Out of curiosity, I just found an interview of this guy on YouTube titled CMCS Pans Lake. The interviewer asks for a memorable childhood angling experience. He " recounted " his first night session for his 16 th birthday and then about 10 secs later says he'd have been around ten haha. (It's about one minute 30 in, made me chuckle ! ) Memorable session indeed Lol. Is he also supplying 2 part CSL from Marcus cos he's got the exact same photo of it on his website ?

Somebody earlier posted a frightfully long list of taxes / duties already payable by many of us. In two years or less ( its already been brought forward to 2028 from 2029 ) there will be another to add to that list. This is the import duty payable on low value items from the likes of Temu, Aliexpress, Shein etc. The EU has already implemented their version, whereby each item within an order which falls into a different category / product code incurs a separate 3 Euro import duty fee. It's even possible that various items of terminal tackle made from different materials ie steel, rubber, plastic, silicone, tungsten etc could have their own codes and duty on each item. So you could order 10 different items and incur 10 separate import duty fees which could exceed the actual cost of your initial order. Fill your boots lads while you can, cos the bubble is gonna burst

And just to confuse everyone further, when a sardine grows up it can be called a pilchard. For hundreds of years, biologists have been painstakingly classifying planet Earth's fauna and flora just so that we can call things what the Hell we want Lol. This was highlighted recently on the news, with fish and chip shops flogging Asian catfish as cod or haddock. Blooming rascals !

For a 12 hour overnighter you really only need the bare minimum of everything. Scale everything down to what you actually need. As has been suggested sandwiches, flask, and a few snacks is all you need. No need for messing about with cooking on a short session. If it's a water that you can prebait beforehand then that's a game changer. Just turn up with your rods clipped up with a stringer and you'll be sat fishing with a beer in about 25 min. Job done

When I suggested using what is available, I meant fishmeal not sweetcorn. I honestly can't see that substituting one fishmeal for another within a mix is going to be the deciding factor. If your most recent suppliers no longer stock it then it may well be discontinued. Even though the processing plants you mention still operate, it may be that regulations have changed meaning that particular products have had to be withdrawn. I remember using sardine and anchovy around twenty years ago from Quality Baits. It was a decent bait with other fishmeals, milks, birdfood, Robin Red etc. My best bait of recent years though has been a predominantly nut and bird food bait containing only about 6 % fishmeal. Anyway, good luck with your quest.

You posted the exact same question on here almost 5 years ago Lol. So I'm guessing that if you haven't found it yet, then you never will. The product you seek has probably gone the same way as LO 30, Original CSL, Original Scopex, etc, etc. Just use whatever is available to you. It's not as though anyone has stopped catching because product X or Y has been discontinued. Like many of us, you're probably on a nostalgia trip but time marches on and things change.

Thanks for the clarification. If indeed the club wants to fly under the radar with regards their fish / venues, then it just seems crazy to have it on their website. Maybe an updated website is planned, who knows.

I thought that a ban on floating pet food was the issue ? You mentioned publicity bans and the topic seems to have gone in that direction. Are you sure that this club actually has a publicity ban, because I've just looked at the gallery on their website and there are loads of photos. One of a particularly massive fish as well. Venue maps / descriptions, locations, etc.all included.

You've probably got a lifetime's supply of washers there. For anybody that can't be bothered cutting them, you can buy ready made discs of craft felt off Ebay. I bought some 25mm diameter, 1 mm thick ones to use with my Diawa Emblem QD spools. Just punched a 10 mm hole in the centre and they have been great.
