    Fete De La Chasse Et De La Peche - Chateau De Carrouges Just thought I would share this fantasic Hunting and Fishing Fair in Normandy. It is a three day event in the grounds of the Chateau, great atmosphere. Usualy at the end of July, begining of August, me and the missus went this year and are definately going next year.......Treat yourself, it is fanrastic.

    Look at the Orvis Clearwater 9`6" for a #6 or perhaps #7. Fantastic VFM rod in 4 piece with warranty. Cannot go wrong.

    Definately with "FightThebanon this one. S&B 8x56 is a fantastic scope the Hungarian Classik is a little cheaper. Good luck.

    Dont know about Ireland or scotland guys, but in England and Wales ANY breach of the Salmon and Feshwater Fisheies Act is criminal. Meaning it carries a criminal record! If you have a SGC or FAC it MAY have an influence, on renewal, if you have a conviction.....Just a thought.

    How long is a piece of string. But a Sako 75 or 85, S&B Klassic scope will last you a life time.

    Hello mate. Get the NEW BDS two set of DVDs. You save a bit if you buy both, they are very informative. Try and get a copy of "Deer Quest" CD as well.

    Not sure what you mean "if you havnt got the confidence to take the shot then the .308 is the right choice" Cant see how the difference in caliber effects confidence. I have got every confidence in my Sako 75 .243, it is superb. Where I put those cross hairs is where the shot places. TOTAL confidence....Just getting a .308 ASWELL cos I am a bit of a rifle tart!....I want both, simple as. Nothing to do with lack of conficence...Belive me.

    spear fishing is illegal you dick! gluebeam. I think coming back at a 13 year old lad with good intentions with the INCORRECT comment "spear fishing is illegal you dick!" is a bloody disgrace on a forum such as this. If this is the only type of comment you can make, then stay away. It is not wanted here.

    Any of you boys got an opinion on Wildcat mods. Please let me know, good or bad. They always look a bit big, long and bulky to me!

    £1.20 a lb here in Devon, coat off. We keep as many as we need for our own consumption, and I know you cant eat it all the time. But we do sausages, burgers (Fantasic) mince for chilli, spag bol etc, cubed for casseroles and "parve` for steaks...Stunning! Swop some with my mate for some lamb and beef...Do my own pigs....Happy days, the only meat we buy is free range chicken from the local farm shop Got a nice Fallow Does in the chiller as I speak That will keep us going for a while

  21. dartmoorman
    for the price of them i would perfer a sako buddy but thats me. With `jamie g on` that one mate. Spend a little more and get a Sako, it will hold its money much better.

    Go into the Gunroom in Ivybridge, and have a chat with John. I cannot promise anything, but it is a good start. The area you are moving to has excellent stalking, if you can get it. Roe, Fallow and red. Good luck - And welcome to Gods Country!

    Bit later on, a team of three flies. Size 12 buzzer on the point, size 14 Diawl Bach middle dropper, size 14 Buzzer top dropper. Fish it on a floating line with little movement using a leader of abour 15 - 20 feet, or as long as you are comfortable with. Use flourcarbon - The fish cant see it! ---------TIGHT LINES--------
  24. dartmoorman
    We shoot em down ere in Debm.

    If you are new to fly fishing, or wish to take it up. Do yourself a favour and get a lesson or two from a GAIA (Game Angling Instructors Association) game angling instructor.....It will save you money in the long run.....And a lot of frustration!
