Fair point. I don’t really have a no list. Always fished club waters. Have fished at Chichester on ivy and quite enjoyed that but believe that’s now a syndicate water? And I think there’s restrictions on how far you live from the water which would rule me out.

Evening all, hope everyone’s start to the year has been a good one. Im in search of a new venue, syndicate ticket in Hampshire. I’m in the Portsmouth area and due to only fishing a work night a week I’m not looking at travelling over an hour tops really. Something challenging, scenic, full of features, low ish stock. I know, I want the moon on a stick but if you don’t ask you don’t get. Happy to get my name on a list and wait it out. Any ideas welcomed. Pm if preferred. thanks in advance.

That’s my face when I get a single beep on the margin rod 😁

That tench is a cracker!

Portsmouth way down by the seaside

Miles away mate!

I have sonik 3 rod hold-all in the garage not being used. Where are based?

I’m after a double figure tench and bream. I’ve had them to double figures but sadly didn’t appreciate it and didn’t get the picture. Not everyones dream I’m sure!

Highy let’s get it booked!🤣 2030 for me

Compromise.. the secret to a happy marriage 😁

I loved doing a weekend trip. Take my time, relax, power nap during the day. Then children came along. Weekends are now a never ending stream of sports clubs, swimming and entertaining. I wouldn’t change it for the world! But I had to alter my fishing to suit. I do a mid week over night and maybe 1 or 2 36 hour trips. Keeps the kids happy, the wife enjoys the peace on a Wednesday and because I put more thought and care into that short session my catch rates have improved. when the kids are older and less dependent on me I’d love a trip to France. A week of fishing must be blooming lovely!

Always nice to get that first trip in. Are you doing the day or a longer session? Im planning to be out next Wednesday. Cancelled this weeks trip and itching to get out. Weathers feeling good for it.

Worth getting just to annoy the wife. I’ll put my bivvy up in the lounge just for the full effect.

So it’s a carp fishing experience without leaving your sofa? How very 2019!😂 is it realistic? Can you hear people hammering in pegs in the distance? Is there a clicky group of camo clad regulars staring across the lake as you cast? Do you wait an eternity for a beep only to have foul hooked the only remaining bream in the lake? tell me more, I’m tempted!

I know I’m getting old but what is this?? Last game I played was mario kart!
