IMO, Ladypit is worth the ticket price alone, although it does get very busy. Lots of Chub and a decent head of Barbel. I've only fished the tidal a few times and struggled if I'm honest, but haven't really given it a good go. Still learning Besthorpe, and haven't fished any other sections yet.

I've got a Scunthorpe ticket for Ladypit and the tidal. I'll probably get a Newark Piscatorial ticket next year. It means more time travelling for my fishing, which I detest, but at least there are Barbel up there. It's a shame, as the Upper is only 30 minutes away and I can be fishing in 40...

Is it worth having a BMAA ticket ?? I've been a member for about ten years now, and I know there are a few BM members on here too. I don't catch any Barbel on their waters, haven't had one for two seasons now. I don't get out as often as I probably should, but the thought of another fishless...

Just ordered two pairs. As a 13 I have to strike while the irons hot.

I like Terry Hearn too, but doesn't he look strange with grey hair. Seems to have come on all of a sudden. At lest he's got hair though.....

Look. Forget all this talk about making things, what's the lawn look like now it's been mown ?? 😁😁

Grivel do an extension bar for their crampons. I'm a 13 and used them on my G 12s https://grivel.com/products/valter-long-bar They also do a wide pair of G 10s which the bar will fit as well. https://grivel.com/collections/crampons/products/g10-wide

I stick one end of the hook length in my hand and then stretch it out sideways, and the other end goes under my chin. I cut the hook length material and tie it up. Edit; Just measured it. 3' 2"

A bit of a personal one this, but here goes. In late 1999, my Mother passed away in the house my Dad had built as a retirement home for them both. He'd passed away six years earlier. I inherited the house and my wife and I now live there. We had very good next door neighbours, and spent a lot...

I need a new pair of wellies, my current chameaus have just started to leak. I get through wellies like they're going out of fashion, but the chameaus have lasted a good while. My problem is, I have size 13 feet, so I have a limited choice.

Sadly, I’m going nowhere.

Back in my match fishing days, we fished a march on the Oxford canal at a section called Ivy Bridge, near Braunston. If my memory is correct, we had to cross the canal, then turn right down a track to the canal. There was nothing down this track over than a church. You drove down the track past...

Is it too early to talk about how a dishwasher should be loaded,........ 🤔🤔

I'm still using Maxima, or if it's allowed, braid. Mainly Bream fishing though. Silstar matchteam in the larger sizes for the float.

Only Fans,.......

My match fishing gear is a miss match of different makes, but it's been gathered over the years and serves the correct purpose. I'm not bothered about that all matching. But I do have two Daiwa AWL 11/13 stillwater feeder rods. Both rods have extra tips than came supplied with the rod. Guess what ??

Back in my match fishing days I was a bit short on room in the fridge. So I put a small tub of white maggots inside a larger tub of reds. Needless to say they got mixed up. So I sat and picked the whites out.

Anyone suffer with OCD in their fishing ?? I'm not too bad, but things have to be right. One of the reasons why I use a tripod rather than bankstick is so my rods are equal. If one tip is bent more than the other, I try my hardest to get them level. When I use banksticks, if they're not equal...

Well today didn't quite go to plan. I loaded the car up last night ready for an early start this morning. Went to the car at 5:30am and the car wouldn't start - flat battery. Put it on charge, but it never held any charge at all. I had noticed the battery wasn't starting the car all that well...
