They are doubling up on me now, but I'm just about resisting 😢

Pure filth!! isn't that what the internet is for🤨🤔

Sorry I just struggle to concentrate on some of the content, 🤓with this targeted marketing!

Just to prove I'm not a complete politician!

Well my current one rhymes with witty. Your search history is very different to mine, clearly 🤭

Not a fan of the adverts popping up on this site, but occasionally there is an exception to the rule😛

Gutted! The man was clearly robbed, first time I've never watched the podium, etc. Every overtake was a late lunge, unsporting conduct, Schumacher mk2🤮

It's hard to get my good side (and never done a selfie) , so I'd just like to rule myself out for the calender. 😂

I couldn't of picked a worse 48hrs, got drowned setting up, everything was caked in mud. Still blanking my Harris off. At least it was dry this morning. Nice to get on the bank

I'm sure Highy will back me up when I say Sonik do reasonably priced decent RODS. Cork handle available. My 3rd rod (XTR 3.25tc) was snapped by a mate stuck in a tree 😭, other than that they've done all I've asked of them for 8 years. I am looking to change soon, to the shimano TX range, as much as anything to match my reels. Seem reasonably priced. I brought the TX spod rod last year and I'm very happy with that.

Not many day tickets interest me, but that lake has an appeal. There's a few gems in there, good luck BB

Looks nice there David. Good size common last night. I can't wait to get out next week for a 48. Best of luck mate 👍

White vane as far as I know has KHV, so give a wide berth. Never heard of woodmere?? Plenty of good syndicates in the area

I brought one of these instead of a telescopic rod. Sorry it's a dated version but they do a newer Tribal version in 4 piece https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/313680510015?hash=item4908d0bc3f:g:ZqQAAOSwvvhhJPyb Great bit of kit, fits nicely into a suitcase. I've had various size shimano reels on it, but go with the 10000 bait runners for a nice balance

Imo if it snaps between two pulling tools, it will definitely snap with an angry 20+. I do pull to near destruction for my own piece of mind. 3 turn blood knot on fluro hook link. Often I find different knots snap depending on the line material, so I keep trying different knots until I am happy that they won't give up on me I would put it under a lot more tension than most carp, I do still test them You get them in mate, so do what your comfortable with, it works for you.

If I can pull a rig apart, then it is not good enough. Agreed a 20lb+ fish will easily do the same. Not fish safe, if the hook link will be left in its mouth. I test each and every rig to near destruction.

Rigmarole do some good hook link material.

I'm not on facegram, but will get the missus to have a look. Thanks

Ice pack and lay flat my mate. Not nice, hope you are able to make it to the bank at some point

Every neighbours I've seen was woke up by him, peanut👌

Since when is it acceptable for a delivery driver to be hashing up turning around and having to listen to the reverse beeping for over 5 minutes, at 7.40 on a Sunday morning?? When I had had enough and went to see why, I was told foff!! I then felt the need to find out who he worked for and got offered out!! Even a guy I know in the next street down came and asked what was going on Now I not religious but these deliveries are hardly essential at that time on the weekend. Team know how! Know how to make it impossible to send a complaint. I'm registered to some American website and have warned loyalty points just to send them my complaint 🙄🤯

I had a little play the other weekend. No fish, but it was slow due to poor water quality. Something that looks so simple is actually tricky to get right. I had to tie a few before I was happy to put it out. What knot do you use to tie the hook carpepecheur? I don't often use Palomar knots, and didn't like the way it presented, so ended up with a queen blood knot. I used a wafter as referenced above, but found it moved along the hooklink upon return. So tied a figure of eight knot to help keep it in position. I will persevere with it on one rod next time out. (whenever that may be🙄)

From your responses, it would appear that you are untying the loops, Y? I use your described method and have never had any trouble. I do use 50lb leader, but I guess thinner braid would slip. Have you tried doubling (figure of 8) the smaller loop? It shouldn't slip then. I have that smaller loop at about 30-40mm as a tag.

Well I managed a quick overnighter at an estate lake. My van wasn't fixed in time😭 Water quality was really bad, they canceled the swimming of a triathlon there. My mate had a pasty and I had a bin lid. Gutted to miss the opportunity of 3 nights at the Res.
