I've contacted Hatfield police station and have informed them that I know of the whereabouts.

Let's hope someone gets their gear back.

Yep it's true.

He's offered me about £5000.00 worth of gear for £1000.00

There's a ton of gear, rods, bite alarms the works.

Most of my gear is top end and I don't need / want anymore gear!

It just Fûçkž me off with dirty thieves.

Hi guys, long time angler and fellow Londoner.

I believe the below stuff is stolen and has been offered to me for sale. I know their whereabouts if anyone wants information.

Way too much gear to list

I've vowed to not fish day ticket lakes ever again.

Me and a work friend was setting up for a weeks fishing at bluebells and had another ‘angler' show up just after. Before we were even fishing he had left a bucket in our swim as the swim we were fishing was featured in a YouTube carp video.

Staring at a bucket for a whole week is what deterred me from fishing these lakes.

I also found enough tackle on the floor to fill up my tackle box and re spool all 3 of my reels.

Yes, very true!

But 11 is 1 over 10 on an amp, 7 is one over 6 on a delk!

And leeroy, facepalm!

Good day all!

Just sitting on the bank and was thinking about my top 3 likes and dislikes when fishing.

Likes -

1. Switching off from work.
2. Being outdoors full of nature.
3. Hearing that Delkim absolutely melting off.

Dislikes -

1. Anglers with there alarms set to 7. (Spinal tap)
2. Seeing litter strewn around the swim.
3. Pooing in a carrier bag.

Anyone else?

This looks very interesting.

I only really eat soup or the odd homemade sauce which needs reheating quickly.

What fuel is used with it and is it cheaper than gas?

Thanks again!

Publicity ban on all of my syndicates

I don't agree with you. If used correctly there is no harm in using lead core anywhere.

I personally don't drop my leads on a helicopter set up for safety reasons.

If I tied 15lb mono to your ankles and ask you to swim away from me you wouldn't be able to. 15lb mono is just as ‘dangerous' as lead core in terms of strength.

The safest way to fish would be 8lb line and actually play the fish and not drag it in but who would use it?

Also Keith moors is a bit of a jobs worth too!

Hey, I'm thinking about purchasing a new shelter but am a bit unsure on which one to get.

I don't do a lot of winter fishing and ALWAYS fish with my front up which is why I'm thinking a shelter as appose to a bivy.

At the moment I have a trakker armo MK1 1 man in mint condition and a Nash h gun brolly.

I'm after a decent shelter 1 man maybe Trakker?

Any ideas will be grateful,
