I tend to only go to Burton Mere. Which can get alot of kids there when the weather picks up. Also, it gets absolutely batter at the weekewnds with all the matches. How do I go about joining a club?

Elton, as a graphic designer, I can say its not that bad. I would have utilised the space around the 'A&N' with the words a bit more and as for the colours, everyone has there own taste. No probs for me though! Good un!

The boilies I use are reay mades. Isotinic Strawberry (Ithink?) So you reckon about 30secs eh? I'll give it a go. Ta

As a new Carp angler, is there any truth in, microwaving boilies to make pop ups? If so how long?

I'm gonna put new line on my reel before the Saturday's fishing session (providing England aren't playin!). Someone said soak it in a bucket of luke warm soapy water for the night? Are they winding me up?

I''ve been catching Tench and small carp on sweetcorn using a lead and a sharp eye on loose line flying out of my reel! I've tried foil on my line but would rather attach a bobbin of some sort. I'm interested in seeing what other anglers use. Ta.

I take it I won't need an electronic bite indicator? Does it just connect onto the line between the reel and the first eye on my rod?John 'BLOCK':I don't think you can go wrong with Solar bobbins they do a pack with two in to get you started.
i have added chunky chains and stainless ball clips just to make them a bit more robust and add some weight.I found the braided cord a bit suspect and with the chunky chain it will always allow the line to ping out no matter how tight to the clip.The Solar ones have a slot for an isotope or night light (nice to look at in the dark and good to indicate which way the fish is running)
Also the Fox swingers are very versatile and excellent for pike fishing as well as carp fishing..in fact i will probably get some when i go piking later on in the year..the good thing with the Fox ones is the feature enabling you to alter the tension on the line via a sliding weight and they are also very sturdy.
i have used a cork, a paper clip and a small leger weight before and that works just as well.
They are my favourites that i have looked at.
Good luck i'm sure you will find this site more than informative as well as unbiased regarding your questions.
