    aplayer1983 got a reaction from elmoputney in What a waste...Nash Bore tool   
    I fish with a snowman most of my fishing and I have brought the Nash tool just simple because it will fit in my tackle box and believe it or not I have found it ot be softer so it does not split the boilie open as much. As I use 20mm bottom bait and a 16mm pop up I am boring out a lot of the bottom bait. I hate paying Carp tax but if somethings are better or more suited for Your fishing I will pay the extra money.

    aplayer1983 reacted to Essex carper! in Night fishing venue in Essex   
    I used to fish Cuttens a lot years ago on the specimen 1 lake and trust me it was not an easy lake but from people I spoke to I know that are some very good fish in the lake with fish of 30lb+ And a possible 40lb fish in the lake but the biggest carp I caught was 18.5lb however someone I used to fish with had carp too 28lb but as I said the lake was never an easy one to catch from,the complex also has two other lakes one is the match lake and the other is specimen 2 which by all accounts is a runs water!!! However I done a day on specimen 2 a couple of months ago and blanked but I did forget my Cell freezer bait and was forced to buy some shelf life boilies which I'm never very confident with myself so for me that was the reason i struggled and also it was the first time I had fished the specimen 2 lake.
    While I was there I spoke to the owner Neal who is always forthcoming with tactics,bait and any other info you may require and he told me that he had put another 100 carp into specimen1 since I'd last fished there and so it's not as hard as it used to be but then again he would probably say that but I will definitely be giving it another crack very soon as its a great looking lake,some people say the A12 is very noisy but to be honest after about an hour or so you don't even notice it,also there is a tackle shop on site which can be very handy when you forget your freezer bait like I did
