Go prepared and enjoy!! Lucky [censored], trying to get a pass for mid Feb

I've got the Chub all in one, too warm really, not often had to use it, but nice to have it just on case

Ask @Highy to have a look in his cupboard, I bet he's got one kicking around somewhere

Let me guess you found them in your wardrobe, when you were getting your selfie stick out!! Have you got any old video players in there Del ??

I've done well and know others that have caught some of the lakes more desirable fish, very shortly after the thaw

I can see why you wouldn't use it on your normal water!! Lol As you said it served its purpose, nice

Isn't that the £25 one?? Fair play

I am looking at the same one. Same questions. a few weeks ago on thread bait boat. In tackle Got to be worth a try. No one on here has got one...... Yet. Not alot of venues allow them, so not really a popular talking point I guess

The river Test runs through Colden Common, fondly remember having a few trout on free lined bread, many years ago. Not so sure if there's otters present nowadays?? I wasn't into carp fishing back then, but there must be some amazing waters in the New Forest??

I know there's lakeside by the airport, not fished it in 20 odd years, but should holds few gems. Also, near there, a friend told me of a place behind Eastleigh football, which I'm sure was a Syndi. Not sure if we've already covered it but Broadlands, Romsey on m27??I know they've held carp championship there a few years back. Not sure if they had KHV??

We could do with a bit of banter or something?? I started a thread about a mates stag do, 320 views, not a single comment from anyone about anything??? I mean some howler moments must of happened on stags, classic & unique stitch ups!! No one cared to mention???

Mainly just what @Highy newest purchase

Careful you might get put on the naughty step. 😂

Big common left too!

What a flip about! We are now on New Pepper, Cottington. Anyone been ???

Has anyone on here been there?? Booked for my mates stag in April

Well the otters are robbing us of our quarry. Current state of our great government, by the time it gets agreed all the fish will be gone anyway!!! I hope fishery owners take reasonable steps to manage this pest. What wiped them out before?? Do it again?

Why not start a petition for lethal means of control?? Surely there's more fishermen than tree huggers??

I can't believe that only 12,000 people signed the petition to government to consider a cull. We need to get 100,000 Does this government realise, the amount of revenue from carping alone! Fisheries are a business & its hard enough, without the risk & high probability of loosing the stock that gets anglers on the bank. I feel most are likely to close, forcing massive price increases, to the reminder & so as usual, the wealthy can carry on regardless, whilst common folk can go love themselves! Something has to be done?? I don't buy this whole nature will balance out with the top predator now flourishing poo that is wheeled out by the tree huggers & government

Numbers have increased to around 10 anglers so looking for somewhere a bit bigger now, if anyone has any suggestions please

Pooh!! Just found this https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/209735

Let's start a petition to get something done about this lads! I'm not on Facebook or the others, but surely if we pool resources we can get 100,000 names. If not for us, then our kids & theirs!

Still looking!!!

Nip down m3, sandhurst, yately. Not sure, but what about the Wraysbury lakes. Haven't been there for 30 years, but I'm sure there is a few reservoirs near there too

Let us know how you get on with them buddy? Soddit, I'm not a fan of barbless, but I may as well try them myself!!
