Can’t see the point in them , it’s not like your not going to watch tv or put the kettle on or sit in the dark just because you can see what’s being used and it’s not going to stop the people who leave all the lights on from doing it . The only benefit I can see is for the power companies themselves saving money by making meter readers redundant

If your looking at Cheshire then Lymm anglers , Bay Malton , Warrington anglers or Northwich anglers might be worth a look . There’s always Prince Albert or wheelock anglers aswell but they have waiting lists .

A mate just sent me these and I can’t believe how much he sounds like him . Normally soundalike artists sound similar but this guy is next level . If you wasn’t looking at the screen and were just listening you’d think you were listening to cash

Thats the swim if you do have a go , you can’t miss it . I forgot to switch the camera on so it’s the only one we got on camera . The lure is a zman slim swim in pearl pattern with a 1/8th tt jig head on a 0.9-7 gram rod . The lad to my right is using the same end gear but a 3-12 gram rod and the lad on the left was using a 5-20 gram rod with the same lure . We are talking to a local on the vid who told us he’d only ever seen 1 zander caught on that stretch . We had 4 while we were talking to him . We met him again later on and gave him a few lures when he was looking at my lures and he opened

I was tempted but I just don’t fancy the long drive . I fished that stretch last year , we had plenty of perch , some zander and saw a few chub but interestingly none of us even had a follow off a pike . If you look on google maps at the post code and follow the coventry canal right , there’s an inflow on the opposite bank further up and nearly all the zander we had came from that swim . The perch came from all over the Oxford and coventry canals

Was reading last night that ggg vs canelo is looking more and more likely to get cancelled because of 2 failed tests and that ggg wants Saunders if the fight falls through . Also saw some vids saying that the cyclist contador used the same excuse but was banned for having to much clenbuterol in his system at 50 picograms and one of canelos tests had something like 600-800 picograms and that there’s no way a reading that high came from tainted meat .

You couldn’t be more wrong about my brother, if you ever met him you’d soon realise he really is a straighthead . I lived that life years ago and spent alot of my 20’s in frankland because of what I used to get up to so I know how things work . I do think you are right about them being thick though , no masks or gloves and putting themselves around cctv says to me that they are amateur chancers who got the wrong address . They asked about a 3 year old daughter which he doesn’t have , she’s 16 and a few other things they said didn’t add up . Either way they have Fcuked up because he went strai

Happened to my brother on Monday night and he’s the straightest man around , doesn’t even smoke fags never mind do drugs . He’s a proper family man , works 2 jobs and runs a kids football team and never been in trouble in his life . He was sat watching tv and next minute there’s 2 lads with knives in his face saying they were looking for ching and said they were taking over the town so they either got the wrong house or they are as I suspect are just muppets . It was only by sheer luck that his wife and kids were out . One of the dicks was bragging about just getting out of prison and that he

Framar custom knives are doing 10inch soft Arkansas stones with buck oil for £20.

I’ve got the 4 rod turn box but I don’t use the box to set the angles , I just use the croc sticks freehand and my knives are shaving sharp . They are proper easy to use and it doesn’t take long to put a razor edge on them . The sticks do need cleaning every now and then but Lansky do an eraser or you can use soapy water and a sponge .

I used to work at a calf rearers and it was always clean , we used to sweep the yard nearly every day and if we’d brought the sheep in or had a load of calf’s in the pens for dehorning we power washed the yard down . Plastics and twine were put in big sacks and taken to the tip . The farms either side were the same aswell but we once put some sheep on a farm over ribchester/Longridge way and it was manky . The yard was deep in shit and feed sacks , wrapping and netting was everywhere , bits of it stuck on fences and hedges . All they did with it was pile it in the yard and it just got blown

Just checked blankeys channel and he hasn’t got any night vids but Black Country piker has a few

Don’t know about perch but lure fishing for pike at night is worth doing . Phil blakey is well known for it , he did articles in the old p&p mag about it even catching on surface lures . He might have vids on his YouTube channel of him doing it . Think Black Country piker might have some aswell on his channel

This is a couple caught on the fly last year on the canal . Most of the fish we get round here are only little jacks with the occasional bigger one . I’ve only lure and fly fished for them for years now so it could be that they are there but I’m missing them by not using bait
-
Nice flies . Like you I sold my tying gear years ago , I’ll probably get back into to it at some point . I do have some poppers and also some mouse topwaters but I’ve not used them yet but they’ll be getting some use on the canal once it warms up a bit

Had a few hours on the rising fishery on the new predator lake with a mate earlier . It was a bit slow because of the ice cold water but I managed a little jack on a small bunny bug and a better one on the 10inch tinsely thing . While I was sorting the pike rash out so my mate picked my rod up and had a few casts and got another decent one near enough straight away on the same fly .

Is that the one where he’s wearing the horse mask . It doesn’t even look like he’s struggling

Been watching the qualifiers and the giants live stuff and I’ll be watching the final tonight even though everyone knows the result , just hope it shows Thor spit the dummy out
-
I was watching it and I used to like the atmosphere in the crowd but the naff chants of what a boring table , yaya-kolo toure and worst of all stand up if you love the darts every couple of minutes have really begun to bug me to the point I either turn it off or mute it . Saying that , that cross fella is doing alright

I winced a bit when I heard axl rose was replacing Brian Johnson but he’s not bad

When I used to fish there I used to put one rod across to the boats on the other side and drop one straight down off the rod top on a sunken float paternoster rigged big herring right at the corner of the canal/basin . Had pike to 20 from there and loads of other doubles but strangely only ever had one jack
