Adam is a pleasant enough bloke it is a filler video though, not a enjoyable job all the time you could see that in a previous end tackle video, trying to talk up the unique selling points of lead clips, poor guy. bet he prefers doing these sort of videos. plus he always gets a pass from me, what a way to leave korda.

not sure what sweetner mainline use but it is strong and wrank very strong chemical preservative air to it.

i got the neoprene ones big mistake stay wet and getting them on fast is impossible, i do use them a lot though they are like the poor mans bait boat lol plus you don't get the whole cheating bit😙

hate to be a rod snob but unless you get something a bit special you will struggle to get twelve lb line to fish on most shop bought waggler rods the top eye ruins the line from friction goes fast as well, you would need to put a bigger tip ring on at least, a two piece carp rod would be useless as a float rod, not enough rings and you would need to let the fish hook itself or you will just bump the fish off most times, Harrison do a waggler rod made for low doubles up to twenties

two on the bottom one pooped up all on combis i used a new to me pop up arrangement recently nice and neat but a bit out the normal so keeping to myself as i don't think it would get a good review. but it makes casting a single hook bait on braid combis near tangle proof and well weighted before adding a little shot to the braid length,

i didn't even know about the 43 i thought the biggest was thirty seven, looks like pearly is on of the biggest in there these days the other lake has a good amount of forties in not many of the big ones coming out this summer, now that little lake has very little weed the bottom is getting a lot firmer, the amount of spots you can find is deceiving there are some lovely areas that should fish but they seem to attract the anglers more than the carp.

that one is putting weight on bet it would of been near forty a month ago not many come off the top in there. still a few photos of you on the board with fish a big common and a few others, the one i would like to catch, moonscale is around thirty to thirty two at last catch haven't heard of anyone seeing that in a while.

That was a net guess was a bit bigger, no only a mat shot and video, didn't fancy doing a hold photo get a bit twitchy whith the larger fish it's not nice when they kick off on the mat, if I had a tripod I would.

The little one

Ohhh got a little cracker in the net only around 12lb but what a fish full double sided linear. Get some proper photos of this one as it's only small but nice just getting light so no sleep for me I'm offski soon.

On luck always better to be a lucky angler than a good angler I don't know how but on most of the waters I have fished I do tend to get into the larger ones some of the fish I had out of pine pool where all one of a kind due to how old they are in there one of the few waters with proper black commons.

The lake I'm on is small but there are on six pegs all on one side of the lake you can't see anyone else it's like you always have the lake to yourself my perfect venue I can only do so long on open view waters these days where everyone is facing each other, does anoy me when newish angler's only got into carp fishing to chase chunks and quote numbers I got into carp fishing by accident went to get some pike tackle for the canal probably in mid summer that was malc rookers shop, I came out a carp angler... not my call I blame Malc.

Paul Whithouse and Bob Mortimer style and away video. The big un Small common Nice mirror mid 20 think that's some of the Dinton pastures fish?

Well both me and the fish like the Ecton Berry from Whacker Catcher really is on of those baits you just know will get scoffed. 4 fish so far one going to 35.9lb which I thought was close to the lake record but no, that's at 43, if anyone has my you tube page there are some short videos there are links in the Rolling Rounds thread, can't figure out how to copy links in with my phone. Should rename the Bait Whelly Berry, such a handy little unit order and pay, pick up when at the lake.

agree with blue, the only other option is a laundrette they have the oversize washers and dryers for quilts you would of had to of spilt a good glug of bait dip before going for that option though.

you are right in what you are saying and a good homemade bait will always out fish a retail bait the problems start on British waters mainly due to the choices the carp have they get the best bait, mountains of high grade freebies then there is the lakes own food which is what most larger carp mainly feed on, they really are spolit for choice, they become selective in what they will eat even when very hungry.

changing lead set up to a clip might help the heli don't give enough weight to the hook bait on the take, which shouldn't be a problem as it is one of the most popular set ups on the water my hooks are out the pack sharp and the rigs are fishing, i have been using ronnies mainly this year on a coated boom and fluorocarbon section, from here on in i'm trying large bottom baits on a basic hair rig just have the pop up on one rod. pellets and boilies only, i could do with neater rigs and presentation getting them feeding is never a problem getting a bite is real thin on the ground this year.

found a new bait company right on the doorstep of the lakes they have a unit up in the Leyland estate in Wellingborough they own ecton lakes and the bait recipes are the old mans a guy called Alan Taylor? had a bait out back in the day called the dogs'. after getting nowhere with the tigers and sweep never getting mainline parti tubs again real low quality. anyway, looked for a local tackle shop to find they have all closed due to ad opening up shop in Northampton, but did come up with whacker catcher so off i went and got some bait, nice guys let me buy from the unit out the blue did me two bags of ecton berry frozen and a tub of pop ups for twenty notes, only got to use them on the last day and the fish did like the bait the single beeps and shy bites started, i think i should be hitting more of the single beeps? still got the majority of the bait and will be getting more even had old Pete down he really liked the berry got a moorish scent to it. if you fish in the valley you can order and pay for your bait online and pick it up on your way to the lakes, more importantly the bait is fresh rolled the quality is one of the best i have found for rolled baits. https://whackercatcherproducts.co.uk/

i have half been waiting for reports of night anglers being robbed more often due to the increase in anglers and the amount of money the tackle is worth that story a while back where they were having hookers over could of been the start of some very nasty attacks on anglers, behaving like that justifies the actions of violent thieves.

can't wait to get out going for an early start to beat the heat, one rod will be a tiger pop up the other a home made pop up and a home made bottom bait on the third, also take some zig bits get all the tackle in the swim and go get some cold items and a bag of ice to go in the cool box with blocks it is an electric one you plug in the car but won't be near the car really so ice it is. pound a bag, lovely.

i'm going out, love it cold drinks cold food knap during the day and be up through out the night. no need for extra clothes still take my bag just sleep on top meant to get a mozzie net kind time of year the deet might come out, i take fifteen litres of water and get cold juice and fruit while there. i get in for a paddle if need be just sit next to the rods with my feet in the water.

Super market sweeps hook baits oats, gram flour, walnut, almond, tiger nut and corn, hemp milk, milk powder and honey plus the JB flavours and cream. Going to fish these with the matching mix.

nice update video from terry, do like his caster rig thought they were the fake casters on the hook? but says they are proper casters? that's a nice fish no messing out the margins, often wonder if pro anglers have to follow the rules strictly on waters, wouldn't mind a some leadcore for close in placed rods i couldn't use casters at the mo in numbers plus you would have to keep it to yourself they are on hold for the summer along with maggots, only for a few months if one or to anglers did well it would be all that goes in for the summer. just shows the cost of keeping even a small boat on the water if terry takes his home gutted i couldn't keep the old mans boat proper 32 foot narrow boat coal fire and 240 volt electrics he had it set up nice for longterm use.

amazon have loads of rechargeable power packs that do small fridges running a ice cooler would be no probs start at around 300.

will have to make do with john baker video on korda, he really has a sweet tooth bet his bank side munchies box is packed well.
