I don't use pellets much of any size on the hook, but do feed them in moderation. I'd normally square off a halibut boilie, and use that instead.
I'd fined down due to the conditions, fished an 8mm banded pellet on a 12 hook to a long 9lbs Supplex hooklength, in the hope smaller baits would...
What's the smallest size pellet you would use as a hook bait ??
Had my first trip out this season on a very low middle Trent last week. I fished a banded 8mm pellet with a mesh bag of mixed sized pellets on my upstream rod, and a whittled down boilie with a few freebies on the bottom rod...
Brilliant isn't it. How do they do it ?? My first one only took 40 minutes. Get well soon.
Amounts to pretty much the same thing going on yesterdays performance,......
Whishing you all the best, Tom. At least you'll know what to expect this time around. Although, I'm not sure that's any help, as you know what's coming.
Had my second one done 27th Feb this year.
The electricity industry is looking at different ways to supply the extra demand. Local "smart" networks where those with home generation feed back into the local area, powering houses locally, rather than just the grid.
Come home in your 50% charged car, plug it in and it feeds back into the...
......And hope it rains.
It's time to think outside the box. Not just for water, but for all utilities and other essentials. We keep adding houses to everywhere, but the infrastructure doesn't keep pace.
We were told we had plenty of water earlier this year, and wouldn't need to worry. Now...
After a day on a building site removing a power line, and we're back there today, I retired to the shade of the house when I got home. With the forecast being the same all week, I doubt I'll get an evening out this week. not looking too good weather wise for next week either.
Nice to see some...
I use ATT underlit alarms with snag ears but with the receiver turned off. The light coming on is enough to alert me of a take. If I start to feel drowsy, I'll put the receiver on, but even when I'm Carp fishing I find it difficult to sleep with rods out.
It's time it was scrapped and let the clubs decide when we can fish.
Seems to work on the big Carp waters. They just close when the fish are actually spawning.
I've got the net, Julian. The 26" version. I like it. I did look at the 30" but it was just too big for my needs. Nice and light and easily moved around. The mesh is deep enough for me, and I've had a 13lber in it, so ok size wise. My only criticism is when folded in half it is a little awkward...
With the new season rapidly approaching, where are you going first trip ??
As I'm no longer a member of the BMAA, I'll have to venture up to the Newark area of the Trent. Ladypit fm might be the first visit. Nip over after work for a few hours. My right shoulder is playing up a little, so...
50-50 Glycerine-water should work, Ray. My carp fishing mate uses that ratio to flavour his hookbaita. He also adds a colour as well. Still PVA friendly too.
