Scuse my ignorance here lads but how do you 'deliberately' foul hook em?? Must be near the top I guess??

A percent of the national record as Steve suggested. That has to be the only way, otherwise it’s all down to the opinion of the person in which case there was no point asking the question!! You can’t claim a 5lb carp is a big fish just cos the rest are 3lb. It may be a ‘big fish for the water’ but a ‘big fish’ per se no way hose (ho say that is!!!!)

Don't worry - it only hurts when you hit the ground

Yeh that was funny!

Your soul is worth £25575. For your peace of mind, 38% of people have a purer soul than you. Anyone want to buy it??

Bladerunner - Rutger Hauer saying:- "I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate. All those moments will be lost in time - like tears in rain. Time to die. " Fantastic stuff!!

Sorry Alan, never got round to it!! I may do some time and will post back but don't hold your breath! Cheers. Roger.

Careful or you will have the Daily mail going on about the poor persecuted motorist!!

Thanks Apache, but she has decided that maybe a Vet is a step too far. What effect on career potential would having ‘Applied Science’ have instead of Biology? Cheers. Roger.

Hi All, Can anyone help with this please? One of my daughters (age 14) has decided she would like a career working with animals. She knows her science is probably not good enough to be a vet but doesn’t really know exactly what she would like to do anyway. At School (year 10) she has been put on ‘Applied Science’ course and is worried that could work against her. For example should she be doing biology? She just wants to keep her options open. We will have a look on the Net but I wondered if anyone here could help. Cheers. Roger.

How can you sleep in the rain and not get wet? I mean even with a pull cord at the top some will still get in??? I'm asking this from a position af absolute ignorance!!!

Seems ok now :confused:

Try this site AnswersThatWork. It has an excellent Task List section that tells you what all the programs that run behind the scenes in Windows actually do, and whether they are really needed or not. The statement for ccapp.exe is underneath which confirms what Tony has already stated. Regards. Roger. ccapp.exe:- Symantec’s Common Client Application for Norton AntiVirus 2003, Norton Personal Firewall 2003, and Norton Internet Security 2003. This task is, effectively, the "master" task in these products as its role is to call the different program features of the above products. For example, if Auto-Protect and E-mail Scanning are enabled, then CCAPP makes sure that those programs are running. If CCAPP is disabled, then Auto-Protect and Email Scanning will not run. Recommendation : Leave well alone – this task is crucial to the proper working of your Norton 2003 security product. We recommend, however, that you do a manual LiveUpdate at least once a week as, at the time of writing (10-Dec-2002), we have experienced a few irritating problems with the 2003 edition of the above Norton products, and Symantec seem to be fixing things every week (via LiveUpdate updates).

The Forum link (top left corner of home page URL http://anglers-net.co.uk/cgi-bin/ubb/ultimatebb.cgi) is giving me "The page cannot be displayed". Managed to get here by going in the Coarse Forum and back to Forums from there. Same URL though (http://www.anglers-net.co.uk/ubb/ultimatebb.php). Could it be me??? Hang on a minute - the links are different!! Roger.

Its all right you've got away with it this time - you little tinca!

Just thought I would let you know that Maver replaced the broken middle section free of charge. Many thanks to Maver and my local tackle shop – Yeovil and District Angling Centre. Cheers. Roger.

Alan, Try MajorGeeks They seem to have a couple of checkers, one does web pages - ideal for AN. Might try it myself. All the best. Roger.

What’s going all the way? Roger (48)

I asked about this in another thread and though I would like to try a multiplier I was put off but the fact that I could not use it with my current feeder rods because they are not designed to be used with the reel on top. I never quite understood why the reel had to be on top though. :confused:

John, the willpower gets easier when you have sat there for several hours having struck a thousand times but not caught a fish!! Great fun but experience will teach you to wait. Cheers. Roger.

When fishing once I remember looking down to see a double figure Carp sizing up a lovely lump of bread that I had accidentally dropped in by my peg. The bread had drifted to about 6’ away from me. The Carp was about 6” below the bread and over the space of about 5 minutes it got to about 2”. Next time I looked the Carp had gone and the bread was still there - and it was a freebie!! I guess it could see me and instinct (or do Carp think???) said the risk wasn’t worth it! Cheers. Roger.

Thanks for the replies, but I don’t think I made it clear what I am trying to do. What I meant by compilation was not copy one 'compilation' CD onto another CD, but collect tracks from many different CD’s and put them on one CD. I know how to do this with MP3’s and WAV’s etc, but I need to be able to do this keeping the native format so that it will play on the player in my 4 year old motor that can’t do MP3’s. Cheers. Roger.

Hi All, My daughters want me to make a compilation CD for the car. The player in the car can’t do MP3’s so I guess I need to recreate the compilation using the native format but I can’t see how to do this. Presumably I need something that will make a copy to the PC for writing back to a writable CD in the native format. The only utilities I have tried (CDEX 1.50, EZCD Creator 4) will only allow me to write WAV’s or MP3’s back to the CD which I don’t think will work?? When I look at the original CD in W2K I just see a 1KB cda file. :confused: Can anyone give me a few pointers please before I make too many coasters? Cheers. Roger.

John, Ok, glad it was of use. To date I have not used the ledgered controller – that item was by Den. I would guess that you would have to watch the bait, but in my experience the Carp are so crafty that you will be striking at nothing most of the time. If you put a stop each side of the controller I guess you could watch the float. Regarding bite detection for general Zigging with a quiver, for me it is definitely through the quiver tip. Mind you have to sit on your hands sometimes with all the knocks the bait gets. Sometimes the rod just lurches round – you would probably get these whatever method of bite detection you use. Other times detection is far more subtle with the tip just going a couple of inches but holding. My father in law uses the same method as me but uses a stiffer rod pointing at the bait. He relies on “catching the rod before it goes in” for bite detection and I nearly always double the number of fish he gets! Not bragging – just a fact! Cheers. Roger.
