commonly Posted January 5, 2023 Report Share Posted January 5, 2023 Full moon too! I really wanted to, but the Mrs is training this weekend, so no can do. Went out last week, blanked. The wind was making 1ft waves across the reservoir, thought the bivvy was going to take off a few times. Maybe next time jh92 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carpbell3 Posted January 8, 2023 Report Share Posted January 8, 2023 Not even thought about getting out, making bait has gone the way of dirty bath water looks like if I do get out this year it will just be a few local lakes Think I will go with shop bought bait just haven't got the interest to start making my own, been ill as a pig with that cold, lost a stone in weight in the space of a week. Really was looking forward to picking out a good lake and doing a regular baiting campaign maybe next year lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carpbell3 Posted January 12, 2023 Report Share Posted January 12, 2023 OK, so I may just call into KWP today see how things are for a season ticket on pine pool bit of afternoon fishing plus will be keeping my Ecton clover for overnight. Been keeping an eye on the likes of bluebell mallard for a early session around late February be either there or Norton Disney. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jh92 Posted January 16, 2023 Report Share Posted January 16, 2023 So I've gone into the shed to start putting up some more racking, a bottle of squid liquid has cracked and leaked all over my gear and the floor. It happened a while back by the looks of it and has seeped into the fabrics 😭😭😭😭 elmoputney and B B 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

commonly Posted February 1, 2023 Report Share Posted February 1, 2023 So, I lost my dad today. Knew it was coming, old buggar kept going for a few more months than was expected. Heavy drinker and smoker. Liver packed up, blah, blah! I didn't think it would bother me, but when I look back, the good times were few and far between. He took me fishing for the first time and I will always remember that, fondly. Not that he was an angler. I got into it and he was wasn't, always too busy at work to go, etc. So, I suppose I have to be grateful for the introduction to one of my few passions in life. Life is for living and none of us know how long we have??? I recently dug out a post from 2019 when life was kind of normal, Carp.Com social@ horseshoe lake. It would be good to have an event to look forward to, so I ask the regulars, are you up for a social? Enjoy gents, best wishes to you and your families Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

commonly Posted February 2, 2023 Report Share Posted February 2, 2023 Thanks Elmo, it was an end to his decline. He had a very good life, as did most baby boomers. [censored]ed it all up the wall though😏 As they say, it's the only thing that you can be certain, will happen to everyone! The trouble in 2019 was not many people were up for it and tying up dates. That's why I thought I'd try earlier in the year. All help gratefully received mate, I'm hoping someone with a bit more authority than me would get involved? I'm just an average member, (excuse the pun!) elmoputney 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully you can just think of the good times, if you think you need to talk about things though just talk to someone it is better to get it out your system. Hopefully we can sort something out I'm sure others would be interested too if we got a venue and got the ball rolling a bit found a nice venue and that I did see an embryo one that could be booked exclusively which looked alright Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
