  1. Ive just started myself and its fairly straight forward . I got a mate to show me what to do and after a he had done a few rows i had a practice with one of my own using some of that cheap jute , just till i felt confident enough to use my poly. Ive done a couple this afternoon without any disasters other than a few blisters on my hand . Its worth getting something to practice with first like string or jute just to get the hang of it , then your not going to wasting your proper stuff
  2. Looking good tony . Did you manage to get any of them small carabiners
  3. I usually just knock on the door and ask about ferreting , sometimes works sometimes it doesnt . I did pick nearly 700 acre up a few weeks back by asking if i could do the crows though . Just pick an area you fancy , jump in the car and drive round the farms . The worst they will do is say no .
  4. Dont bother with the fox ones they are not reliable, i have some and they are not much cop , like most of the stuff fox make they are overpriced and not very good quality. If you really want some digital scales reuben heaton do some and they are cheaper than the fox ones and you dont here people say anything bad about reubens.
  5. Ill give it a go , i dont usually post pics but the few i have done went on no problem till the other day

    Boxing.

    In that case it will be a landslide victory to Haye More than likely an early knock out . Haye will then start mouthing off about the klitchkos but when it comes down to it he will dodge vitali unless he has no choice but to get it on with him
  7. I had the same problem a couple of days back , i gave up in the end

    Boxing.

    My mum would beat ruiz , hes rubbish thats why everybody who comes up from cruiser pick him .Hes a non puncher and not very good technicaly. Haye can try and hype it up all he wants but the boxing fans know the score . He didnt beat haye before they have never fought , it was carl the cat thompson who sparked him
  9. I find Owner hooks the dogs, I did use Eagal Claw, another good hook I only use owners for bait fishing they are not the cheapest but you get what you pay for . I use the eagle claws on my lures though and they are a good hook too
  10. For most of my bait fishing i use nash 3.5lb tc rods and either shimano baitrunners or diawa big pits and power pro braid , for alarms i use micron p rear alarms (going to upgrade to billys back biters ) and delkims on the front , the photo shows fox front alarms but ive moved them on since the photo was taken. My end tackle is 40lb carboflex wire and owner trebles with a 3,5 to 4 oz free running lead. The photos not showing for some reason even thogh ive resized it
  11. Is it a coincednce that theres been a spate of these type of articles appearing recently in local and national papers . Theres an election due shortly and i read somewhere that labour were going to use hunting to try and turn people away from voting for the tories , i dont think its being to cynical to think the 2 are connected
  12. a mates been having the same problem with his , the last time he had driven a fair way and ended up having to cut his night short

    Alan Green

    I googled him last week and it seems everybody hates him . He got graham taylor dropped because taylor said something he didnt like , and mark saggers left 5 live for talk sport because of green
  14. What breeding is it, maybe some lads will more attention than others with bully bred dogs,, Hes not a bull x , hes collie/grey x deerhound/grey/beddy/grey
  15. I was photographed a couple of weeks back while i was exercising the dog near my house. There was a piece in a local paper not long before about deer poaching and a couple of days before that there was a photo in another local paper of some deer taken by a reader near to where i was with the dog. The fella with the camera must have put 2and2 together and come up with 5 because he stood there for a while photographing me, all i was doing was throwing a ball for the dog , just because its a lurcher i must be up to no good. As far as the deer go ive been watching them for a couple of years withou

    Alan Green

    I thought it was just me , the mans an absolute muppet. Everytime i hear him commentating on united i feel like smashing the radio . He hates united , fergie and the fans and never lets any opertunity to try and put the boot in pass , even when hes clearly talking nonsence.I wish the bbc would stop him doing anymore united matches because he does his best to ruin it for the listeners everytime.
  17. When your shipping out or bringing it back in make sure your rigs in the water and not hanging in the air or it will bounce all over the place and tangle .
  18. You have had a better day than me , 2 jacks would do me at the minute . Ive had 3 blanks in a row now on the calder and local res,s
  19. The general (based on irish gangster martin cahill)
  20. Has anyone seen tonights lancashire telegraphs piece on "barbaric deer poachers" . Its the usual rubbish done to make everthing sound as bad as possible , they have even tried to imply that rabbiting with lurchers is illegal . Lancashire wildlife officer pc carl chew claims that its illegal to kill a mammal with a dog unless fulfilling the criteria for a hunt or to control FOXES and HARES with the landowners permission .
  21. Got bought a pair for christmas and they are already leaking ,steer well clear they are just cheap tat
  22. Dynamites meaty marine boilies are the only bait i bother taking anymore , ive had countless barbel on them in the last 4 or 5 years on the ribble. I have caught on dynamites source and halibut boilies and nash monster puruit in the past but ive yet to find a better one than meaty marine. All i do with them is hair rig one and put 2 whole and 2 crushed ones in a pva mesh bag and thats it , no hemp or pellets just the hookbait and a couple of freebies . It works well on the ribble , ive only blanked once in 5 years doing it like this and i usually get multiple catches of barbel and chub
  23. Pike on lures and barbel are my favourites
