Great stories, kept me captivated on the bank last night

What a top man you are TC. Hope Dean and Freddie get a lot of exciting times and fun with the gear you've supplied them with 👍

"they don't take floaters in here" heard many times. if the fish aren't taking floaters infront of their swim, they don't bother to go and look for them

very impressive fish!! well done on the capture 👍

Noticed on the grand fishing adventure when Ali caught that sturgeon that the twig hadn't been activated when he was landing it! a great bit of kit that puts more fish on the bank

get yourself a couple of farm cats, that will soon sort it

white cottage is a lovely lake but is more a privileged day ticket isn't it? pay a membership and then pay to fish?

used my old angling intelligence baiting pole at the weekend and realising it's nowhere near long enough, and wanting to save a few quid, I'd thought I'd try my hand at making my own. anyone got any do's or don't's before I buy the gear and make one. thanks

thanks everyone for your replies, there's definitely some food for thought there (excuse the pun). and some recipes that I like the look of trying once I've got the hang getting the consistency and rolling right. just doing 1kg batches at a time for now until I fully know how I want them, trial and error. thanks again everyone for your help 👍👍
