    Make sure you get the owners permission to night fish with bait first Butch,your lucky,theres loads of waters near you,check them out on google-earth beforehand if your able,keep us informed how it goes http://www.larkwoodfishery.co.uk/p4.htm http://www.rumburghfarm.co.uk/# http://www.williamsongrowers.co.uk/troutfishing.html

    You can pick up a bubble-float and starlight for a couple of quid Butch,pop into your local tackle shop,they will fix you up,I threw a tin of sweetcorn into a lake last night just to see the reaction,within a few minutes the water was boiling in front of us I wouldnt use it as bait though,but I could imagine it would be very,very effective if you want to give it a try

    Once or twice,when fishing alone on isolated waters I have felt a presence And I once saw St Elmos fire when fishing on a beach

    I am off back to Manila later in the year,it IS exciting actually

    I have had enough fallow to realise its effective Chess,I always liked unusual alternative methods of catching a dinner Except for things like fishing where I am a total purist

    I fished a big f**k off expensive beat as well Wonder if he does as well as we did?Without may I hasten to add the local knowledge of a good ghillie The only shooting I will be doing in september old bean is bowhunting rutting fallow deer,thats one thing I wouldnt miss,abroad of course as bowhunting everything in the UK is illegal apart from fish

    I have visited people in a CAT A prison in this country,and visited friends locked up in two different countries abroad,f**k,they have it easy here,one mate in brazil was in a dorm type room with other guys

    I fished on the Tweed once,long time ago when I was a kid,which beat is the old chap going to fish If he is as high-falutin as you say probably best not to mention tandoori nymphs old chap,some people just arent adaptable Grassington,bit far north for me,but I will be passing thataway in september when I cast a fly on a beat on the Wear,my old favourite As for getting picked up by the fuzz,I always shave,force of habit

    I used to do extreme shagging,had a latina girlfriend who stabbed me with a fork,I was always attracted to psychotic women

    He has got a few previous cautions,only minor in the grand scheme of things Going fishing anytime soon Chess? Make sure to stock up on the old tandoorie powder,dust your nymphs between casts

    It wont fit in the shed mate,chest freezers,waders,and a 100 yard seine-net in there I am just trying to work out why theres a line that sinks and one that floats,most odd,I will have a fiddle around with it next week when I have free time,I am sure it wont beat me Its ok FR,they might have done me but I normally come up smelling of roses
  13. mackem
    Get yourself a bubble float,starlight,spinning rod,fixed spool,8lb bs line,and maggots soaked in vanilla,though I did witness a massive amount of fish feeding on nothing more than green-giant sweetcorn last night

    One thing I aint ever needed is a geography lesson chess He is out on police bail,sis is well pissed off,how can a 15 year old attack three adults?And what are the adults doing carrying a metal bar And this is in a NICE part of surrey,he goes to school in Wetbridge FFS
  15. mackem
    Oh yeah,good guess on the mesh Chess,not quite right though,and its not polypropylene,its 4.5 float-line I am just wondering what to do with my cork-butt Rex,where am I going to stick it?
  16. mackem
    Doesnt look like any canopy I would like to see billow open above me Chess,but if you like i will pack it for you No mate,I am the grin and bear it type,typical brit stoicism,besides I dont want to cause a fuss,I saw a net of this type on TV once I am sure if I remember how its supposed to look I can hang this one in an approximation of the TV image I just hope the saltwater fly rods ordered this morning arent ballsed-up This sort of thing could give people the wrong idea about sport fishing

    Someone once said I was lucky in life,I always say luck is skill and opportunity colliding

    My 15 year old nephew was arrested last week Chess,for attacking three grown men,he spent the night in hospital after being hit with a metal-bar,then was arrested after his release,I know all about our boys in Blue,those fine upstanding public"Servants" MAluku?Funny you should say that,heres pics,the stilt village is home to the badjao sea-gypsies,I once spent three months living with them in a village out as sea,I learnt a lot Unheard of fishing techniques?Its best I never mention some of them Chess,lets just say it pays to be flexible and vary your methods to suit the waters
  19. mackem
    Yeah,sorry steve,I just checked last weeks issue,I will give it to the bairn to deliver in the morning,its actually "Whores in Havana"
  20. mackem
    You lying g*t When you threw yourself face down in the bushes beside me you said you were looking for keys as well I think we should have fished for an hour instead of 20 minutes,funny thing is I have just been to Tescos,apparently theres been a rush on and they sold out of Tandoori powder
  21. mackem
    I am always deadly serious when chatting about fishing Rex,no embellishment whatsoever,thats the truth about old bill whizzing past I wondered why he didnt stop and chew the fat,but as joe said,two guys popping out of the bushes,masked up and shouldering big black bags couldnt possibly arouse suspicion Dont worry about the Wear,september is my month,I always found it the best,besides,theres one or two southern rivers I need to check out first,dont forget to let us know how you get on when you go skating on the rink
  22. mackem
    Any idea what sort of cam or housing they use to get that footage?Or are they tanked fish?I would love to get underwater footage of salmon at a jump I know
  23. mackem
    I forgot to share the good news with you Chess,I just got my prospectus through from Sparsholt,Fishery management
  24. mackem
    Well Chess,I aint got a clue about this mate,I mean,you place an order with a reputable fishing-tackle supplier and you expect to get your order right?I opened the parcel,wheres the f***ing blank?Reel-seat?Cork-butt?And what the f**k is this Well,you can almost sense my disappointment at the mix-up in the orders Oh well,I am always one to make the best of a bad situation,I suppose I can still salvage something from this cock-up I just have to remind Joe that he shouldnt set this net across an estuary,or worse still across a river slightly upstream when anadromous fish are running It would
