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

neil r replied to Kay's topic in Ferrets & Ferreting
ive only had the meat freeze in the last couple of days but i also give them some complete aswell but i change the water a few times a day so they have something to drink when they need it -

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

I use skinners hypoallergenic duck and rice plus either tripe mince or fresh beef and my lurchers looking good on it. ive used skinners working 23 and thats not bad either , i did buy a bag of skinners museli though and its the only one my dog wont touch

I couldnt believe it , steve had come over from lytham for a day out and we didnt see a feckin thing apart from a couple of deer. Im going to have a look out on the lamp tonight on the footy fields near my house just to see if the rabbits are still around on there

Just got back from a new permission , didnt see a single rabbit over a couple of hundred acre. The holes that we found looked like they hadnt been used for a while. Hopefully going to steve1s permission up carlisle next to bag a few

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 -
If you mean teramicin spray you get it from the vets , or you could ask a local farmer if they will do you a bottle

I had a pair of polar zones for piking and they lasted 2 seasons of winter only use .Never had cold feet in them but they are not the lightest boots around

Isaw documentry on him a couple of years ago , definatly someone you dont want to cross. If he was paid to kill them slowly he would tie them up and put them in a cave and let the rats eat them alive he would leave a video camera aswell to film it

I had the esks for work and the grip is rubbish on them and dont belive the breathable nonsence they put in the leaflets

The council will give you a bit of paper to record times, dates and type of disturbance over a period of time , they might even send them a letter but other than sounding sympathetic and claiming to be cracking down on anti social muppets they do feck all . I had the same problem not long ago and all the council did was send a letter and give a few of us a bit of paper to keep a log . It was that bad in the end that the 5 of us who were the closest nieghbours just gave up and moved. As for giving people like this a slap , they are so thick it doesnt sink in that they are out of order , i gripp

i think it was the main reason for them being put in lakes originally. And despite the name they are not actually carp they are a member of the chub family

got a bit bored last night so i decided to have a look for some permission , only tried 6 farms got 3 polite knockbacks because they already had someone on there, 1 outright miserable muppet you would have thought id p****ed through his letter box instead of knocking on the door. 1 took my number and 1 said yes . its about 200 acre and i can take the dogs on aswell and its only a 10 minute drive from my house. im going to have a drive out again over the weekend and see if i can pick some more up. like one of the farmers said , if you dont ask you dont get
