Hi Graham,
I used to live in Newton Hall a few years back.
Between Chester le Street and Newton Hall there was a Tyre and MOT garage and behind that is some allotments. Park by the allotments and walk down to the river, about 200yrds down stream used to be a tree stump in the water;)

Hi Chris,
Have a look at Woodland Waters at Ancaster http://woodlandwaters.co.uk
3 of the 4 lakes don't offer night fishing but the main lake does holds a huge head of double figure bream, carp and i believe tench to double figures although most of the tench are in the matchlake!

From what i can gather because the club has a non disclosure policy and the fact the club also runs a strict no night fishing rule he can not and will not claim the record:rolleyes::rolleyes:
It was also supposed to have been witnessed by 4 other people (one of which was the baliff, "no night...
Hi Alan,
When i go roach fishing and want to target the bigger fish i tend to use hemp and tares.
I feed hemp and fish hemp but feeding the odd tare, keep trying tare untill the bigger fish are ready to take them.
Had some good results on tares over the years, only problem is you can't...
I wasn't going to post the picture but thought "sod it", after looking through the river record section and seeing the Ribble fish (a good honest photo) i thought what the hell:D:D
I have a picture of the picture of the supposid 24lb 1oz Trent Fish.
I hope BFW don't mind but i have used the picture of the 15lb Ribble record for comparison as they look very simular in size.
Take a look and make your own mind up....
To make sure there is no confusion the first...
I personally think it down to the stretch and the pressure on that stretch, i can only think of a few places that fish all night long!!
I tend to do night sessions but then hang the rods up and get some shut eye, no point packing away in the dark, driving home, waking the mrs up and having...
Got a feeling with THE RUMOUR going around there will be a lot more D*CK HEADS on the Trent this season:rolleyes::rolleyes:
Also at collingham one of our members was telling us how one of the idiots having a fricking mahusive bonfire caused a nice burn hole in his new brolly...
I have been using fake hemp on the hair with hemp and crushed hemp in the feeder with some success, i have been switching to it during the day when bites have been hard to come by;)
I have just been converted to the Drennan Twistlock and the Korum 30" Latex Barbel Spoon.
I was using the spoon in some very fast water and was still able to hold it with one hand:) well chuffed:D
I got them both from Matchman Supplies with free delivery!!
I am having similar troubles with Blackcountry Baits!!:mad::mad:
I ordered £16 of leads on 24/04 and they have never arrived, the guy reckons he has sent them 3 times now and everytime i ask for a tracking number it is never recognised.
After a conversation with him yesterday he finaly said...
Hi Chris,
Do you ever stop buying tackle;)
I read about your wish for a swingtip rod, i have a custom built 9' 1.25tc swingtip rod in the loft that my father had made for bream fishing on the canal, I think i should go up and fetch it down and give it a bash:D
