Reel Line
A while back Keith put up a post about renewing his reel line. I was going to reply but then the post disappeared when the site experienced problems and was reset. So Keith, belatedly, here's my reply! I had quite a detailed look at lines a few years ago and unearthed some test data which showed tha...

Re: Club fees 2020
Fair comment Keith. Always worth exploring new ways to add a little extra interest. I think the pairs idea has some mileage - although its very difficult to make it work as a season long pairing, because as we see every year, members miss varying numbers of matches each season, so you lose the conti...

Re: Club fees 2020
Personally I'm not so keen on the unneccessary complication of extra pools. If people want to have side bets eg the Milton Keynes nugget - great, but lets not forget our main objective is to enjoy a days fishing in good company with a bit of banter and friendly rivalry. I believe thats one of the re...

Re: Re: Club match bookings 2020
Good luck with the last two shifts mate. 
Spare time - I fancy you'll be fishing (mostly)
Mind you, bit of a worry - with all that extra practice will you be unbeatable in 2020?

Re: Monster Mice
You'd be forgiven for thinking its just 1 or 2 mice that get into garages, outbuildings etc during the winter. Oh no. :nono A while back a mate of mine was having a spot of bother with the bastards chewing nets etc, nothing major, but he decided to have a concerted go at 'em in his garage with 3 or ...

Re: Monster Mice
Yeah - if the little buggers wreck your gear, eat your bait and then sh*t all over you then its time to get the traps out. :police Over the years they've eaten pellets inside plastic milk bottles - even after I suspended them in a tray from the garage ceiling; chewed up foam rubber rollers; cork on ...

Re: Venues for 2020
First I think we should stick with 14 matches, so its another 5 we're looking for. Re your first 9 - they look fine although the Snake didn't exactly deliver but worth a second try. Also remember they're supposedly de-stocking Arrans? My other 5 in no particular order: Monks 1 - and if we're coming ...

Slough House, 19th October 2019
And so to the final match of our season and a new venue for us - Slough House. With a reputation for large carp and catfish in the summer and more importantly for this match a growing reputation for decent late season and winter silvers bags; sadly today was pretty disappointing. The hoped for bream...

Re: Slough House Lake 19th October 2019
Dave also says, so pls bring scales and unhooking mats for any larger carp, if you have them. 
Pls also note there are 3 matches on Sat incl us, maybe 30ish PEGS out of the total of c50-60 pegs.
Dave says the lake looks good and pegs are reasonably well speced so should be ok.

Re: Slough House Lake 19th October 2019
Gino, looking at their website I dont think there's a cafe, so you're going to need a bit of local knowledge for a good nearby brekkie.

Southend Farm Match Lake 6th October 2019
13 fished today. The Match Lake offers an interesting prospect of a few 'proper' carp and good bags of bream & skimmers. So do you go for the carp outright or the bream and hope to nick a munter along the way. Makes for interesting line and elastic choices tho. Anyway the fishing turned out to b...
