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

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.

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 .

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 .

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

i got one from carrs billington a few months back for £16 . Its a biggish size , ive got around 40 spun poly nets in plus all the other bits and pieces and its not half full , you can even fit the small shovels from dd timber in it . The down side is theres no extra pockets apart from the outside mesh but for the price its well worth it , they do a bigger one for £19 if you need more space

i want a set of them scales he used to weigh that chub , they are magic

The grangers extreme 2 in 1 wash and proof stuff is top gear , 30 degree wash and put in the dryer and its good as new. Grangers is what gortex is proofed with when you buy it. My mate uses nik wax on his and i dont think he has any problems either but its about the same price as grangers so you might as well use the stuff that the company behind goretex recomend

The l&l round here is not as good as it was a few years ago , it could be down to pressure but the amount of pike ive had with traces still in aswell as the idiots ive seen fishing without traces wont help , neither will one of the local clubs who took a couple of thousand out between clayton and blackburn just to keep the few muppets who fish their matches happy disregarding everybody else who pays for the licence to fish there

Just pick an area and drive round it knocking on doors , the farmer will either say yes or no. Some people get cards and letters knocked up with names and numbers on but to be honest speaking to the farmer face to face is probably a better bet

Fam 30 is what i use , we use it on the farm aswell for disinfecting the buildings . Its not cheap at about £30 for 5 litre but its top stuff , we have virkon on the farm aswell but dont bother using it anymore

Mine are, idiots who sit at the lights when they have changed while the cars in front drive off . The people who pull up at the lights and stop about 30 yard from the car in front forcing everyone else to stop then when they get paranoid about the gap start creeping forward. People who when shuting a door only close it part way .

liverpool leeds canal fishing for pike
neil r replied to anthonytomo's topic in Fresh & Salt Water Fishing
I dont use spinners but ive had them on crankbaits like 6inch jakes ,shallow raiders and smaller jerkbaits, spring dawg type soft plastics are probably the best catcher for me though on the canals. Just take whatever colours you fancy, i tend to buy a light and a dark pattern when buying lures then buy other colours if they are good catchers. You can get some storm lures that are like them pike twisters Dave
