    Filters

    In layman's terms can someone explain the difference between using a skylight and a UV filter? I used to use a UV and have recently started using a skylight what differences should I be seeing
  3. 2 Occassions for me 1: I was only about 12 and was fishing on the river mole at Hampton Court. The bank was quite steep and I was having trouble pushing my bank stick into the ground near the rivers edge, so I stood with my back to the river to try and get a better angle of push on the bany stick needless to say when it suddenly went in I lost my footing and shot backwards into the river nmuch to the amusement oif my friends. 2: was in France, having worked all day and driven all night to arrive at the venue I was shattered so set up etc and went to bed, at about 2.00am I had a fast take on one of the rods and in my half awake half asleep state came out of the bivvy and ran past my rods and into the lake

  6. Cheers lads, I'm of fishing for the next 20 hours so will be playing with the camera
  7. Wow, you guy's are a bit out of my league but I'll perserve and hopefully improve I had thought my shot was quite good but now it looks pretty plain
  8. I just purchased my first ever digital a Nikon D70S (upgrading from a Nikon F65) and just wanted to try it out
  9. Its a bird seed mix (haiths redband) but any particle/seed mix will work prepared the same way, and yes I've caught loads over it Good luck mate
  10. The mix above will cost you a small fortune Get some redband seed, half fill a bucket with it, fill 3/4 fall with boiling water, place a lid on it and leave for 48 hours, just before fishing add a tin or 2 of sweetcorn that will cost you about £3 max and the fish will love it
  11. Use light leads 1oz, or if you must use heavier leads use a large PVA bag and put your rig and lead in it along with some broken boillies and trout pellets
  12. As the heading say's beware of some arse trading on Ebay and possibly other sites as cwbaits and claims his name is Cris (no H) Bradley living in Devon with a contact number of 07989 726348 which when answered claims not to be him as this person found the phone! He recently "sold" on Ebay 3 lots of 5Kgs buckets of boilies, a Microcat bait boat and a DVD. Having deposited my funds with PayPal I failed to receive any replies to Emails etc from this muppet, so raised the issue with PayPal. Luckily PayPal have stopped him from getting his grubby mitts on my hard earned which will be returned to me in some 30 days minus a £15 fee when they have completed there enquires. I have also contacted the one person I could (a lady who bought the DVD) and likewise she has sent her money and not received so much as an Email
  13. Just the 26.12 sturgeon. Dont let the bad week put you off mate in 14 years of going I have only had 2 weeks that were harder fishing than that. If you want to take all your family next year try having a look at Paul Selmans lakes your misses will love them
  14. Well what a week north easterly winds and rain every day really did not help on a personal note I caught 9 fish and lost 1 which were: 1 Tench 1 koi 9Lb 8oz 3 Commons 20Lb 6oz, 24Lb & 31Lb 1 Grass 39Lb 2oz (PB) 3 Sturgeon 15Lb 9oz, 20Lb & 26Lb 12oz Role on next year
  15. Lakestar bait boat bought in December for £495 + spare battery bought 2 weeks ago for £18 + carryall bought in December for £60 total cost £573 Used for 1 week in France and about 8 other times Perfect working order and as clean as a whistle Will sell the whole lot £470 OVNO. Collection preferred but could courier at cost
  16. Big up JRC. I emailed them to say I had somehow lost one of the u shapped plastic bottom section supports and one of the handtwist back rack adjusters for my bedchair. They called me the next day (last Monday) to say they have the u in stock but are awaiting the handtwists, but once they arrived they would send them to me, and when I asked how to pay I was told don't worry about it. They both arrived yesterday (just in time for France at the weekend ) So a big thanks to JRC and I know who's products I will be buying next when needed
  17. Happy days mate, I'm well excited now, we won't get there until about 4 maybe 4.30 as we'll probably stop at the inter marche near Brienne le chateau (about 15 mins before Jonchery)
  18. I've just checked the next 15 days weather for the region and the week we are there it is saying no rain and temps ranging between 13C & 17C, should be perfect as long as they have spawned, but if they haven't we could be in trouble as they probably will
  19. Hi mate I have the cheaper version (£495) the only difference being you dont get the head light, all the lights on the side, and the battery for the handset. Battery life is really good at least 45 mins as stated by the makers, although I have to say I did use mine 3 weekends on the bounce without recharging it. The batteries take a couple of hours to charge. The only issue I have is that it can be hard to steer as you are simply relying on the propellers spining forwards and backwardsi.e. to go left slow down the left propeller and visa versa, where as on the AT boats you actually steer them left and right.
