			<description>What is your favourite way of river fishing?......... I love trotting a float, trying to tempt all kinds of silver fish. 

However, my best river fish ever was/is my very first barbel which I caught a weekend before close season started. A catch I will never forget and will stay in my mind for ever. A beautiful 12lb5oz barbel, which was a little bit too big for my 20 inch  spoon landing net lol.



And to top the day off I even managed to catch my PB chub of 4lb4oz, I can honestly say it was  ...</description>

I am also a FM poster (FM Username KeithM), I see that there are quite a few of us on here.

			<description>Sunday lunch time all three of us set off to the Manderson Trust lakes to fish for a day.

Julz and Michael were both fishing pure carp tactics behind their buzzers and I put out a carp rod and was fishing the pole.

All afternoon we caught nothing but as evening started coming on Julz caught the first fish a lovely common of 6lb 1oz



Less than an hour later she had another common of 6lb 12oz



And shortly after a mirror of 7lb 6oz

			<description>Lower Itchen Fishery.



We had arranged a trip, through a forum, to the Lower Itchen Fishery in search of grayling. I am a great fan of grayling fishing and do get plenty of opportunities to target them as I live near the Hampshire Avon, some of the best Grayling waters around. The grayling, or &quot;Lady of the Stream&quot; is a beautiful fish, keen to feed on cold days and a marvellous fighter, so much so that the return of a grayling to the water takes time as they often come to the net exhausted.

Well snow has gone ( nearly ) and I was feeling fit enough to attempt a small fishing trip, I realised that I had not wet a line for nearly 3 months, seems that too many other things had got in the way.



So we had a late start, knowing it was a frosty night I did not feel the need to get there at daft o'clock, and we set off to the local canal to hunt some tiddlers for points.



We arrived at about 10 am and found the canal still a sheet of ice, the hills near by still  ...</description>

As I have mentioned before, a very Dear friend bought me a lovely centrepin for x-mas, so today was the day to give it it's first trial run.



Due to the cold weather I decided to stay close to home, so my chosen venue was Lords Walk, a local stretch of the Hampshire Avon.

We will be fishing from around 3pm  until midnight, weather looks perfect, so let's hope the fish are playing balls.  <img src="http://illiweb.com/fa/i/smiles/icon_lol.gif" alt="Laughing" longdesc="3" />]]></description>

			<description>Hi Guys and Gals,

 

I'm a newbie round here so go gently with me   

 

I already know Mike and Claudia and I met a few of their friends on the Gloucester canal going back a while.

 

Who's idea was it to have so many emoticons?  

 

Eat your heart out Popey   

 

Is there a gallery on here to put pics in?

 

Steve. </description>

			<description>A dirty weekend with Sabrina 





Claudia and I had a couple of days off around this weekend and had planned to visit Dicky and Jim on the river Severn. The plan was for me to do a bit of Barbel fishing, Claudia was after Zander and possibly a Barbel.



We set of Friday morning and took a leisurely drive to the Severn, we arrived at the tackle shop to get our tickets only to find Jim and Paul in there, so after tips were gathered and the last few essentials purchased, it was off to the river,  ...</description>

Also know &quot;Cakey&quot; and one or two others, mainly by reputation, but lets not get too involved there!  



As for me, I've still to land my first Catfish but have managed to net a few other species every now and then  



Happy to help anyone with any information, tips and to spread the word about our great sport. </description>

After last weekend, where I was too shattered after a business trip, and Claudia's boat trip was cancelled, when neither of us fished (shock!!!!), we had to get out this week. The forecast was looking a bit rough, but we decided to tough it out and go for a trip to the Kennet and Avon canal, it is reasonable local, and if it was a short session due to weather, not a great expense.



6-30 arrived, alarm ringing, wind blowing ( outside too!!) and raining hard!! I must admit  ...</description>

			<description>As my Nans birthday is fast approaching I decided to make something for her. She loves to read and she loves her cups of tea so I designed this bit of furniture to help with both.

It is a little book shelf which can sit beside her armchair or sofa holding both her books and her cup of tea



I was very pleased with the result, and I'm sure my late Grandfather who taught me wood work would have been pleased with it too, especially as I made it out of an old pallet broken up. </description>

I treated myself to some toys this month, I got myself a Shimano Hyperloop fast action 13ft match rod, and a very cheap (£9.99) Shadowlanda Centrepin reel.



The reel is a press steel body but has a very nice bearing in it, heard  very little about it, but for a tenner I thought I would give it a try.



I have never fished a &quot;pin&quot; before so today was a bit of a training day. I did not realise what a pain they are to cast! after about 10 attempts I managed  ...</description>

Friday arrived and it was fishing time. One of the guys at work had arranged a little social match at Abbotsbury 8pm til 1am.



So after a days work, I was met at 4-15 by Claudia and we headed off to the tackle shop, I got some rag, frozen sandeel and party squid, took 5 minutes, the other 45 minutes we spent there were taken up with a certain lady haggling with the shop keeper over some bit of bling she wanted. I will let her tell you about that!

They state that red is not carried through water, so red line will be visible close up, just not at distance.



makes a bit of a mockery of the Matt Hayes comment that fish cannot see red, and his red fishing line business.



maybe now we see why red maggots work for coarse fishing. </description>

my first thoughts were wow what a massive boat, but having a closer look I could see it was made rather well, and liked the design, it looked heavy, but was quite light, and had places to hang your hooks, and for a fish finder if needed, its smooth exterior was nice, and the name was moulded into its sides.

			<description>This is not a starters tip.



When we fish lakes and rivers, we often see carp that we have caught with deep sores on thier flanks and underbelly. These can be caused by a number of ways, Most often caused by spawning, attack by predators, anglers, scratching on sharp objects and some bacterial infections, the biggest cause is stress. If left untreated they most often can turn into an ulcer which after some time may well kill the fish, once the wound is deep enough the fish absorbs water and  ...</description>

			<dc:creator>Admin</dc:creator>
			<description><![CDATA[I just wondered when and why people use unhooking mats.
<br />

<br />
Is it only for big fish, or do you use them all the time?
<br />
Are they ALWAYS the best option, or is soft wet grass on a hot summer day better than a plastic mat left to bake it the sun?
<br />

<br />
Unhooking mats have now become essential kit and I think there use is often overstated, should common sense be used instead of a blanket &quot;unhooking mats to be used at all times&quot; rule?]]></description>
