Hi, I started fishing a few years ago myself, what ype of fishing will you be doing? (float, feeder,etc) Also what will you primarily be fishing for?

thanks all, got some great help here. deffo going to look at getting one of those chairs and one of those carry alls

Probably will get a camping chair. Anyone got any ideas on a good, decent size fishing bag to keep my bait, hooks, line etc?

at the moment I have a chair/rucksack, a rod carrier and a net bag. This goes very well on a bus, which I have to use because it takes me 45 minutes to walk to my local fishery. I do need a new chair however because the one on my rucksack makes my back hurt after half a day. I need some ideas on how I could keep the handiness of my rucksack and have a good fishing chair with a back rest and it has to be able to be easily carried around on and off buses. By the way it doesn't have to be a chair rucksack cross breed by the way, in fact it would probably be best not having that, it would go easier on my back. Ok, congrats if you read all that and understood it! any ideas? Thanks

do French planes fire little white flags at the enemy?

If I was in charge of the country we wouldnt have anything to do with the UN or even the EU! I dont care if it would reduce imports! It would reduce the overly excessive immigration and would increase the Britishness in the country! These stupid multi country organisations are just trying to act like the group of "cool kids" that every school has, they think they are always right and always better than everyone else. GET BRITAIN OUT OF EVERYONE ELSES PROBLEMS! If the Yanks want to stick their noses in we dont have to aswell, let them do it, let them take all the blame when it leads to a full blow war!

Hello, I know this is off topic but does anyone own a shop or anything in Skelmersdale or ormskirk that I could get some part time work at weekends and school holidays? Thanks been looking for a job for ages, I know it's kind of off topic but I couldnt see a section of the forum for off topic things and it wasn't related to fishing politics so I just dumped it in here! Thanks in advance

gonna nip out into the shed now, see if theres been any escapees

He brought round an 8ft spinning rod with loads of lures! Gonna get out as soon as I can, might go over the weekend if I can find somewhere good on the liveprool side of the mersey Can you fish near the albert docks? If you can does anyone know what the fishing is like at this time of year? I will probably be using a lure unless I catch some mackerel within the size limit I'll take a cutting board and fillet that while fishing, between casts. Thanks for your help everyone!

I edited this post to nothing because it makes me look like a stupid fool, they arn't innocent, but they arn't guilty either, its us that moved them to this environment if you didn't see the post I edited to make this post, ignore and just think of me as a crazy person

What are you fishing on, a waggler, a feeder?

Hi, I always hold my fish at about chest height ( I'm kneeling near my hook removal area by the way, not stood up) with both hands underneath , one near the tail and one near the fin on it's side,space your fingers apart and smile oh yes and a man once told me to remember to hold its side fin in between one of your fingers, just so people can see it. As to how long you can safely keep it out of the water, I don't know. I generally only keep it out for maximum 3 minutes. to release it put it back in the landing net and lower it into the water, wait until it looks like it can keep itself upright and rotate your net so it can swim happily out , sorry if you already knew any of that.

My sisters boy friend is bring me round some fishing gear he never uses any more, he said I can just have it for free, he said theres a pole (I presume he means a rod) some line and box with a few things in. Deffo gonna get into this sea fishing though, probably go camping near the sea at some point and just fish all the time, keeping an eye on the tide though, my tent isnt that water proof Anyone know any good fishing spots on the liverpool side of the mersy? Thanks

thats acutally a good idea, I'll get myself a mini fridge, that way I can just go into town whenever I have time and pick up a pint or two of them, and then I should have a constant supply, without mother getting angry

it's very cool and the paint can on top of it should stop them from getting out

when I was fishing the other day I was set underneath my umbrella and I looked down to make sure non of my stuff had blown away, I then noticed a large number of the buggers squirming away from the box, they had pushed the lid that had me loosely put on and escaped, Theres still plenty of small holes in the lid of the maggi box still open though I think the warmed up maggots would be welcomed back as heroes! Thanks

I bought them on sunday, attempted to go fishing but got very cold and wet so I came home, I plan to go on thursday but will my maggots keep till then. They are being kept in a dark shed with a small paint tin on top to stop the little buggers escaping Thanks

I will probably be fishing from a beach or off some rocks on the Mersey estuary when I finally manage to get all my stuff together, dying to get into saltwater fishing though. What happens if you catch a cod, can you cook it and eat it or do you have to release it like in commercial coarse fishing? Also can somebody put up a basic rig for catching mackerel, gonna fish for mackerel first, had some good advice.

It's just really the tackle I have questions about, can I use my coarse reel, or are there specialised ones for sea fishing, also what's the deal with hooks, do I need sea fishing hooks or can I use coarse ones? thanks

Could anybody please advise me of a good website for an extreme beginner to sea fishing, I am a coarse fisherman and have been offered a look at some of my friends sea fishing gear he never uses, I would like a look at a guide to sea fishing before I even try to do it. Thanks

Taskers tackle in anfield is very good, but also a bit expensive!

sorry, forgot to look at the date, looking at some tips for firswood found this and got a bit angry, feel a bit stupid now
