Kam - sounds good - have you been out? If so what is the prefered technique to catch some fish fingers in a slippery package?

It was supposed to be a half and half bass and bream trip. The bass didn't play ball so spent some of the bass time on cod and turbot result in 4 cod in 3 drifts and 3 turbot in 2 drifts.

The breaming was bad too, wished we had spent the bream time on the cod too, but others wanted to go breaming.

Plenty of cod on the edge of the bank, shame the bass are not in, in any number or consistency yet.

Don't know about sharking, but when I was fishing for 100+ conger over the French side (didn't get one that big mind you), the skipper swears on using mono and one guy who was using mono had no lost fish, even tho one of his fish was near the magic number.

I have this mackeral fishing sussed out now.

If you want maccy, you really need to arm yourself with breaming gear and squid and keep telling yourself you are going breaming. Then magically the maccy will arrive.

Sad news......

no more bumping for Tom

I need to cover the common area (hallway/stairway etc) in my mum flats. What is the best (and value for money) option? Seagrass?

Just in casee you guys got fed up with whale tail here another google search for you.... Wild Asian Ass

I can just quess what the top Google search on PBSBAC website is today......

Don't answer the question whether it's kept or not......

I think you need a licence to keep sea trout and salmond even caught at sea.

I'm thinking toward a pout, the poor cod I usually catch is a little streamline compare to this

Can't help you much with the rod and reel as I don't know any in your price range, don't forget to add the price of braid, it could be as much as

I'm planning to replace the lighting in my living room with downlights (50w or eqv), just want to comfirm what the wholeseller told me that I need 1 light per 1.2 sq metre of space is correct.

Thanks.

Bloody hell..... the big 40 crips up on you with no time at all.

Must go and find a hobby for mid life crisis...... how about fishing? Is it really all it cracked up to be?

May be someone who bought a Predator 165 instead of a warrior 165

Our world is run by a few rich sick ignorant barstewards that can see no further than the end of their wallets

This reminds me of a prog I watched some years back about Easter Island. Apparently it once had a lush forest, but people needed firewood in the process of splitting large rock into smaller one which they then made into the famous statues, so trees were cut down one after the other until eventually all were gone. The prog maker then said:'When they cut down the last tree, they must had realised it was the last tree on the island yet they cut it down......'

So I guess human haven't evolved much over the centuaries.

So this is a recommendation of "NOT TO USE"

Hi Newboy,size is same as my TLD 15

Nige

hmmmm........ I thought it was much more like a Avet sx.......maybe I was wrong.

Too big for me.

The second is ST1211 You are correct they are made in Taiwan to Japanese Spec I have others which I have used and stripped to inspect they are made to a very high standard being out of one piece billet so are very strongly constructed with stainless bearings and are sold through Pelagic Australia/America.

My SHIMANO`S are made in Malaysia

I personally like these reels as I`m finding others at same money are plastic or very thin ally side plates that corrode very quickly,having said that my ABU LD BG is still going because I regularly strip and clean and coat inside side plates with waterpoof wheel bearing grease.

Any questions please ask or if anybody would just like to see them let me know and I`ll take them to the meet

Cheers Nigel

P.S if anybody is interested I will do a full money back if they do break

I wasn't dissing the reels, from the reveiws on the net, they aren't bad reels, just short off Avet quality (which incidentally is what they are copied from) but at 2/3 the price.

Just wondering what physical size is the left hand one?

Omoto and Pelagic are the makes

 

 

Am I right in saying the one on the left is ....

PELAGIC ZORRO ST100Z-2 SPD LEVER DRAG JIGGING GAME REEL

The second one looks like ....

POSEIDON S I/II SPEED LD SERIES

What size are these reels?

I think they are made in Taiwan rather than Australia.

The first ones got your name on it Kam

Oh yes it has......

How about a photo or two?

Thanks for all your support.

 

To anyone who is interested we have to film over 2 days on the 18th and 19th of March but if we know in advance we may be able to change those days slightly if we get permission from our tutor.

 

If you think you want to help either contact me directly through my contact detail in the 1st message or through Paul Jennings, club chairman.

 

Thank you again

 

Jack

I too would like advance notice if my next fishing tripon the 9th of March will go ahead or not......

Seriously Jack, fishing is dictate by the weather god and there's not way of telling what the weather will be like on the 18/19th, even with 2 days to go it can change drasticly.

Good luck tho.

Why this not surprise me?

This government is all about hidden and stealth tax, it started when gordon brown became the chancellor and it just carried on from there.

probably too big for me, i was looking at Honda CRV size or similar,

 

trying to get 40mpg if possible......also thought about VW Passat or Saab diesel models.

 

what are your thoughts on these type???

 

Cheers anyway

I'm pretty sure the Passat's legal towing weigh is only 1600kg. Nevertheless a cracking car, economical and comfy to drive.
