jh92 475 Posted June 3, 2020 Report Share Posted June 3, 2020 New 4hp motor for the sea Thinking about getting an electric one for river fishing. I've found a nice spot along the river that's not accessible from roads just a mile walk through an over grown field, never seen anyone fishing there cos its a pain to get to. So thinking about motoring over to it on the boat lol Tackle for sea fishing rigs, all the bling stuff 😂 cant wait to get back carp fishing but the lakes are rammed, canal is rammed with fishermen and day walkers, so giving the carp fishing a miss at the moment, but be back on it when river season starts. Have been out on the boat though, loads of fun but a nightmare getting used to the outboard, first time out of Brixham harbour had me going round in circles off the slipway but got the hang of it after a few minutes 😂😂 caught some mackerel on my first fishing trip, 6 hooks on an inflatable boat is a bit too much for me so ended up cutting 2 off for the next trip 😂 Went for a walk around the reservoirs yesterday and they were empty. Considering taking up fly fishing 🎣😂 crusian and dayvid 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Golden Paws 239 Posted June 6, 2020 Report Share Posted June 6, 2020 Ordered some Berkley CF600 Fluorocarbon in 18lb from Angling Direct a week ago for sub 50 yard fishing. I know I should have used a local shop but they want you to jump through hoops with the Corona Virus, 'phone first, wait at the door, plastic payment etc. etc. Never had a problem with AD before but despite it showing in stock, they still haven't dispatched it. E-mailed them and had a polite letter back but no indication as to when they will send it. Should have jumped through the hoops! I did hear that AD were overstretching themselves and won't be in a hurry to order again. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

elmoputney 3,708 Posted June 13, 2020 Report Share Posted June 13, 2020 I've bought some more stuff recently Gardner covert rig bits, Bmg Square chod hooks and stiff rig hooks, I like the square ones 12ft paracord distance stick cord with 3 grenade markers on, £6.75 I bought these as I had a small breakthrough last time I used the inserts of my storm poles as sticks and they were the nuts, being longer so rather than buying new distance sticks I treated myself to a flashy cord 😁 Bank tackle coated braid and chod link, swivels and clips and toot Usual sort of stuff for fannying around whilst not fishing 😁 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Will do, i hope it does I really want to use 2 types of boilies this year, and I wouldn't mind one being banana flavour, I remember reading an article in an old carpworld years ago I am pretty sure it was John claridge and he was using banana bait on yateley, I remember always wanting a banana bait from then, I did quite like nutrabaits pineapple and banana for a bit, I do like the other boilies I am using though so it's not the end of the world if it doesn't work out crusian 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
