You shouldn't need any kind of tool to bore out a boilie for the bait screw to fit, they just screw directly into the bait

You're right mate nobody is going to give you too much info on here and it's understandable. I know from your posts that you fish the farnham waters so you're kind of in the right vicinity to a good stretch. Also you want to look for features, moored up boats, turning bays etc anywhere slightly different from the usual straight sections

It's not in the area you mentioned but not very far away from bury hill to be fair. There's Stockbridge pond on the farnham membership. Beautiful little lake in the woods, chock full of lilies in the summer and holds some lovely tench and crucian too

Thanks for the info. All still seems a bit dodgy to me wonder why they would keep furnace and hyes and sell the other 4. I agree would make a good syndicate if run by someone who knows what they're doing and isn't just about the money like the previous owners

Interesting, thanks for the reply. So they have been sold to someone else you reckon? I wonder if they've turned it into a syndicate possibly.

Yeah mate I believe they did for a bit a few years back. Charging extortionate prices to hire out bait boats on lakes with a 30 yard casting range

Oh I am don't worry I'm just being nosey. I went once after the new owners bought the place and they tried telling me a 48 inch net wasn't going to be big enough and insisted I had to rent one of theirs

So who actually knows what's going on here? I've heard that they have closed multiple lakes, what's the reason behind it. I used to fish it many many years ago when Derek still owned it before he took the big carp with him. New owners are a joke and they ran the place into the ground. I'm just curious as I can't seem to find out any info online

Even Stillwater gets rammed mate, several times last summer couldn't even get in the car park let alone a swim.

I don't know how it compares in price to other companies as I've never hired a van but I have seen monster particles advertising European van hire. Might be worth a shout checking their website out
