kempo

be a good idea to makes a list of venues like this who want to rip people off so others can avoid there fisheries. if i was teaching my boy then there is no way i would expect to have to pay a ticket for him if we were in the same peg.

nice looking board stam and i especially like the working chat room. top marks m8

dont go to argos for fishing gere, full stop

just do this, get two people to hold your pole either side of the stuck joints (about 24 inches back and lean back,) then you rotate the joints, bingo the joints come apart. ps never twist a stuck joint, just ease the joint apart. pull and rotate anything else will kill your pole.

hemp will attract to many roach on a weedy wenue, and that is what you dont need. chop worm and a bait dropper please dont use ground bait for tench.

try a slammo disgorger, they will remove a hook from the fleshy part of the perch at the back of its throat every time and they are the best disgorger's for bream as well. don't concern your self with striking speed as perch can sit on a bait and swallow the bait before moving off (bite detection point) you can only do what you can when the fish is in your hand, if the hook is to far down i.e yo cant see or feel it then you have to bite the line. but slammos are quite long and fish friendly and there are no severe edges to harm the fish.

fish a lead and inject a lob-worm with air to pop it up, but you can feed tench up in the water with casters and take them just under the surface i have done it before on weedy venues but you need a lot of casters to feed off the roach etc. a whole lob-worm has to be the best tench bait ever invented, ask anyone who fishes the Thames. tench love'm ps if you have a bait dropper, take the lead off the bottom and extend the shaft to around 2 ft and re attach the lead and dropper in chop worm as this will lay on the weed and draw fish. failing that take a heavy rake and a rope to your peg throw it in and dredge the swim for 15 minutes and fish it then as the disturbance will draw every tench in the lake and tha will bag oop dook.

when using matchman hook tyer do you whip from the top down or the bottom up, (not a lot of people know this) but you should always whip the hook from the top down (start at the spade and whip towards the gape). i watched my friend billy Reynolds tie a spade hook by hand and he is faster than me with a tier, he ties 26 im1n's with no problem. i wish i could do it but the hook tier is real easy once you get used to it. as for eyed hooks they are fine for bigger fish (carp and barble) but having the eye in the hook adds extra metal and makes the hook heavier, thus impeding the natural presentation of the bait when fishing on the drop or off bottom for roach etc.

same as that

we had a drenen knockout on the loddon, its a fine venue, especially the peg on the bend that runs away from you as you just drop your 13bb loafer in the flow and run it down besides the reed beds, i had 13 barble that day and it was my firs ever barble. ps we lost the knockout by one point and the team we were against (cant remember who it was ) but the loddon was there choice of water as we had a choice to but that was there choice. lovely place though and very easy to fish.

cs gas or pepper spray will do the trick just nicely, and if that runs out then they get a zap from my tasar. and they are legal protection. http://www.taser.com/

sounds like a corrupt system file, not letting windows load. you might want to boot from your xp disk and take the repair option if you cant get to any tools in windows.

What species are you fishing for, what kind of venue is it.

123.co.uk domains are 6 qiud for 2 years, not bad 3 quid a year eh.

there OK but i prefer cockroaches

done. hi there, i like the look of your bivvy, my friend had the same type of thing and its quite large, does your bivvy have a toilet room in the back. please

check out this lot its what i use http://www.hosting-unlimited.net/ you get the basic package of 500 meg of space plus something silly like 5 gig per month of bandwidth, lots of email addys and a very easy to navigate cpanel. all for 19 quid a year, plus they give you a choice of web templates where you just add your pictures and your text, and you can edit it all through cpannel. you also have chat rooms photo albums etc and lots of other goodies. i been using them for around 3 years now and only have about 3 days downtime out of that. there forums are very helpful as well. P's you will need a domain name first to register an account and a good place to get this is here, http://www.123-reg.co.uk/ good luck.

it sounds to me that the only reason for them using the method feeder is a self hooking method, as apposed to the paternoster or loop. i would only use this method if you were on a lot of bream. plus the method can get a lot more bait down on the deck fast and that helps to hold bream, look at different ground-bait mixes, fish-meal seems to work well for bream along with a high particle feed like bream 3000.

ah no problem that was just a bit of light banter lol, its a real nice piece of kit though eh. well worth the 300 quid. as i value my back much more than 300 quid.

geee zus thats a lot of stuff m8.

same as that

wow that does look intresting, kind of gives me a touch of Deja vu

top point, backing up your system files can cause no end of grief, you only need to backup you software not system data as this can corrupt itself at the drop of a hat, always re format and renew the os. unless you are using the same con-fig and system then just ghost it.

not relevant in this post m8, we need to be prepared for every situation hence the motorised trolley.
