I doubt it i think the yeast is used in place of a bird food and similar, imainline use it in baits as well, i'm sure one of the bait dudes on ere could give more of an insight into yeast baits

Saying that looks like they are open and selling their bait again https://pyramidbaits.wixsite.com/mysite/main

The company it self is a bit here and there they are on the same trading estate as Cov Carp Baits, sometimes they are open but a lot of the time unit is closed. they was getting bait into shops a few years back, then it all came to a stop, i've a feeling he is just rolling for other companies these days if doing anything at all. Never fancied them myself think it was a yeast based bait with fishmeal?

Wouldn't worry about it if the worse did happen the company would soon find out a worker can't sign away their H&S rights in fact that would help prove liability.

Depends on the test curve of the rods you are using, if your rods are 3lb TC a lead between 2-4 oz would be ideal anything more would bottom the rod out, anything less will not load the correct tension in the rod leading to more violent jolting takes and pulled hooks if the rods are on the stiff side.

I already had the pads priced and in stock a five min drive away motor factors all over the place around here, just need the tool to rewind the caliper back and give it a clean up once they are sticking you need to clear the gunk out.

Nice to see there are still conman mobile mechanics about, had a sticky-seized rear caliper, could do it myself but rang a guy to see what he wanted, 70 to 90 quid he says over the phone, ok call out, he arrives looks at the sticking side and says it's not the caliper the pads have gone, ( they tend to wear when stuck i thought ) check the other side i said, he has a look and says yeap just the same. No, i thought they are not, i let him carry on, he says, just need a set off pads fitting mate, ok i say do want to order them or shall i get a set dropped over? no mate he says order a set online and i will fit them when you call. Ok i say, then he tried to charge me a large call out fee, lol, no mate either fit the pads and sort the calipars now as i don't pay for a call out fee when the job is there if you want it. he would sooner walk away. I went to a brake place, and as i said one side had stuck and worn the pads the other side was fine, just put new pads and disks on both sides did a oil and filter change while on the ramps and got mates rates, well free oil.

Sounds like you need to get a handle on the woman, drop a few hints that you and a few work mates are thinking of doing a lads weekend in Amsterdam next year, she will have no problems with you spending up your spare time on fishing. I take it most of you guy's ladies don't read the carp forum either? Great stuff on the catch, it's an eye opener on the regular baiting approach, i daren't try, if i was to turn up and the swim wasn't free i can't be sure of my reaction, could be one of those bad decision in an instant moments. plus it's a 100 mile round trip not what i call local, have been dropping hints of a move to Wellingborough on a home exchange but she is having none of it.

I'm going to have a tinker on Thursday when i re-do my rods, Just putting this out there...

Nice one, always on the look out for new bait dedicated additives to add to my crumb mix liquids and powders are working well for me at the mo, i used salmon hydro and garlic plus the usual mix worked nice was even making me hungry.

No advice on how to approach the beastie before i start undoing screws, going to try to adjust the screw at the back see if it will tighten things up, got the rear drag on full lock it was giving line when reeling in.

Love the look of the Dynamite groundbaits hate the price, nearly a fiver for a small bag, i'll stick to the crumb and oats mix with added goodness. Hmm Crumb & Oats has a ring to it groundbait for the man-eaters, ha ha .

Anyone know how to fix a slipping clutch on a baitrunner ST, it is giving line even when reeling in a bit of weed it is no longer safe for fishing unless there is a nut or something i can tighten? not worth paying for a service, couple of old RE Areo on gumtree could be a quick replacement for 20-30 notes, would sooner fix this one for now though. That last fish i had this week seems to of finished it off.

Should try council repairs these days, that many contractors they have a number of valves on a simple shower pipe each one is a different contractors turf, ever seen the film Brazil?

Always thought the US could be a world renowned wild carp venue for those that have the money or means to travel not much in the way of chunky mirror carp but their must be a few big commons knocking about, MacArthur park in LA did a 50 common and that place is very urban lol one for the Nash team to visit😆

The method feeder was allowed on most waters as it was used for low doubles mainly, it was the threading of elastic into braid for a bigger fish rig that seen the elastic method feeder banned. think it was one of those rigs that looked good to the angler.

Told today that Canal pool on KWP has been losing fish to Otters, one of the mid 30's that was moved from swan a few years back was found a few months back, that was one of a few fish that had the very weedy swan lake all to themselves, i doubt an otter could touch them in swan due to the dense weed and one real strong undertow shifting it all about.

If you like 😀 no plugs thread... no it's Coventry Carp Baits, they are a bait rolling company that do stuff to order as well as their own in-house bait. That fish is from a carp water called Goslawice? looks like a nice water, just wondering what the typical mirror carp of Poland would be if there is such a thing, What would the UK have that is a comparable breed line, Simmo, Dinton, lennys, that sort of thing.

Few guys that are on the bait team at CCB are over in Poland and i got to say i am liking the mirrors they are catching, got that bulky muscle look to them with out being too torpedo shaped. There are a few like the one above is that what would be called a Polish carp found in most waters in Poland? No this ain't a plug for my bait, i just like the big leathery belly draggier carp.

Just a thought on the elastic rigs might want to run it past the lake owner most places will kick you off for using such a rig, they were popular back in the 90s as an adaption of the method rig, most waters that seen them banned them even today's method feeders no longer have the laggy band.

Only ever fished it a few times as a kid, it holds a lot of local rumor and legend, think they allow parking on the lindley bank these days as car vandalism has always been a problem. Some are saying it is living on a different little ponds that the Sowe fills, probably eating scraps and dropped kebabs.

Coombe could be a gold mine, if they would open the whole lake to anglers lots of big Zander Pike Bream and known 40 lb carp with plenty of rumors of bigger, like a cat that is over the 100lb range, pinch of salt with that one.

See Coomb Abbey has not put any otter fencing up that little river connects up with the big lake some old fish in there plus they have never really added to the carp stock some are 40 years old or more. Thought they might be about when Hopsford hall put a fence up, not like a farmer to spend money for no reason.

Too small a lake for that and it gets a good amount of bait going in most days this time of year, it's more of a fishing on the patrol routes they take and trying to get one or two to have a quick belly full swim.

Preconceived ideas are hard to ignore once you have one rattling around, i have one brewing after looking around an empty peg the other day gives access to a margin spot between two islands, i reckon i might give a go for the next few sessions, just means walking past the more favoured pegs if they are empty.
