  1. You'd be better buying a leisure battery   they're designed for multiple charges   draw down and charge known as a cycle 

    Any leisure battery will have  finite number of cycles within its lifetime before it gives up the ghost  and it'll vary between makes 

     

    What amp battery you'll need will depend on what your motor actually draws from the battery   and for how long you think you'll be running the outboard itself

  2. Thursday is fine for the deep hole, will give you a call about first reserve or the other boat, whichever way it is, I'll be doing both days so its do I take a chance on the reserve list or confirm a booking on another boat for the Friday, off fishing tomorrow but will give you a call to see what's best

     

    Be seeing Sean and Nick as well so be good to catch up

  3. Its all described in the Mirror article, he recieves letters in braille print, when he had a girlfriend she opened and read ordinary type faced letters

     

    Things like this are happening to disabled folk up and down the length of the UK in the name of this coalition government and its attack based policies on the defenceless and weak, welcome to the reality that is UK PLC in 2014

  4. They don't , neither Newt nor Phone ,to the best of my knowledge, have fished the Swale, both live in the USA (clue's in the address under their avatar's) , they're both just being polite

     

    I fish mainly on the Tees but have fished Bradford no.1 waters as a guest and they're cracking waters and they have a lot of quality river and still water to go at, if I was looking to fish the Swale more, then I would join no.1 as it represents really good fishing, Middlesbrough also have some very good waters on the Swale too but I guess it all depends where you live, how far you want to travel to fish and accessability to bankside, how mobile you are and how far you're prepared to walk along the bankside

     

    Might help a bit too if you edited your details and said where you live

     

    Don't expect anyone to name venues on open forums as it leads to poaching problems, trespass issues, problems for the clubs who own or lease the fishing rights and more importantly some clubs have a disciplinary procedure for members who publicly name venues

     

    All I'll say publicly is that near to the village of Topcliffe you'll get as much quality fishing as you can handle by being a no.1 member

  5. Stop faffing about and join, BAA no.1 has some cracking waters on the swale with some very big specimen fish that you're after

     

    I'm not going to post on an open forum but they have lots of quality water too on the Nidd and Wharfe (I think)

  6. Problem with Avast, downloaded it from one of the hosts and it played havock with some sites, wouldn't let me reply on here and blocked access to my Hotmail account, uninstalled it and ran the usual sweeps and got rid of a couple of bugs that came with the download from the host site and downloaded Avast from another different host and bingo, no problem

  7. Andy, don't want to post this publicly, but when you have made a few more posts and can access the PM system, drop me a message so that I can contact you directly? ... happy to point you towards a couple of good, easily accessible spots that are rarely fished!

     

    You can pm the same info and I'll tell you if they get fished and if its heavy or light fishing traffic

     

    On the original subject most of the Tees free fishing is below Yarm town centre and includes the Yorkshire bank as the far bank Durham side is Yarm AA, if you can locate the fish you will do well but you need the right conditions to make them feed as right now they're tightly packed up in very localised areas which tend to be the deepest bits too, good fishing to be had but it isn't now, we need a bit of warmer water coming through as its been cold rain rather than warm entering the river system making for a poor winter, get the conditions right with a falling river, can have some colour in it and the dace will feed, can get 15/20lb bags of dace but that's the exception rather than the norm

     

    Give it another 5/6 weeks and it'll be easier to fish, if you go now then don't expect too much
