    'Nuts' for Carp?

    I was walking around the lake at lunchtime and the club secretary was there (with the EA investigating the fish deaths) so I asked him and as expected it was a no. So the matter is effectively closed. Thanks for all the opinions. Vince

    'Nuts' for Carp?

    To be honest Tim it annoys me when the rules are written down in such a way that they are open to interpretation, I'd rather they were clear, precise, comprehensive and applied to all members. The complete section of rules for baits reds like this:- "ALL traditional HOOK BAITS allowed but no...

    'Nuts' for Carp?

    Sweetcorn would be a disaster, Trout can't get enough. Never tried sweet potato, although I did fish par boiled potatoes nearly 45 years ago (Mr Crabtee;)) Although I do appreciate the input I'm not really after bait alternatives, just peoples thoughts on following the letter of the rules or the...

    A new Carp lake.

    Maybe it's because I fish for most of the UK species of fish, or maybe it's because I'm old enough to remember the days before Carp fishing was so widely available but I don't understand the need to belittle aspects of carp fishing, because they're not your cup of tea. Also shouldn't this be...

    Meat cutters

    I went to buy some of the Korum ones from my local tackle shop and the owner told me there'd been a lot of complaints about the blades and suggested I get a MAP cutter (that he doesn't stock).

    Meat cutters

    I assume the MAP cutters would cut garlic sausage (below) if trimmed to fit?
