    Bristol City Council are planning to kill all the fish in one of the local parks to "deter angling". Please take a minute to sign the petition and stop this crazy decision.

    I did think that on my first beat with the shoot, they knew I was new but didnt take names or nothing and then just left a lot of the new beaters to it. Very unproffesional but from what Ive heard theyve struggled on the last few shoots so what goes around comes around. Any way on a good news front managed to secure a vermin control permission last week so all ended well.

    Test curve will have a bearing on casting distance and weight size, to heavy a weight and you could end up snapping the rod. Regards

    Thanks for the replies, It wasnt about the money, if Im honest I was hoping for a bit of vermin control, the dilema I had was how long I attended before I would have won the trust of the keeper and if that would have ever happened as he made it very clear it would not. I was more annoyed at the lack of organisation, I never had my name taken when in attendance so not sure how they were ever going to keep tabs on who was there and how many times I attended. Anyway I did enjoy the beating and wont let it put me off. Regards

    First season of beating for me and after a number of days out there was no pay (50mile round trip), no lunch (breakfast is optional at a cost) no chance of any vermin control (game keepers exact words were “No Chance”) and not a great deal of organisation. I wont be returning but would be interested to know what you would want from your beating experience, Is it pay, secure a permission or do you do it just for the day out and is this the norm or was I expecting too much ? Regards

    Good show all round and one of the best bits of the day, brilliant to see all the crowd invited into the ring at the end and the dogs loving it.

    Avon skin so soft in oil form. If you use any product with deet be careful around plastic as it eats it.

    There's a shoot that were looking for beaters in Hinton nr Bath on the PW forum. If you make contact with them and they invite you along I can pick you up and you can tag along with me. Be aware Im new to beating myself but as previous posters have pointed out it could open some doors. Regards TB

    back for Bristol city on Saturday? £39 on the kop F*ckin joke mate, I've a mate who works at the ground so I got into the ground to look at the new pitch, it looks absolutely brilliant, and the new score board was up and is great. Let's see what the gates are like pal but I think they are going to be affected by this price hike, my mate said the new chairman has got serious ambitions for the club so,let's hope. Not may City travelling and our supporters club has called for a boycott, also streaming live on the net is not going to help. Shame as I always enjoyed a trip to Hillsborough.

    It wasn’t all doom and gloom, particularly liked the bit where as the Looney walked away a couple came up with their grandson and were showing a interest and Alan Blair asked the young un if he would like to go fishing and he said yes. Just a shame the fruitcake wasn’t about to witness it.

    I follow this forum every post every day but have no idea whats going on. Theres me thinking cattys were about a v stick and some elastic and a few stones its sooooooooooooooo complicated
  24. TRUEBRIT66
    Im no expert but the Asda bands I have on my catty are doing ok and the blue appear to be as good as TG imo
  25. TRUEBRIT66
    Thanks, and they are Asda's exercise bands they come in a pack with three strengths (and colours) and are £6 a pack or two for £10. There are a few reviews on you tube and are apparently as good if not better than theraband ! I havent used catapults long so the guys on here may be able to confirm that, but they appear to be ok. I made the mistake of buying a cheap cutter so struggled to get a clean cut, Ive now bought a better one and the band is cutting nice. Regards TB
