  3. Like you Newt, I have often wondered why people backwind with F/S reels. I started using F/S before they were fitted with full bail arms and it was fatal to backwind, indeed you always had to check that the line hadn't looped twice around the pickup claw. The chance of a loop of slack line building up worries me so I always use the clutch. Den

  5. Not realy Chris, seven of them will be asleep at the time. I have to confess that very many years ago a couple of mates and I used to work the corner of a large pit by casting one line across, tying the other's pike rig to it with cotton and then both would walk away from each other to enable the bait to be towed out as far as possible and HELD there, Den

    Ferret, don't quote me but I think that Dartford & District APS got a grant for disabled platforms, I have chucked out my old members book, but there must be at least one poster who has the address, Den

  10. I have a feeling that we will never know, but it may have been Mrs Elton. Any prizes for guessing who, Elton? Den

  14. Sorry Paul, didn't answer your question, you need to know the web address(URL) of the image and then click on the little IMAGE box, type in the url and it appears. At the risk of sounding smug (whats new you ask)first you have to post the pic on a website, BT give you space as do most ISPs. I downloaded BulletProof FTP for a free trial and it is a piece of cake to use. After you have sent it to the site log on and Right click the image and click properties and you get the URL. Hope that is not sounding to patronising but I do remember how frustrating it can be if you haven't done it before, Den

  16. Yeah, I have to admit that we were "poaching", for those not in the know, some of us started fishing on the wrong venue!. Tell you what though it was a cracking weirpool wasn't it? I bet if we had known, then we would have got pulled as soon as we cast out, I expect the owners,whose house overlooked the pool, thought we had bought tickets! Strange thing happened to me that day, I have used a hooktier for years, and like to think I can do it blindfold, but for some reason I forgot how to use it! As soon as I got home I got the gadget out again and did it first time! Also hooked a large (3.5lb) trout which went upstream under the Pipe bridge I was sitting on, most of the rod was out of sight up the pipe,... great fun. Den

    What a lovely progression of ideas, Lake, good,... bucket, even better,... you could even use the loo, wonder what would happen if the spool went round the bend! Fishingmad, you have a neutral line, it would probably sink if there were any ripples on the surface Den
