Molehill soil aslong as no dogs have pre watered it.

Hi if you ever solve this let me know, in 35 years of fishing i've never got comfortable fishing under a brolly.
The spike is as you say designed for soft ground, some baskets and chairs have attatchments to secure them to. Also the use of guy ropes in a breeze helps. Theres nothing wrong with laying it on its side as most often this will be the most secure way to keep it in place.
But in truth no matter how you do it you will find yourself holding the umbrella at somepoint as the wind swirls.

Might sound a bit obvious. But the top 2 tend to be telescopic so compact them down. then just seperate 2/3 and fold over. store the extra section in a seperate rod tube/

I dont really have a list i'll use anything that suits the criteria i need.
I have shimano,daiwa , drennan rods
shimano, abu , okuma , mitchell reals
multiple lines , hooks etc.
And sorry to sound like a heathen but a float is just a float.
Bit of stick would do if its right size and shape.

My excuse is because of what i do for a living i'm in and out of the house all day long. So login when ever i am home.

I dont do much surf fishing nowadays.
But i would look at the new longer style rods 18ft
These are designed more for an over head thump more than pendulum style casting so should increase your range.
I also use a lighter mainline or braid. purely for the thinner line diameter.

The picture looks like a ghost carp.
If you want i get around most of northamptonshire if your not already on my doorstep would be happy to show you the basics.

I am looking to buy some lock nuts to lock my bite alarms securely onto buzz bars. (I looked at some Korum ones in packs of 2 for 0.99p each. The vendor wanted £23.80 to send them to France
)I know the normal thread is 3/8th but does anyone know what that translates to in metric or BA?
thanks
Dave
The Thread is 3/8 BSF ( British Standard Fine)
there is no translation

Its Is unfortunate But like Chavender the safety of my Vehicle has become one of my considerations for any venue i fish.
I've decided against a few clubs that although they offer the type of fishing i like you regulary hear reports about vehicles being broken into at there venues.
But like others have said. Decide what you want from a venue and how far your willing to travel. Then choose clubs accordingly.

I tried using a beach caster as a spod rod for one session. I then went and brought a spod rod.
I found the beachcaster far to heavy and cumbersome to use for any length of time.
As for best make etc i cannt help there i just brought what they had in the shop that didnt feel to heavy.
-
maybe we could organise a mini fish in
its only 5 mile down the rd from me
but i,ve only fished it once.

I've fished a fair bit of the ouse above bedford. Unfortunately i've never heard of Phoenix AC what areas do they control.? They may be a pub club with just one small stretch of water.

I remember trying tinned new potatoes as a kid.
Didnt catch a bloomin thing so ate them myself .

cant ya just lick ya finger point it up in the air and do it that way?
How us old uns do it.

Most basic error i see a lot with newbies is how to use a landing net.
And how to hook a maggot

Quivertip rod with 12lb line feeder fishing.
At first appearance and without further info i'd suggest firstly a lighter line , smaller hooks (admittedly dont know what your using)
What i do tend to notice with beginners feeder fishing is they cast everywhere. Try using a small groundbait or maggot feeder with maggots, corn bread as bait. cast to the same spot every 10/15 mins to build up a baited area to draw fish into. Line around 5lb to a 3lb hoolength and a size 16 hook. If people are catching using a pole you obviously dont have to cast far so just fish a rod length or 2 out or to a feature.

I specifically brought isoptopes that werent so bright and never use starlights. I found watching a bright starlight ruined my night vision and always gave the impression it was moving. Where as the low brightness isotopes i could watch all night.

Once or if all the money is used up i can see what i have left but at the moment i have got it under lock and key until i know whats happening with Wingham.
No lock is impregnable especially when it comes to fishing.

I've been checked 3 times in 30 years.
The only reason i was checked was because i was fishing national matches and we all knew they would be there checking. I think they do only check commercial or day ticket fisheries. And far more importantly dont check frequently enough.
-
Thats a huge area.
A few clubs i know of mainly beds and herts.
Luton AC
Ampthill AC
Verulum AC
Vauxhall AC
Blunham Ac
London Colney AC
List goes on there just the ones i know of.
Of those i would look at Luton And vauxhall Angling clubs first.
but then again i know them best.

I screw the new spool to a post (gate) with a spring and a washer to tension the spool then wind away to my hearts content.
Very cheap and effective spooling tool.

Dont know if it would help but in my match fishing days we were getting a similar problem fishing the trent. What we ended up doing was fishing quite large cage feeders with just enough lead added to hold bottom. Add a big bow in the line . When we had a bite we virtually just reeled in as they dislodged the cage feeder and got hooked as the cage feeder shot downsteam. In effect a self hooking rig. we only used running ledger rigs no pternoster.
It was suprising as even a 2 inch roach was able to dislodge the feeder.

every commercial goes out of business. Syndicates which have had years or work put into them suddenly invaded. Farmers stopping access to water ways. Every club becoming defunct. It would become anarchy. At present the clubs/syndicates commercial owners police there waters. Bring that to an end and i suspect all the rules they impose would go out of the window with them. Leaving the state of our waters in dissaray and the wildlife within badly affected. Shortly after fishing would be banned entirely as a public nuisance.

I use a TF Force 8 sleeping bag, it's the only "real" fishing bag I have owned. Before that I used standard cheap Argos ones. I don't night fish in winter and to be honest it's to hot in the summer but very soft to sleep on top off. I also have a Realtree Traker Fleece cover and again I tend to sleep on top of it, very snug. Plus if I am in my real tree gear sleeping on my Realtree fleece you might not even see me if you peek in to my bivey.
True but i've heard your snoring

He was filming the go fishing series well into the late 90's. I was on the vauxhall comittee when he did a feature on the ouse barbel.
at felmersham. What most people didnt realise was the opening shot was on radwell bridge and all but one swim he fished was actually in Odells angling club waters not Vauxhalls waters. We didnt mind it increased the membership.
