if WL will take my deposit, don't think i will be getting Murle, any other mix i'd be fine with but i meet a lot of serious pet terrier keepers when out, might get the odd frown.

lol, know some of the parents and grandparents of those lads one of my rele's houses is in the pic, that poor copper he just wants to get out of there, the lads little homies have got him in a pit maneuver. 😆 You can see it;s a nice keepet estate the kids can be a bit boisterous tis all.

That's how pitiful my tackle was back then they left it one of the rods was a custom float rod had the canal at the end of the street, it was my dads house but he was hardly there be out on his boat or at his mrs, we had a flat in hillfields before that never got a touch and i used to run that place like fagans hang out 🥳

Wouldn't of had you for a new age music kind of guy GP. Bit of sunday smooth golden oldies seems to be having a bit new found popularity, Lord Roy.

I keep all my gear in the house bar the nets and mat not risking it and i live in a low crime area these days, got robbed years back a house break in when i was living in a old two up two down in the city centre, very strange, got up in the morning early and i would put the telly on just the news in the background, that morning i was stood in front of where the telly would of been and nothing is registering for a good 30 seconds also emptied my fridge and bathroom stuff, missed the 30 quid cash and a quarter of hash i had in a draw in the living room, amutrers., too scared to put a light on.

Otters are very lazy they are big cute rats there only downside is they like to play rough, the ones in Alaska keep the fish cannery workers entertained. plus given a choice between fish or poultry i imagine it's xmas every meal time for most otters. Think that what might be how i upset the gaffer on the day he rang me up being all civil servant, i had texted him earlier in the day to say i had seen the mink and it was off murdering stuff in the bushes, went off at me like i was offering to put a dog in there... just saying.

As menched in another thread i have been half offered a jack x merle collie pup i'm not sure on crossing a jack with a merle dog it' goes against everything a jack is i can see the attraction as they are a nice dog but just don't know? still hoping DT come through with the two pups.

LOL, who knew i had a book in me just banged out three chapters of a comedy novel i keep threatening to write, i was pleasantly shocked by my proof readers reaction, they were wetting themselves laughing, i'm just working on a hooker character i would love to add, based on a real person, proper wild woman, i know of guys that have been to see her and upon getting in and seeing the state they pay up and leave she really is nasty but so are the blokes that call in, she don't wash or shower for weeks at a time, it is what she offers saddleless cheap as chips. It's a mix of different characters i have meet over the years, going back to when i was picture selling for the travelers to my time at the hostel as a amuture social worker, i could fill a book with the goings on in that place. It has murders, sex, drugs, all set in rural england the book is aimed at female readers , all names have been slightly changed to protect my pitiful bank balance, might finish it as a short and publish as a free to read on-line book, sod it if shelly can do it so can I, yes there is carp angling in it too but i'm hoping it will be more a character non anglers could understand without too much actual angling background. we will see. So far it reads like a neive lad from the shires visiting the modern world, with a solid theme with which i can add different highly exaggerated characters. Still nothing from Dogs trust it's the last time i try if i don't get ben and sam i'v been offered a Jack x merle collie pup be ready mid jan. 😎

Good way to avoid bird problems is to join a syndi that shoots them or allows a team of non native mink to stay on the lake and deal with those that can't be shot. bit of a sad trade off to see all that seasons cygnets and moorhens killed but at least you can bait the margins. they also put handy traps out here and there, they don't mind bending the rules a little to keep us anglers catching. Spod mix is ok but i have found if you are only fishing for single bites and not feeding, a few pellets and boilies work best spod mix is something you would want to use when you are putting it out all day regular Not saying carp are clever animals more fussy they like what they want and if they don't want a big dinner it could be that that sends them off to the other end of the lake, funny sods.

While i'm on wheels, spoke deleting as it's called, people really do that or is it one of those only if your stupid enough things, seems to be popular with scooby owners, bet if the wheels came minus one spoke pattern they would add it.

Rolling like a G... wheels... i prefer steel wheels 💤

next contenders don't hold much hope of getting these have offered to home both dogs as i have before from DT they are up in Newcastle offered to pick them up at the end of this month, they seem to of gone a bit quite since i turned dave down, he needs a single adult home that can keep him in his place i think if i did that he would look for someone else to push around. https://www.dogstrust.org.uk/rehoming/dogs/dog/1251911/sam?fbclid=IwAR0ijLrGVYHR3-LMlvsF1-eF3p4eROxe0WMcXvVKGSsZALV6HcR7on8N7LI https://www.dogstrust.org.uk/rehoming/dogs/dog/1251910/ben?fbclid=IwAR0JnSJ8wRubYdZ6wAel6u3zLDluroMxZtRov4Qw6u40EVHHbNe_RBQUqqM

Already have two syndi tickets in the pipeline for next year both with in lockdown rules travel distance and i could easily get on a third which i have been offered a ticket for in the past. then there's KWP, just waiting till the new year before dropping the hammer due to having other obligations that come first. The numbers of anglers getting out over the next few years will be on a steady decline due to a serious change in economics and the value of money in return for goods, then there is the popularity of carp angling reached it's peak a few years back and is now on a deline, most fishery owners have based their business model on the economics of 20 years back, it's a bit like £ shops there were expanding up until 5 years back then they closed stacks of branches as they knew it wasn't going to work in the coming change in world economics, my friendly advice to lake owners would be to get as many local guys on the lake as poss.

Talking of complimentss he does give them out turned up last year full lock down look trust me it's proper charles manson a few of the lad were like wow you need a hair cut and shave, next time i turned up it was SBS and clean shave, chris let me know he preferred that look.

I've still got the txt convo and he ain't got that kind of pull plus i will get him blacklisted for being a fascist that likes to verbally abuse those with health conditions then follows it up with a poop fit when told to do one.

Oh my giddy ear, he is now moaning on FB never said the fishery was poop after getting turned down, he may as well just give me a ticket seems i'm living rent free in is noggin' ... jilted carp angler indeed. 🕵️‍♀️

I knew Highy would have a few 😎

Think if you clash with the wrong people it can go against you, me and the guy that fell out over the peg he never did get over it ex doorman likes to be real loud gets a bit whiny if you don't bring your rods in for a few hours out of bite time he even said he was gonna moan me of the lakes or blackballed as he calls it, wonder if his nick went round the lakes, deffo would of chinned me if he heard that one.

Wozza must of really chuffed bazza off just got a cheque in the post really don't want me on there come spring ?? i ain't been near the place since august/september sod knows what's up with him the moody git. literally haven't spoke to the guy since summer. Nigewoodcock i see you run a nifty little syndicate ... just saying like 😇

finally got a smart metre fitted as had been putting it off, pretty good i can see what's using what in watts definitely need a new kettle i was shocked when the metre shot up in to the red, due to it being a fast boil it is high wattage think they are around 3000 watts which is the limit for a domestic plug, noticed it takes longer to boil than when it was new so it is now a high power slow boil, thinking of getting a urn but it's a no so far. Price of gas is mental this year i only have the hot water and heating on gas the people at insulate Britain will be happy to know my house is well insulated they need not glue there faces to the roads on my behalf.

pulling pic one for the older guys to show the ladies what's what this season. post em if you got em don't be humble there really is no reason to be. We could knock up a carp.com calendar would have to put Highy on the cover or it will never sell. Merry Xmas 🤠

been a Bob Dylan weekend

Going on a bit but.. the real rub is i got offered a winter ticket on a water in Warwickshire just back in September most will of never heard of it it a small-ish local lake run by anglers proper out in the sticks, had to turn it down due to funds and already having a ticket i don't really use in the winter, i knew i should of took it i would be in for next year guaranteed. luckily i explained my money position and already having a ticket i still would be keen for a full ticket next year, he did get back and thanked me for remembering i was on the list and how the wintre ticket worked and said i could get back to him in January for the back end of the winter, if a place is available.

I know you's are loling, bunch of lily lungs that fear the bong tis all
