henda11, have you looked at the 'carp rigs' section on this website, (located on the left hand side of the screen). I first had a look at them when I started making rigs and found they were extremely helpful, still have a glance at them every now and then. Dan.

Yer I'm the same, can't get the link to work but would have loved to have read the original article. Dan.

Basically I think that if someone asks to see your licence then they should be open to show their authority/ID.

Dunno, look on a dictionary on the internet and see if it is there.

Just looked it up on google and options have come up including that wod so I guess soo. Never heard it myself though. Dan.

Thanks 'Cyranne12', I'll have a look around at the shops you listed above. I'll also look at the Nash range and all the others listed in this topic. Thanks to everyone who has replied. Dan.

Thanks Paul, I'll have a look at that now and see if I can get anything. Cheers, Dan.

Haha, very funny. But it did take me a bit of time to realise what it actually said!!! Oh well, on the footballing topic, I should keep quiet as my team have just lost 4-0 for the third time in a row!! If you follow football then it wont take a genius to work out who I support. Dan.

Thanks very much for your reply. I'll search on the internet and see if my personal taxi company (my mum and dad) can take me up there some time soon if I see anything I like... Cheers, Dan.

All, Can any of you give me a website where I can find a cheap medium sized carry all? Or a shop near Portsmouth, Hampshire. Any responses will be greatly appreciated. Tight Lines, Dan.

Ali, I also have just recently started feeder fishing. I was unsure about what size feeder to get and everything else connected to using feeders. I asked my mates about what they knew on the subject and then when buying the feeders the my local tackle shop asked what they would reccommend and then bought the ones I thought would be best given the information I'd been given. I can't remember what make they are but I got them because they looked like just the thing I wanted not the make. Dan.

Very nice fish mate. I agree with you that it is good to have a bend in the rod!!! Dan.

Oh ok thanks very much Lyn. Thanks to everyone else who has posted on here for helpng me clear up my question. Dan.

Hi Dave,I have only been fishing once in France and from that single experience and experience from speaking to other anglers and the little I do know is......The site I went to has a website: www.bestfrenchcarp.com , when I was there I got speaking to people who were on the private lake for a week and they said it was great. They had been going for years and kept going back!!!When you know what lake your going to do some research on it, ask on here and then email or get in contact with the lake owners and ask if there are rules like having to use their own pellets/baits etc.And on the bivvy topic, I'm not sure what the main differences are between these and tents but I think they are probably just more practical for the task.Dan.

Haha. Yer I'll be running down to the post office soon to get a new concessionary licence at the post office. Thanks everyone for all your replies. Many thanks and Tight Lines, Dan......

Yer I'm the same as Ollie, I have got an Okuma Interceptor and have been extremely happy with it ever since I have had it. Not one problem with it and half the price of other reels in the same area as that one. Tight Lines, Dan.

Thanks everyone for your replies. Devonian thanks for the extra confidence with my reel. Tight Lines, Dan.

Oh ok thanks. So I should just fish with my 'new' junior licence for the whole of next season and then get a new full adult licence for the next season. Many thanks, and if anyone can show me on a website where they found out the info that would be great thanks. Dan.

Thanks to everyone who has replied. I will leave this post for a few days and if then\ \i havent been given a clear answer then I will email the environment agency and ask them for the answer. Any further replies helping with my problem will be greatly appreciated. Tight Lines, Dan.

Yer I cant find it on the 'Environment Agency' website, I have been wondering this for a long time and now that it is time for me to get a new one then I thought I'd ask. Thanks Anderoo for your helpfull response. Dan.

Dear all, I am 15 at the moment, birthday in january, and obviously need to get a new licence soon. So at the moment am unsure what licence to get. What I need to know is what age does the junior licence go up to? Is it 16 or 18? Becuase I have asked others I know and have had varied answers. If I do need to get an adult licence, as I will turn 16 in the licence year could I get a junior licence up until my birthday and then not fish for the remaining two months?? Or just get the adult licence for the whole year? I am very confused on this subject... I've asked around with people I know fish and have had varied answers. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Dan.

Depends a bit on whether or not you will change lakes/change places you are fishing like not fishing in the near margins for 5lb to lower doubles to trying to catch high doubles.... So I agree with tigger with the 2lb TC. Dan.

Nice one!!! Always good to hear when people break their PB's. Tight Lines, Dan.

Good to hear, really nice chub there with a good looking mirror. Hopefully more (and bigger) fish to come in the coming year. Dan.

I haven't been there my self but have spoken to people that have and they have all said good things about the place. What fish are you going for; carp, trout of just general course fish?? Tight Lines. Dan.
