chrismdd 787 Posted July 2, 2017 Report Share Posted July 2, 2017 Just took the basic of gear in my pockets, donned the waders and went for a couple of hours freelining for chub on a small stream below a mill. Caught four over two and half pounds with the best two at 3-01 and 3-07. Also caught loads of chublets and lost a few nice fish including one that tore off downstream smashing my hooklink. Great to be in the cooling waters with fish swimming round my feet including some nice roach feeding on the gravels. Met some very pleasant walkers and canoeists who were all keen to discuss the fishing. You can't beat ditching all the gear and having a nice simple dangle. 1 Quote Link to post
Lid 194 Posted July 2, 2017 Report Share Posted July 2, 2017 Sounds great. However we can't see any of your photos! Quote Link to post
chrismdd 787 Posted July 2, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2017 Oh no photos, I'll try again with photobucket (with all its blooming adverts!!) Quote Link to post
chrismdd 787 Posted July 2, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2017 Have the images appeared now? They do on my preview. If not I'll have to try something else. Quote Link to post
mackem 23,662 Posted July 2, 2017 Report Share Posted July 2, 2017 Still no pics mate. Quote Link to post
Welsh_red 4,300 Posted July 2, 2017 Report Share Posted July 2, 2017 I've had the same with all my photobucket pictures on forums . Think might need to go on photobucket and update or something Quote Link to post
chrismdd 787 Posted July 2, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2017 Cheers I'll go and have a look at settings on photobucket. The only issues I've had in the past are when I've put images on and then later on re-organised my photobucket files. What other image hosting websites do you lot use as I must admit photobucket is becoming a pain with all the pop-up adverts and I'm a tight sod that doesn't want to pay a yearly subscription.

chrismdd 787 Posted July 2, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2017 Yep, it looks like photobucket requires updating to allow 3rd party image hosting. Whether this requires a fee I don't know yet. Quote Link to post
