Take 10 points and sit at the top of the class! Totally correct..

well,after having a look about,Index included, we settled on a Ron Thompson 12ft 2lb t.c. rod, along with an Okuma freespool reel.At 120 quid for two rods/reels that will get him by for Pike and Tench not too bad I think..Thanks for the reply's lads...

Fantastic lights for your bivvy...or use 'em as a marker,superb..Go get one 1

Well the time has finally arrived,my 9 year year old is going "full time" and now it's time to get him his own tackle instead of using mine. what I have in mind for him is 2 x Shimano Hyperloops, 2 Okuma free spool reels.... Anyone point me in the direction of an online shop who has these,and who is cheeper than most... thanks guys.....

I stay away from diamond eyed swivels.When the knot is tied( even very carefully) and pressure is put on it,it strangles the line putting a lot of strain on a very small space.Result = broken line at the knot.Better going for round eyed swivels and put the line through the eye twice.This spreads out the force on the knot,making it far more reliable.. This also applies to any wire that is used for tying up pike traces... Alternatively use a palomar knot,100% reliable if tied properly....

I'll 4th that,their stuff is good. Mini hallibut pellets are fantastic....

If you are fishng Willi's ,the Tench in there have seen it all before..Try good aul cheese paste,the smellier the better.Or go for 10mm boilies,Tutti Frutti,or one of the fishmeals should see you catching....Tight ones...Des

Hi WTNB O.K.?????...anyway last time I heard,the N.I. Carp Society were looking to take over the Lough,and then I did hear that they will be,did take it over.They have been doing regular clean ups of the lake,much to the approval of the local residents.Fair play and good luck to them.The place used to look like a tip at times.I haven't been up in about 3 years,so can,t really give you up to the minute info on the lake.Why not go to their website and e-mail the secretary( there's a link on it for e-mailing)and ask him for more up to date information.Try Google for the website address.Sorry it is so scant,but have lost touch with the local info on Willis's...... :cool: :cool: :cool:

Puffffffffffffffffff.........Blowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm... :cool: can just smell it all now...Lurvely stuff..... nice shop by the way.....

Don't know too much about the sea fishing around here,BUT, I don't think you could go too far wrong by calling into Mc Kee's Tackle in Bangor.I'm sure if you asked you'll be swamped by info of good rock marks,charter boats,best baits,and tackle to use, etc etc...Hope this helps.......

3x Fox SX's red,blue,yellow.........45 quid each 3 Fox Hard Cases...........3.50 each 1x Fox SX Sounder Box....30 quid 1x Fox 3 way leads......5 quid WOULD PREFER IF SXs,Sounder Box and Cases,leads were sold together . 3xFox St's red,green,yellow..........35 quid each 1 Pair of solar 2 rod Buzz Bars (std)...10 quid All plus postage..... All are extremely well looked after and in A1 condition. P.M.or E-Mail for more details...........

Noddy Angler.... always fishes with a bloke with BIG ears!!!!!!!!

Specimen Angler...Angler who is always having a pee! Shark angler...Angler who lends money,and charges big interest!

We'll soon find out Alan,won't we?

Well,after nearly a years wait i'm off to Linear,in Oxfordshire for a weekends fishing.I really don't know what to expect, except water,fish,grass etc etc.I think the going may be tough fishing a pressured water,something I'm not too used to.Wish me luck,I Think may need it!!!!!!! :confused: :confused: :confused:

Need I say more?.Think not.Bobbyf is a clued up visitor to our shores.The sad thing is that it will continue,year in year out and sod all done about it no matter what the Pikers say,or Coarse anglers for that matter.Can you imagine if this behaviour was carried out by the E.A on the likes of The Trent,Stour,,Yately,or Conninbrook and the likes.

You lucky devils over there, wish we had 'em over 'ere.

Maybe I should have added to click on the picture on the main page,then view the other pictures,Hybrids,Tench and Pike strangled to death. And they call this management?..... :mad: :mad: :mad:

If any of you are thinking of visiting Ireland for your annual fishing holiday,particularly The Shannon region,I would suggest that you check out the web site of The Irish Pike Society, www.irishpikesociety.com and see just exactly what the Shannon Fisheries Board think of the very fish that you are traveling over to try and catch.I think you will be surprised, and totally disgusted. :mad: :mad: :mad:

Going to the Shannon?.Check out the web site of The Irish Pike Society, www.irishpikesociety.com and see just what the Shannon Fisheries Board are doing to the fish that you are paying your hard earned cash to try and catch!!! Disgusting is too polite a word for it!!!!!!!!! :mad: :mad: :mad:
