Peg 101

[ayjay]

Club rules, particularly those relating to the times we are allowed to fish.

[nigelnibbles]

1. the close season

2. drunken so called "anglers"

3. wasps(no use to anyone)

4. dogs not on leads, it should be their owners :mad: really.

thats my lot for now

[snotty]

Where to start?

1. Agree about wasps though their grubs may get a reprieve

2. Definitely agree with the fireworks.

3. Wall to wall pole anglers sitting a few feet apart on my local brook when the roach start coming down, you have to be there at first light to even get a sniff of a peg and if you don't fish with a pole (which I don't) you may as well not bother.

4. Anglers who fish with more rods out than hands available and then toddle off to the next swim to talk to their mates.

5. Bad language when there are little ones around. (Sorry Zappagod but its just unacceptable it doesn't offend my ears but please not in front of the kids.

6. Fishing without proper equipment i.e. disgorger, forceps, unhooking mat, landing net.

7. Bad fish handling leads on from No.6, and includes unecessary use of a keepnet for larger fish, chucking fish back and swinging larger fish to hand.

8. Bite alarms set on LOUD!!! so that their owners can hear them when they are on the other side of the lake, (especially when the culprit is a local bailiff).

9. Local Authorities who close carparks adjacent to the canal to prevent drug abuse and in doing so prevent angler access.

10. Commercials who stock Chub and barbel into stillwaters.

 

That will have to do for now.

Keep it under your hat bait, and when you do find out what they use (just when you bought a seasons supply) they ban it! :mad:

[Paul_D]

Livebaiters..........No I didn't say that!

[Dick Dastardly]

One thing and one thing only.Kevin ******** book Carp Fever.Without this kiss and tell publication Angling would not be in the state it is today.

Instant Anglers

Those who roam the rivers demanding answers to their questions about swims, bait, rigs, etc., and won’t go and find their own swims or fish.

:mad: :mad: :mad:

Politicians who...how can I put this? Er, only mention half of what they are up to.

[tezcatlipoca]

People who throw what "trash" fish they catch onto the cat-walk, bank or whatever to die instead of returning them to the water.

People out for a nice Sunday stroll along the top of the bank on a low river, talking at the top of their voices with the sun behind them.
