The link still points at the full size photo. Nice lookking fish. Newt

why use braid? cant see the point in it myself cost like £6 for a lil spool, mite aswell just buy a trace or thicker line? :S ... i use a wire trace and always catch pike... pb is 17'3 lbs... from river mersery but im always getting runs with my friends but they never have there reels set right so it just snaps them strait away lmao and i tell them how to have it and everything they just mess wif it! anywayz is any1 from warrington on here??

well my uncle and cuzen mix their own ground bait adding all sorts like hamster food, bread and adding loads of different liquidized things, but i normally just buy the bagged stuff and add water? lol could any 1 tell me which is beta and wat is good in a mix? thanks -topps-
