Now that's what I call lock down. 😂🤣

The ones with the orange inserts are prologic and I've been using them for two seasons with no problems what so ever they grip really well. 🙂👍

Lovely fish mate well done.🙂👍

When you fish up north you need to carry one with you too dry your gear out because it rains so much. 🤣😂

Well done mate excellent angling, it just takes the one run.🙂👍

It will come elmo, I didn't think I was ever going to break my pb but last year I did it several times. I've got my doubts this year, it's not started well and guess what I was supposed to be going Monday and my back has gone again, so no fishing for me again. But if you're fishing it only takes the one run mate, just remember that. Good luck pal I hope you catch a chunk.😁👍

I'm talking 20 plus years ago and at the time there were 2 definite different 30lbers in there. It was a fantastic water at the time, I couldn't tell what the stamp of fish are like now. 🙂👍

Hi Damo these used to be on the withnell ticket and i used to fish them many years ago for the pike, very hard waters put properly one of the best pike waters in the area at the time, one of my mates had his one and only 30 out of rake brook. There are some big carp in lower roddlesworth I've watched them many times in the summer cruising around on top never fished for them because I wasn't interested in carp at the time, but they have to be worth a ago, I'd be tempted to pre bait some areas and have a go for them, I don't know if anyone fishes for them now but at the time only a couple of lads used to fish for them, I couldn't even tell you if they ever got caught. As for the withnell ticket they don't have a lot of carp waters only the two I mentioned in my earlier post and I don't really know how good they are as yet I only rejoined the club in January after many years and I've not really fished a lot up to now.

Hi Damo and welcome to the forum. I'm also from the lovely north west, I'm a member of withnell Anglers and fish junior lodge at withnell fold and roach bridge lodge. You've got plenty of choice of excellent waters with prince Albert ticket. It's nice to have another northerner on board. 😁👍

Well I did my first overnighter last night on one of the waters on my new club ticket, it's a runs water nothing too big they go to high doubles. Any way I had 6. Smallest 6 1/2 biggest 10lb. It was nice to get a bend in the rods. No photo's the weather wasn't the best didn't fancy taking photos in the rain. 🙂👍

Cheers elmo.👍 Mines completely knackered. It's either trying to get someone to make me some stronger handles or a new Barrow for me. I'm dreading that walk in the morning it's going to kill me. 🤣😂🤣

I wish.😂🤣😂

Will do mate. 🙂👍

Cheers mate.🙂👍

Well I'm on my first overnighter since I started carping. Didn't start off to well my cheapo Barrow clasped ( you were right elmo not a good Barrow). But all set up now rods out on my first coffee, just need the carp to come out and play now.🙂👍
